The thermal decomposition process of zirconium sulphate tetrahydrate has been studied. Dehydration, which takes place via a crystalline monohydrate phase, is accompanied by the loss of small amounts of sulphuric acid apparently resulting from internal hydrolysis of the compound. This process gives a non-stoicheiometric zirconium sulphate which may exist in several modifications depending on the vapour pressure of the sulphuric acid around the sample during dehydration. The vapour pressure of the sulphuric acid is in turn controlled by such factors as the particle size of the tetrahydrate preparation, the size of sample, and the temperature and technique used during heating. Equilibration experiments have shown that a-Zr(SO4)2 is the stable anhydrous form. The X-ray powder diffraction patterns of a- and γ- Zr(SO4)2 have been indexed. Above 650� all forms of Zr(SO4)2 decompose to cubic ZrO2 which transforms to monoclinic ZrO2 at 800�.

The thermal decomposition process of K-feldspar-CaSO4-CaO system was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of the product which calcined at 1473K. The results show that KAlSi3O8 firstly is decomposed into KAlSi2O6 and released the SiO2, then has a complex reaction between KAlSi2O6 and CaO, which generated intermediates-K2SiO3 under the operating conditions. K2SiO3 is unstable and reacted with calcium sulfate to generate K2SO4. When the CaO amount is insufficient, the main products are KAlSi2O6 and 2CaOAl2O3SiO2, the potassium existed as K2S2O8; when n (CaO) / n (KAS6) 12:1, the products will further transfer into CaOSiO2 and 2CaO SiO2 and the potassium existed as K2SO4.

The compound Th13Te24O74 was prepared by three independent methods, namely, thermal decomposition of ThTe2O6 in oxygen and argon and direct solid-state reaction of ThO2 and TeO2. The X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the three products, by and large, are similar, except for some differences in intensities and extra diffraction lines. The thermal decomposition of ThTe2O6 was carried out in the streams of oxygen and argon by thermogravimetry at a heating rate of 5 K/min in the temperature range of 725–840 °C. The solid-state reaction of ThO2 and TeO2 (13:24) was carried out in a sealed ampoule at 700 °C. The measured density of this compound is 8.23 g/cm3. An orthorhombic lattice with unit cell parameters, a=11.310±0.005 Å, b=14.064±0.006 Å, c=9.056±0.004 Å, and volume of 1440.419±1.088 (Å)3 was determined for this compound.

Jarosites are widely used in the hydrometallurgical industry of zinc to eliminate iron and other impurities contained in the concentrates. However, these compounds can also incorporate elements of significant environmental concern such as Tl+, Hg2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Cr(VI), and As(V). In this work, the characterization of a synthetic mercury jarosite and its thermal decomposition kinetics are reported. XRD and FTIR analyses confirm that a mercury jarosite—Hg0.40(H3O)0.2]Fe2.71(SO4)2.17(OH)4.79(H2O)0.44—was successfully synthesized. Four mass loss events were observed by thermogravimetric analysis at 290 °C, 365 °C, 543 °C, and 665 °C. The third event corresponds to mercury decomposition into mercury oxide, whilst the forth is related to the jarosite to hematite transformation determined by X-ray diffraction starting at around 600 °C. According to the kinetic parameters (activation energy and frequency factor) of the thermal decomposition process, the fourth stage required the highest energy (Ea = 234.7 kJ∙mol−1), which corresponds to elimination of sulfur and oxygen from the jarosite lattice. Results show that jarosite-type compounds have the capability to incorporate heavy metals into their structure, retaining them even at high temperatures. Therefore, they can be used as a remediation strategy for heavy metals, such as mercury and others elements of environmental concern.

