Abstract In this paper, NiAlCe hydrotalcite was prepared by co-precipitation method and hydrothermal method in different volume fractions of ethylene glycol-water mixed solvent and polyethylene glycol-water mixed solvent, and the effect of photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange under ultraviolet light was studied. Samples were characterized by XRD, XPS, UV-Vis and FT-IR in order to find the reasons for the improvement of photocatalytic performance under co-solvent system. NiAlCe-10%EG(h) and NiAlCe-15%PEG(h) had smaller particle size, which was beneficial to photocatalytic performance. The degradation rate of methyl orange could reach up to 100% in 42 min using NiAlCe hydrotalcite with 10% volume fraction of EG and in 48 min using NiAlCe hydrotalcite with 15% volume fraction of PEG. The photocatalytic effect of NiAlCe hydrotalcite samples prepared by hydrothermal method were better than that prepared by co-precipitation method. This provided a new type of catalyst for the degradation of dyes: preparing with ethylene glycol-water mixed solvent.

A series of Cu-based catalysts for the synthesis of indole by the reaction of aniline and ethylene glycol were prepared and characterized by ICP-AES and XRD. The results indicated that the activity and stability of Cu/SiO2 catalyst was increased after adding Zn, Mn, Cr and Fe promoters. Mn promoter was favorable for the dispersion of Cu, Zn, Cr, Fe and enlarged the specific surface area of catalysts. It could be seen that the catalysts prepared by impregnation method had better stability and higher activity than the catalysts prepared by co-precipitation method. The catalysts with small grain size of Cu had higher activity than those with big grain size. Some catalysts showed excellent performances in this reaction.

The present research describes a simple low-temperature synthesis route of fabricating porous YVO4:Sm nanoplates via a chemical co-precipitation method using commercially available Y2O3, NH4VO3, Sm2O3 and ethylene glycol as the reacting precursors. The as-synthesized YVO4:Sm was thermally treated at 300°C and 600°C for 2 h which is much lower than that of the conventional preparation methods. The obtained samples were characterized by FTIR, XRD, TEM and PL. The photoluminescence measurement revealed that the luminescence intensity was significantly increased with increasing annealing temperature.

Single crystalline nano-sized multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) powders were synthesized through simple chemical co-precipitation method using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as capping agent. We obtained pure phase BiFeO3 powder by controlling pHand calcination temperature. From X-ray diffraction studies the nanoparticles were unambiguously identified to have a rhombohedrally distorted perovskite structure belonging to the space group of R3c. No secondary phases were detected. It indicates single phase structure. EDX spectra indicated the appearance of three elements Bi, Fe, O in 1:1:3. From the UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum, the absorption cut-off wavelength of the BFO sample is around 558nm corresponding to the energy band gap of 2.2 eV. The size (60-70 nm) and morphology of the nanoparticles have been analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM).   Linear M−H behaviour and slight hysteresis at lower magnetic field is observed for BiFeO3 nanoparticles from Vibrating sample magnetometer studies. It indicates weak ferromagnetic behaviour at room temperature. From dielectric studies, the conductivity value is calculated from the relation s = L/RbA Sm-1 and it is around 7.2 x 10-9 S/m.
