In search of layered antimony(III) materials: synthesis and characterization of oxo-antimony(III) catecholate and further studies on antimony(III) ph…
1998
Abstract A new layered oxo-antimony(III) catecholate, [Sb(C6H4O2)]2O, can be obtained by reacting senarmontite with aqueous catechol. The same reaction performed with valentinite, the other allotropic form of Sb2O3, shows an intermediate hydrate that loses water at about 100°C. Both compounds can be obtained from SbPO4 under appropriate experimental conditions. [Sb(C6H4O2)]2O and the hydrated form, which appear to be layered materials, have been characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric/differential thermal analyses, and infrared techniques. Preliminary evidence of a reversible intercalation of pyridine into [Sb(C6H4O2)]2O was collected. Taking into consideration the possible us…
Synthesis, crystal structure, thermal and magnetic properties of [Mn(H2O)6][Cu(pdta).2H2O (pdta= 1,3-propylenediamine-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetate
2000
[EN] On mixing concentrated aqueous solutions of pdta, Cu(II) and Mn(II) in the ratio 1:1:1 at pH 4.5, single crystals of the complex [Mn(H2O)6][Cu(pdta)]·2H2O (1) (pdta=1,3-propylenediamine-N,N,N'N'-tetraacetate) were obtained. X-ray structural analysis revealed that in the anion [Cu(pdta)]2- the coordination polyhedron around the Cu(II) ion can be described as a tetragonaly distorted CuN2O4 octahedron, whereas the cation [Mn(H2O)6]2+ can be described as a very regular MnO6 octahedron. Thermogravimetric analysis shows that at 110°C compound 1 loses its eight water molecules yielding the anhydrous compound [MnCu(pdta)] (2). Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate …
Analysis of archaeological samples and local clays using ICP-AES, TGâDTG and FTIR techniques
2000
Abstract The spectrochemical and thermal analysis of different archaeological samples as bricks, terra-cotta and local clays were carried out. The concentration of major and minor elements of samples was determined by sequential inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. The method was tested by determining Si, Al, Fe, Ca, Mg, Mn, Pb, Cu, Zn, Ti, Na and K in the standard solutions and reference material GXR-4. The precision of the determination (relative standard deviation) ranged from 0.4 to 1.54%. The clay minerals are the main materials for the production of bricks and terra-cotta figures. Thermogravimetric (TG) and differential (TG–DTG) analysis and Fourier transform infra…
Comparison of Permeation Measurements and Hybrid Density Functional Calculations on Oxygen Vacancy Transport in Complex Perovskite Oxides
2014
The oxygen vacancy (VO••) formation enthalpy (ΔHF) was determined from the effective activation energies obtained in the permeation measurements on a series of solid solutions La0.98–xSrxCo0.2Fe0.8O3−δ (x = 0.125–0.8) and compared with the results of ab initio calculations at finite temperatures based on the hybrid (PBE0) and GGA+U calculations, as well as previous thermogravimetric experiments. The Mulliken atomic charges, magnetic moments, and the Fe-VO•• and Sr-VO•• distances are analyzed. The strong dependence of formation enthalpy of VO•• on the Fe oxidation state due to variation in Sr and VO•• concentrations is discussed.
A Maze of Solid Solutions of Pimobendan Enantiomers: An Extraordinary Case of Polymorph and Solvate Diversity
2017
Over 10 polymorphs and solvatomorphs of the chiral pharmaceutically active ingredient pimobendan were found to lack enantioselectivity in the solid state, accordingly, forming solid solutions of enantiomers, which is reported to be a rare phenomenon. Solid form screening was performed on different enantiomeric composition samples to analyze obtained phases with powder X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric differential scanning calorimetry. For nonsolvated forms, a melt phase diagram has been constructed convincingly showing the existence of stable and metastable solid solutions near the pure enantiomer and around the racemic composition regions. A crystal structure study combined with sol…
Ecocompatible Halloysite/Cucurbit[8]uril Hybrid as Efficient Nanosponge for Pollutants Removal
2016
Hybrid materials based on halloysite nanotubes (HNT) and cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) were prepared with the aim to obtain efficient nanosponges towards hydrocarbons both in liquid and vapor phases. The loading on both HNT surfaces and the hybrid morphology were evidenced by FTIR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy. In order to highlight the interactions in the hybrid 13C {1H} CP-MAS NMR experiments were performed. The aqueous colloidal stability of HNT/CB[8] was highlighted through ζ potential and dynamic light scattering measurements. The HNT/CB[8] composite was employed as nanosponge to capture aromatic oils in aqueous phase as evidenced by fluorescence e…
Preparation and characterization of a novel chitosan/Al2O3/magnetite nanoparticles composite adsorbent for kinetic, thermodynamic and isotherm studie…
2015
Abstract In this study we developed a novel chitosan/Al 2 O 3 /magnetic iron oxide nanoparticle composite acting as an adsorbent for removing Methyl Orange (MO), a model anionic dye, from aqueous solution. The new adsorbent was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) specific surface area, Energy Dispersive spectrometer (EDAX), powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) methods. The MO removal by the developed adsorbent was investigated using batch adsorption technique and all parameters influencing the removal efficiency such as: dose of adsorbent, pH and initial MO concentr…
Ceria-based electrolytes prepared by solution combustion synthesis: The role of fuel on the materials properties
2016
Ce0.8Sm0.2O2 â xpowders were synthesized by solution combustion synthesis using citric acid, cellulose and sucrose as single, or intimately mixed, fuels. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, N2sorption at â196 °C, H2-temperature programmed reduction and thermogravimetric analyses. Textural properties of the powders were shaped by the peculiar employed fuel. The study of reducibility revealed that oxygen vacancies formation is mainly influenced by both parameters, specific surface area and total pore volume. The different tendency toward reduction played a key role in sintering under reducing atmosphe…
A new approach to the synthesis of intermetallic compounds: mild synthesis of submicrometric CoxMy (M = Mo, W; x∶y = 3∶1 and 7∶6) particles by direct…
2002
A simple processing route to cobalt–molybdenum and cobalt–tungsten intermetallics (CoxMy, where M = Mo and W, and x∶y = 3∶1 and 7∶6) has been developed, on the basis of the use of precursors resulting from freeze-drying of aqueous solutions of the appropriate common metal salts. The influence of the preparative variables on the outcomes of this procedure is examined. These compounds are prepared as single phases by thermal reduction of amorphous freeze-dried powders under a hydrogen–argon atmosphere (8% H2), followed by slow cooling of the samples. The materials have been characterised by X-ray powder diffraction, metal analysis, scanning electron microscopy and thermogravimetry under an ox…