Abstract The hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a ceramic biomaterial with wide application in the bone regeneration. It can be obtained by different routes and different precursors. In this study, the synthesis of HAp was carried out by precipitation and subsequent thermal treatment using different calcium precursors: calcium hydroxide from synthetic origin and calcium oxide obtained from the eggshell. The obtained materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. By SEM, variations of the crystal size and the concentration of agglomerates were observed. FTIR and XRD analyses proved the formation of HAp and how the (mineral and biological) precursors affected the microstructure. The thermal decomposition process of the calcium oxide obtained from the eggshell showed to be more effective for the synthesis of the hydroxyapatite, resulting in more stable morphology and microstructure.

ABSTRACTNanocomposite iron nitride based powders are known to have enhanced magnetic and other physical properties. To further explore their potential for application in various fields, we have performed a systematic study of the iron nitride - alumina and iron nitride - silica systems. Iron nitride powder of composition FexN (2 < x < 4), containing both Fe3N and Fe4N phases, was mechanically milled with Al2O3 or SiO2 powder for 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 hours at the following compositions; (FexN)0.2(Al2O3)0.8, (FexN)0.6(Al2O3)0.4, (FexN)0.2(SiO2)0.8, and (FexN)0.6(SiO2)0.4. Differential thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction were performed to investigate thermal and structural transitions as a function of milling time. As the milling time is increased, the thermal peak corresponding to Fe4N is diminished, while the one corresponding to Fe3N is enhanced. These transitions are correlated with X-ray diffraction patterns. All XRD peaks broaden as a function of milling time, corresponding to smaller particle size. Transmission electron microscopy also reveals a decrease in particle size as the milling time in increased.

The polymer matrix of poly (metyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been introduced with the titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanopowder to study the effects of the TiO2size on the properties of the nanocomposites. The particle size is playing an important role in determining the properties of the nanocomposite. The decrease the filler size has increase the thermal decomposition of the nanocomposites due to the higher amount of the filler between the polymer chains. The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometry (EDS) also were discussed in this paper.

ABSTRACT- Purpose. A physically sound derivation for reciprocal power time (RPT) model for kinetic of drug release is given. In order to enhance ibuprofen dissolution, its solid dispersions (SDs) prepared by cogrinding technique using crospovidone (CP), microcrystalline cellulose (MC) and oleaster powder (OP) as a novel carrier and the model applied to the drug release data. Methods. The drug cogrounds with the carriers were prepared and subjected to the dissolution studies. For elucidation of observed in vitro differences, FT-IR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction patterns, DSC thermograms and laser particle size measurement were conducted. Results. All drug release data fitted very well to newly derived RPT model. The efficiency of the carriers for dissolution enhancement was in the order of: CP>OP>MC. The corresponding release kinetic parameter derived from the model, t50% (time required for 50% dissolution) for the carrier to drug ratio 2:1 were 2.7, 10.2 and 12.6 min, respectively. The efficiency of novel carrier, OP, was between CP and MC. FT-IR showed no interaction between the carriers and drug. The DSC thermograms and X-ray diffraction patterns revealed a slight reduced crystallinty in the SDs. Also grinding reduced mean particle size of drug from 150.7 to 44.4 µm. Conclusion. An improved derivation for RPT model was provided which the parameter of the model, t50%, unlike to previous derivations was related to the most important property of the drug i.e. its solubility. The model described very well drug release kinetics from the solid dispersions. Cogrinding was an effective technique in enhancing dissolution rate of ibuprofen. Elaeagnus angostifolia fruit powder was suggested as a novel potential hydrophilic carrier in preparing solid dispersion of ibuprofen.

The present study utilized the thermoanalytical techniques (TG, DTG, DTA and DSC) to evaluate the thermal behavior of tablets containing paracetamol and marketed as reference, generic and similar. The samples were also characterized by IR, X-ray diffraction and SEM. The TG/DTG curves presented similar behaviour indicanting a low influence of the excipients present in pharmaceutical formulations. The DTA and DSC curves showed an endothermic peak between about 165.0 and 195.0 oC characteristic of melting of paracetamol in all samples. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed similarities and characterized the compounds as crystallines. The micrographs indicated heterogeneity in particle size.
