AbstractA lead borate with the composition Pb6B12O21(OH)6 was synthesized through a hydrothermal synthesis, using lead metaborate in combination with sodium nitrate and potassium nitrate. The compound crystallizes in the trigonal, non-centrosymmetric space group P32 (no. 145) with the lattice parameters a = 1176.0(4), c = 1333.0(4) pm, and V = 0.1596(2) nm3. Interestingly, the data of Pb6B12O21(OH)6 correct the structure of a literature known lead borate with the composition “Pb6B11O18(OH)9”. For the latter compound, nearly identical lattice parameters of a = 1176.91(7) and c = 1333.62(12) pm were reported, possessing a crystal structure, in which the localization and refinement of one boron atom was obviously overlooked. The structure of Pb6B12O21(OH)6 is built up from trigonal planar BO3 and tetrahedral BO4 groups forming complex chains. The Pb2+ cations are located between neighboring polyborate chains. The here reported compound Pb6B12O21(OH)6 and “Pb6B11O18(OH)9” were, however, produced under different synthesis conditions. While “Pb6B11O18(OH)9” was synthesized via a hydrothermal synthesis including ethylenediamine and acetic acid, the here reported lead borate Pb6B12O21(OH)6 could be obtained under moderate hydrothermal conditions (240°C) without the addition of organic reagents.

AbstractNew binary lanthanum-aluminum triphosphates were synthesized by thermal-condensation method from H3PO4, La2O3 and Al(OH)3. These pigments could be potentially used as special inorganic pigments; their corrosion-inhibition properties were widely studied. Synthesis conditions were determined on the basis of DTA and TG measurements. The products were also characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. Physical properties — density by pycnometric method, particle size distribution, oil number and critical pigment volume concentration (CPVC), pH and specific conductivity of their aqueous extracts were also determined.

Starch tartarate nanoparticles were prepared by esterification reaction between native sago starch (Metroxylon sagu) and tartaric acid using dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) as a solvent and 2-dimethylamino pyridine (DMAP) as a catalyst at 100°C. The substitution of tartaric acid onto native sago starch was confirmed by the FTIR spectra which showed the presence of carbonyl group absorption band of tartarate ester. The solubility of the as-synthesized starch tartarate nanoparticles was observed to increase linearly with increase in the degrees of substitution. Under optimized synthesis conditions, starch tartarate nanoparticles of mean particle sizes which ranged from 200 nm to 300 nm were produced.

Abstract Synthesis of the starch/silicone composite carried out and its structural characterization by FTIR, Raman and 29Si NMR allowed to identify functional groups of the composite. The synthesis conditions were a starch/silicone mass ratio of 2.0 and a temperature of 150 oC to obtain a yield of 84.63 %. SEM analysis showed that the starch granules were covered by silicone, this caused a decrease in the crystallinity of starch. Composite films have higher thermal stability compared to native starch. Mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of the starch/silicone composite film increase with respect to starch-only films. While the crystallinity of both films is similar. The results obtained in this work indicate that starch/silicone composites can be an alternative to make films with a potential use for the packaging industry.
