Different kinds of solid solutions in the V2O5-ZrSiO4-NaF system by sol-gel processes and their characterization
1993
Abstract In the V2O5-ZrSiO4-NaF system, three kinds of substances have been identified by sol-gel methods depending on the V2O5 amounts in the composition. Their characterization by X-ray diffraction, measurements of unit cell parameters, UV-visible (UV-V) spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis and lab colour parameter determination allow the consideration of three kinds of solid solution in the zircon lattice: (a) V+5,V+4-ZrSiO4, thermally stable and with a deep green colour; (b) V+4-ZrSiO4, thermally stable and blue coloured, made by the sol-gel method and with V2O5 amounts lower than 0·03 mol per formula weight; and (c) Na+,F−,V+4-ZrSiO4, a solid solution with a deep blue-turquoise …

Synthesis and characterization of V2O5SiO2ZrO2 pigments by sol-gel method
1992
Abstract Polymeric gels in the V2O5 SiO2 ZrO2 system were prepared from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), zirconium(IV)-n-propoxide and vanadium(IV) oxyacetylacetonate, precursors. The effects of prehydrolysis time of TEOS and drying gel method on the stabilization of tetragonal zirconia in the silica amorphous matrix, nucleation and growth of the zircon (ZrSiO4) phase, and stabilization of the blue and green stains of vanadium zircon were studied. Results provide evidence that long time of prehydrolysis and fast drying do not favour zircon crystallization but stabilize the tetragonal zirconia in the amorphous matrix.
Synthesis of Uvarovite Garnet
1989
A garnet with interesting optical properties is synthesized by means of the ceramic method and the formation of gels. Colloidal silica or tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) is used as a starting reagent in the latter method of synthesis, together with nitrate and chloride salts of the remaining components. Use is made of ultraviolet-visible and infrared spectroscopy techniques and X-ray diffraction in studying the evolution of the system. Formation of the garnet phase at lower temperatures is observed when using the gel methods, as well as the absence of chromates during the process in the samples which contained chlorides.
Synthesis of V-ZrSiO4 solid solutions
1990
This letter describes the results of the preparation of V-ZrSiO 4 solid solutions from a sol or alkoxide and solute salts. This technique allows a greater degree of product formation to be achieved at lower temperatures, as well as the possibility of studying the characteristics of possible solid solutions
A rietveld study of the cation substitution between uvarovite and yttrium-aluminum synthetic garnets, obtained by sol-gel method
1994
A series of synthetic garnets solid solutions with compositions between Y 3 Al 2 Al 3 O 12 (Y-Al garnet) (YAG) and Ca 3 Cr 2 Si 3 O 12 (uvarovite) was synthesized using the sol-gel method. The expected general formula is (Ca x Y 1-x ) 3 (Cr x Al 1-x ) 2 (Si x Al 1-x ) 3 O 12 where x=0 to x=1. The cation distribution in dodecahedral, octahedral and tetrahedral sites and bond distances in these synthetic garnets were determined using the Rietveld method. It shows the incomplete substitution in small sites. The smaller site the smaller substitution there is
The stoichiometry of blue vanadium doped zircon obtained by sol-gel methods
1992
Abstract In this study, Sol-Gel processes in aqueous solution were used to investigate the stoichiometry of the V/1bZrSiO 4 solid solutions achieved by this method. Compositions with a formal stoichiometric defect in: (a) ZrO 2 ([ZrO 2 ] 1−2x [SiO 2 ] [V 2 O 5 ] x ), and (b) in SiO 2 ([ZrO 2 ] [SiO 2 ] 1−2x [V 2 O 5 ] x ), x=0.02, 0.04, 0.05 and 0.10 have been prepared. X Ray Diffraction analyses in fired samples (1200°/3 days) showed that cristobalite and monoclinic zirconia appear as residual crystalline phase in (a) and (b) compositions respectively, except in sample (a) with x=0.02 in which no residual phase was detected and therefore is considered stoichiometric. This sample and sample…
Effects of ZrO2 precursors on the synthesis of V-ZrSiO4 solid solutions by the sol-gel method
1992
The preparation of V-ZrSiO4 solid solutions starting from different ZrO2 precursors by using sol-gel methods is reported. The starting materials were hydrolysed and the dried gels were fired at a temperature between 500 and 900 °C with soaking times of 12h. The organic character of zirconia precursors was stronger, i.e. the starting material had more carbon atoms, a higher temperature was necessary to make the first crystalline phase appear (ZrO2(tetragonal)) and the temperature range for the whole phase transformation was narrower. In all dried gel samples the presence of infrared bands which might be associated with either Si-O-Zr or Si-O-V was not observed. On the other hand, some bands …
Preparation and characterization of gels with garnet structure: A3B2C3O12, using ‘non-classical’ solvents
1992
Abstract Synthesis and characterization of some crystalline garnets by sol-gel techniques is described. The effects of emthanol, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), CH2Cl2 and toluene solvents on gelation of TEOS are considered. Multicomponent gel formation in systems with stoichiometries 3CaO·Cr2O3·3SiO2 and 3CaO·Al2O2 was studied using DMSO, a polar solvent, and toluene, an apolar solvent. The dried gel was thermally treated and the powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy.
The preparation and thermal evolution of polymeric gels with garnet stoichiometry in the CaOAl2O3SiO2 and CaOCr2O3SiO2 systems
1990
Abstract The synthesis of gels with garnet stoichiometry in the CaOAl 2 O 3 SiO 2 and CaOCr 2 O 3 SiO 2 systems and their evolution in thermal processing have been studied. Dried gels with the stoichiometry 3CaO.Al 2 O 3 .3SiO 2 show a homogeneous aspect without detectable crystalline phase. The thermal evolution of these gels indicates no formation of grossularite at temperatures up to 1000°C after 12 h. In the uvarovite garnet samples, 3CaO.Cr 2 O 3 .3SiO 2 , a small amount of crystalline phase was detected in the dried gels. The homogeneity of the gels was checked by scanning electron microscropy. The infrared study of these polymeric gels confirmed the presence of SiOMe (MeCr 3+ …
