Intercalation of [M(ox)3]3− (M=Cr, Rh) complexes into NiIIFeIII-LDH
2010
Abstract Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH) containing paramagnetic NiII and FeIII ions in the hydroxide layers and chromium or rhodium oxalate complexes at the interlayer space were prepared by ion exchange from a NiFe-LDH precursor with sebacate anions between the hydroxide layers. The precursor was synthesized by coprecipitation at controlled pH in order to avoid the formation of solid phases different from LDH. Magnetic studies demonstrated that both LDHs, NiFe–Cr(ox)3 and NiFe–Rh(ox)3, exhibited a behaviour similar to the precursor. Nevertheless, the substitution of intercalated sebacate anions with oxalate complexes compresses the LDH basal spacing, increasing the intensity of dipolar in…
Luminescence properties of neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet obtained by the co-precipitation method combined with the mechanical process.
2005
Nanopowders of yttrium aluminium garnet Y3Al5O12 (YAG) doped with neodymium ions were obtained by the co-precipitation method from the reaction of aluminium and yttrium nitrate and neodymium oxide with ammonia. After washing and drying the hydroxide precursors were calcined at 500, 700, 800 and 900 °C for 1 hour and at 1000 °C for 3 hours. This product was treated by ball milling in a zirconia vial for 0.5, 1.5 and 10 h in order to achieve smaller nanoparticles. The structure, microstructure, morphology and optical properties were investigated by means of diffractometric, microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. The course of the amorphous-to-crystalline transformation was complete after c…
Synthesis of YAG nanopowder by the co-precipitation method: Influence of pH and study of the reaction mechanisms
2012
International audience; YAG nanopowders with an average grain size of 30 nm have been successfully synthesized by the co-precipitation method using nitrates with precipitant of ammonium hydrogen carbonate. The influence of precipitation conditions such as pH, aging time and calcination temperature on the formation of secondary phases has been studied. The accurate control of pH value at every stage of precipitation process is crucial to avoid the presence of YAM (Yttrium Aluminium Monoclinic, Y4Al2O9) and yttrium oxide (Y2O3) after calcination. The reaction mechanisms have been investigated using different techniques such as infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction and thermal analyses. The…
Synthesis of Multifunctional Inorganic Materials
2018
Abstract Both, novel and older widely and routinely used methods of chemical synthesis fornew multifunctional inorganic (nano) materials with different sizes and morphologies are reviewed and summarized in this chapter. Illustrative examples of micro- and nanoparticle preparations are provided regarding different applications: renewable and sustainable energy harvesting, water splitting and hydrogen generation, fuel and solar cell devices, luminescent materials for white light–emitting diodes and clean environment. We give our perspective on the current status of the topic: methods of colloidal chemistry, coprecipitation, reverse-micelle technique, sol–gel, spray pyrolysis, microwave-assist…
Magnetic polyorganosiloxane core–shell nanoparticles: Synthesis, characterization and magnetic fractionation
2010
Abstact Here, we present the synthesis, characterization and magnetic separation of magnetic polyorganosiloxane nanoparticles. Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with average particle radii of 3.2 nm had been synthesized by a simple coprecipitation process of iron(II) and iron(III) salt in basic solution. Afterwards, the particles were successfully incorporated into a polyorganosiloxane network via a polycondensation reaction of trimethoxymethylsilane (T), diethoxydimethylsilane (D) and the functional monomer (chloromethylphenyl)trimethoxysilane (ClBz-T) in aqueous dispersion. A core–shell system was chosen to increase the flexibility of the system concerning size, composition and functional…
Spark plasma sintering of cobalt ferrite nanopowders prepared by coprecipitation and hydrothermal synthesis.
2007
International audience; Cobalt ferrite exhibits a high coercivity at room temperature and a strong magnetic anisotropy compared to the other spinel ferrites and, consequently appears as an interesting material for permanent magnets and high-density recording. The magnetic properties depend also on the crystallite size. In order to keep the powder properties in a bulk material, dense nanostructured cobalt ferrite has to be sintered. A field activated sintering process like spark plasma sintering (SPS) may be promising for such challenge. The present paper deals with: (i) the preparation of cobalt ferrite by two methods: coprecipitation and hydrothermal synthesis in supercritical water; (ii) …
Effect of Ce3+ concentration on persistent luminescence of YAGG:Ce3+,Cr3+,Nd3+ nanophosphors obtained by the co-precipitation method
2020
Abstract Synthesis of Y3Al2Ga3O12 garnet (YAGG) nanophosphors co-doped with Ce3+, Cr3+, and Nd3+ ions by co-precipitation is reported. The effect of Ce3+ concentration on the structure of garnet and on optical properties including persistent luminescence was investigated. The X-ray diffraction measurements showed that single garnet phase was obtained. The contraction of the crystallites size was observed with increasing the cerium concentration. The combined emission of three used co-dopants together allows to extend persistent luminescence spectral range. The photoluminescence, excitation and persistent luminescence spectra were collected and the optimal Ce3+ concentration for the highest …
Multielemental determination of trace mineral elements in seawater by dynamic reaction cell inductively coupled plasma- mass spectrometry after Al(OH…
2020
Abstract A simple method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of 12 trace mineral elements in seawater using, in some cases, several target isotopes (51V, 52Cr, 55Mn, 58,60Ni, 59Co, 63,65Cu, 64,66,68Zn, 75As, 78Se, 111,113Cd, 206,207,208Pb y 238U) in seawater. The method combined a simple and fast Al(OH)3 co-precipitation method, to pre-concentrate mineral elements and to separate them from the seawater matrix, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry using the dynamic reaction cell with NH3 gas to do quantitative determinations free from polyatomic interferences. The recoveries of trace elements after Al(OH)3 co-precipitation varies between 80% for 111Cd and 116% f…
Exploring the high-pressure behavior of the three known polymorphs of BiPO4: Discovery of a new polymorph
2015
We have studied the structural behavior of bismuth phosphate under compression. We performed x-ray powder diffraction measurements up to 31.5 GPa and ab initio calculations. Experiments were carried out on different polymorphs: trigonal (phase I) and monoclinic (phases II and III). Phases I and III, at low pressure (P < 0.2-0.8 GPa), transform into phase II, which has a monazite-type structure. At room temperature, this polymorph is stable up to 31.5 GPa. Calculations support these findings and predict the occurrence of an additional transition from the monoclinic monazite-type to a tetragonal scheelite-type structure (phase IV). This transition was experimentally found after the simultaneo…
Spontaneous Magnetization in Ni−Al and Ni−Fe Layered Double Hydroxides
2008
Layered double hydroxides containing paramagnetic Ni (II) and diamagnetic/paramagnetic Al (III)/Fe (III) ions have been prepared and characterized. Ni 2Al(OH) 6(NO 3). nH 2O ( 1), Ni 2Fe(OH) 6(NO 3). nH 2O ( 2), Ni 2Fe(OH) 6(C 6H 8O 4) 0.5. nH 2O ( 3), and Ni 2Fe(OH) 6(C 10H 16O 4) 0.5. nH 2O ( 4) were prepared by coprecipitation at controlled pH as polycrystalline materials with the typical brucite-like structure, with alternating layers of hydroxide and the corresponding anions, which determine the interlayer separation. Magnetic studies show the appearance of spontaneous magnetization between 2 and 15 K for these compounds. Interestingly, the onset temperature for spontaneous magnetizati…
