Size And Morphology

Mg(x)Fe(1-x)O(magnesiowustite) nanopowder samples synthesized by solution-combustion method and fuel to oxidizer ratio (Ψ=1,1.25) are used as a control parameter to investigate how particle size and morphology vary withΨ. The method is inexpensive and efficient for synthesis of oxide nanoparticles. The average crystallite size ofMg(x)Fe(1-x)Onanoparticles was estimated from the full-width-half maximum of the X-ray diffraction peaks of powders using Debye-Scherrer’s formula; the average crystallite size varies from 16 nm to 51 nm. From X-ray diffraction analysis, it was observed thatMg(x)Fe(1-x)Onanoparticles have cubic structure. The particle size measured by particle size analyzer ranges from 37.7 nm to 73 nm which is in the order of XRD results. Thermal analysis was done by thermal gravimetric-differential thermal analyzer. The particle size and morphology of the synthesized powder were examined by transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope. The crystal size and particle size were compared with some of the most recently published research works by XRD and TEM. FTIR conforms formation of theMg(x)Fe(1-x)O.

Doping of the materials with other metals or transition metals will modify the properties of the nanomaterials. In this work, MgO and Cu doped MgO which are Mg0.95Cu0.05O and Mg0.90Cu0.10O nanomaterials are synthesized using a self-propagating combustion method. The samples are annealed at 900 °C for 24 hours. The phase and purity of the synthesized samples are studied using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and the result revealed that the samples are pure and single phase. The morphology and crystallite size of the pure samples are examined using Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM). The result shows polyhedral morphology with agglomeration of crystallite and average crystallite size of the samples is between 40 to 210 nm. The band gap obtained for MgO nanostructures is 6.38 eV which is lower than bulk MgO of 7.8 eV. The presence of Cu causes the narrowing the band gap energy of Mg0.95Cu0.05O and Mg0.90Cu0.10O samples to 4.28 eV and 3.35 eV respectively.

Chalcogenide Materials

Electrophotographic properties of chalcogenide materials are readily influenced by altering their composition and/or structure. Dark decay and cycle down of photoreceptors utilizing small particle generators are both directly proportional to average crystallite size (ACS). This paper describes a novel chemical method to control the ACS of Se, Te, and Sex Te1−x alloys. These chalcogenide materials are prepared as powders by the reduction or coreduction of SeIV and/or TeIV intermediates with hydrazine, in organic media. To control the ACS of precipitated chalcogens the reaction is carried out at the desired temperature. X-ray diffraction measurements are used to determine the ACS, homogeneity, and phase of these precipitated powders.

Znfe2o4 Nanoparticles

Weak magnetic ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles were prepared by coprecipitation and treated with different concentrations of Fe(NO3)3 solution. Untreated and treated particles were studied using a vibrating sample magnetometer, transmission electron microscope, by X-ray diffraction, X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy and X photoelectron spectroscopy. The results showed that, after treatment, the ZnFe2O4/γ-Fe2O3 forms disphase nanoparticles, with enlarged size, enhanced magnetic properties and with a surface parceled with Fe(NO3)3. The size of the particles and their magnetic properties are related to the concentration of the treatment solution. The particle size and magnetic properties could be controlled by controlling the concentration of treating solution, therefore nanoparticles can be more widely used.

In this work, a novel route is discussed to produce in one step ZnO/Burkeite powders by the modified solution combustion method. The ZnO particles enhance the photocatalytic activity in the degradation of Rhodamine B, in which Burkeite mineral acts as a support due to the pH-dependent morphology of the particle aggregates of the as-synthesized powders. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterization shows the presence of a heterostructure: ZnO/Burkeite. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) image shows a morphological dependence with the pH of the solution used for the synthesis. The results show that the system with the highest degradation (92.4%) corresponds to the case in which ZnO/Burkeite heterostructure was synthesized with a pH 11.

Dy2O3-TiO2 nanocomposites with different weight percentage (0, 2, 4, 8 & 10)Dy were synthesized bysol-gel method and named as 0DT, 2DT, 4DT, 6DT, 8DT and 10DT. The structural properties of these nanocomposites are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. XRD results show that Dy2O3-TiO2 nanocomposites have anatase phase with tetragonal structure. The average crystallite size of the Dy2O3-TiO2 nanocomposites lies between 10 to 18 nm.Coupling of Dy with TiO2 shifts the Raman band to higher wavenumber side indicating the creation of oxygen vacancies in the TiO2 lattice.

The properties of YSZ-Ni-Cr cermet fabricated by Sol-Gel Method（YSZ-Ni-Cr powder was synthesized by coprecipitation method at 850°C for 2 h and was processed into YSZ-Ni-Cr cermet by hot-press sintering at 1350°C for 1 h）was explored. The identification of phases was carried out using a X-ray diffractometer (XRD). The particle size and morphology was determined by electron microscopys(SEM/TEM) The conductivity had a tendency to decrease with increasing temperature. This behavior can be accounted for that there are two conduction paths through the cermet, an electronic path through the (Ni,Cr) metal phase and an ionic path through the ZrO2-Y2O3 phase.

Double Hydroxides

We have successfully intercalated 2-aminoethanesulfonate, a well-known biomolecule taurine, into calcium-containing layered double hydroxides via optimized solid phase intercalation. According to X-ray diffraction patterns and infrared spectroscopy, it was revealed that the intercalated taurine molecules were each directly coordinated to other calcium cation and arranged in a zig-zag pattern. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the particle size and morphology of the LDHs were not affected by the solid phase intercalation, and the surface of intercalates was covered by organic moieties. From ninhydrin amine detection tests, we confirmed that most of the taurine molecules were well stabilized between the calcium-containing LDH layers.

In present investigation, effect of modulation and machining parameters on deformation level of the chips produced during modulation assisted machining (MAM) has been studied. It is shown that disruption in tool-chip contact during modulation assisted machining helps in the formation of discrete chips. Size and shape of the particles produced in MAM can be controlled by varying modulation and machining conditions. Particulates of different shapes and sizes ranging from 100 µm to 5 mm with an aspect ratio of ~10 were produced using MAM. The morphology of the particulates produced was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Deformation in chip particulates was investigated using X-Ray diffraction. The crystallite size and internal strain in particulates were evaluated using Scherrer and Williamson-Hall methods respectively. The crystallite size of the particulates was found to decrease with decrease in their size, whereas internal strain in particulates was observed to increase with decrease in their size. Furthermore, the length of particulates was observed to decrease with an increase in the ratio of frequency of modulation (fm) to frequency of workpiece rotation (fw). However, the corresponding change in microstrain and crystallite size was insignificant with change in this ratio.

Nanoscale LiTaO3 powders with perovskite structure were synthesized using the solvothermal technique with glycol as solvent at 240°C for 12h. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). XRD was used to elucidate room temperature structures using Rietveld refinement. The powders were pure single pervoskite phase with high crystallinity. FESEM and TEM were used to determine particle size and morphology. The average LiTaO3 grain size was estimated to be < 200nm, and TEM images indicated that LiTaO3 particles had a brick-like morphology. In addition, the effect of the temperature on the LiTaO3 power characterisitics was also detailed studied.
