Introduction/purpose: Ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) is usually used for the preparation of submicronic and nanosized gold powders. This is a simple method for a synthesis from an aerosol containing dissolved metallic salts such as gold chloride, gold nitrate, and gold-acetate, obtained in the ultrasonic field using frequencies ranging from 0.8 to 2.5 MHz. Methods: The USP method combines aerosol formation in an ultrasonic field, transport of an aerosol with a carrier gas to the reactor and final reduction of HAuCl4 with a used gas such as hydrogen and carbon monoxide. The thermal decomposition of gold acetate takes place in a neutral atmosphere such as nitrogen and argon at elevated temperatures. The chemical reduction of HAuCl4 takes place in the aqueous phase using sodium citrate and sodium boride after heating water solution. Results: Powders of gold were obtained at room temperature using hydrogen reduction in an ultrasonic field at room temperature from HAuCl4 using a frequency of 0.8 MHz. The obtained gold particles were analysed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy disperse spectroscopy (EDS). The formed particles are round and agglomerated. An increase in temperature to 260°C and 500°C leads to the formation of spherical and cylindrical gold particles. Conclusion: New improved equipment for an ultrasonic spray pyrolysis synthesis of gold powder from HAuCl4 with hydrogen reduction was offered by PRIZMA, Kragujevac, Serbia, enabling a controlled reduction process with better prevention of piezo transducers in an ultrasonic field and increased aerosol production and its transport to the reaction furnace.

Background: This review provides a closer look at recent work in the field of fireworks manufacture, which could see the replacement of micron-sized particles with their nano-scaled counterparts. Moreover, we also discuss micron-sized particles as well as nanoparticles (NPs) from K, Fe, Al, Ti, Ba, etc., that are produced in the atmosphere as a result of these fireworks. One of the possible technological substitutes for fireworks is presented in detail, i.e., the use of ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) technology. Method: We searched Google, Web of Science and PubMed for a literature survey of fireworks and their products: firecrackers, micron-sized and nanoparticles. Moreover, we used some of our own knowledge and experimental data to strengthen the possibility of simulating the synthesis of firework products on the laboratory scale. Results: The use of nano reactants and oxidisers has seen a substantial increase in the sound efficiency and a decrease in the amount of chemicals used, making fireworks more eco-friendly. The application of Al- and Ti-based nano flash powder in the size range from 35 nm to 50 μm resulted in a significant improvement in the ignition properties of the fireworks. Under changing aerodynamic conditions, it is difficult to collect them as samples for real-time monitoring, needed for their characterization or the testing of their harmfulness under laboratory conditions. As a result, NPs below 100 nm in the surroundings could be easily inhaled into the lungs and cause more pulmonary and respiratory problems than micron-sized particles. USP produces nanoparticles in the laboratory that could replace the conventional micron-sized firecracker raw materials, or nanoparticles that are similar to those formed by fireworks. It will also help to identify the physiochemical properties of the airborne particulates in order to understand and evaluate their impact. </P><P> This review could be valuable for a controlled economic synthesis through USP, and in the use of nanopowders in pyrotechnology that could reduce pollution to a great extent, thus contributing to the growth and good practise of the fireworks industry. With respect to the USP synthesis, we have also discussed in detail the physical (size, shape) and chemical (composition) characteristics of Al2O3 and TiO2 NPs from different precursors and their temperature ranges. An in-depth explanation for a comparative analysis for the formation mechanism of nanoparticles through both fireworks and USP is presented in the final section. We can produce nanoparticles in the laboratory with ultrasonic spray pyrolysis that have similar properties to those produced from fireworks and can then be used for further testing.

AbstractThe strong facet-dependent performance of glass-supported CeO2 thin films in different applications (catalysis, smart windows, etc.) has been the target of diverse fundamental and technological approaches. However, the design of accurate, cost-effective and scalable methods with the potential for large-area coverage that produce highly textured glass-supported CeO2 thin films remains a technological challenge. In the present work, it is demonstrated that under proper tuning conditions, the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis technique enables one to obtain glass-supported polycrystalline CeO2 films with noticeable texture along both the (100) and (111) directions, as well as with randomly oriented crystallites (no texture). The influence of flow rates, solution molarity, and substrate temperature on the texture and morphological characteristics, as well as optical absorption and Raman response of the deposited films, is evaluated. The obtained results are discussed on the basis of the combined dependence of the CeO2-exposed surfaces on the thermodynamic stability of the corresponding facets and the reaction kinetics, which modulate the crystallite growth direction.
