Organic-inorganic hybrid materials prepared by sol-gel approach have attracted a great deal of attention in material science. Organic polymeric part of the composite provides mechanical and chemical stability whereas the inorganic part supports the ion-exchange behaviour and thermal stability and also increases the electrical conductivity. Such modified composite materials can be applied as an electrochemically switchable ion exchanger for water treatment, especially water softening. Polyaniline zirconium(IV) tungstoiodophosphate nanocomposite ion exchanger is prepared by sol-gel method. Polyaniline zirconium(IV) tungstoiodophosphate nanocomposite ion exchanger is synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectra, ultraviolet-visible spectra, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, ion exchange, conductivity, and antimicrobial studies. A mechanism for the formation of the polyaniline zirconium(IV) tungstoiodophosphate nanocomposite ion exchanger was discussed. The route reported here may be used for the preparation of other nanocomposite ion exchangers.

Five new types of microporous beryllophosphates were hydrothermally synthesized using BeO-P2O5-R-MCl (or MCl2)-H2O, R being cyclohexylamine (CHA), pyrrolidine, 1-butylamine or triethylamine, M alkali or alkali earth cation. X-Ray diffraction patterns (XRD), infrared (IR), TG-DT and elemental analysis show that the crystalline beryllophosphates have novel, unique framework structures, composed from basic units of tetrahedral PO4 and BeO4. These materials exhibit zeolite-like adsorption and ion-exchange properties. Factors affecting the product crystallization (as e.g. pH), type of cation and composition of reaction mixture are discussed.

The research of tungsten-antimony crystalline acid (TACA) structural transformations in the condition of ion-exchange and thermolysis of its substituted M+, H+-forms (M+ – Li, Na, K, Ag) were conducted. The data of thermogravimetric and qualitative X-ray phase analyses made it possible to conclude that the thermolysis of TACA and its derivatives proceeds in a wide temperature range from 300 to 1150 K being accompanied by the removal of crystalline water molecules with the formation of phases mixture containing complex antimony oxides of the ( -,  - Sb2O4) modification and WO3. It was shown that compounds based on hydrated forms of monovalent metal antimonates-tungstates are stable up to 1023 K with a pyrochlore-type structure. For pyrochlore-like phases, a monotonic dependence of unit cell parameter a on ion-exchange degree α and the ionic radius of metals r was revealed indicating the formation of solid solutions Мх(Н3О)1–хWSbO6 nН2О (M+ – Li, Na, K, Ag; 0.0≤х<1.0; 0.0≤n<2.0) with a limited range of solubility from the crystal chemistry point of view. Within the framework of the Fd-3m space group, based on the data of X-ray diffraction analysis (Rietveld method), the structural characteristics of TACA and its substituted M+, H+-forms were refined, and a model for populating the corresponding metal ions by crystallographic positions of the pyrochlore-type structure was proposed. Using a complex of physicochemical methods (thermogravimetric, X-ray diffraction analyses and IR spectroscopy), a correlation between the composition of the obtained compounds, structural disorder, and ion-exchange properties were determined. According to the data of thermogravimetry and IR spectroscopy, it follows that the degree of compounds hydration analyzed depends on the nature of the alkaline ion. This allows to conclude that lithium and sodium ions are located in 16d– positions, dragging neutral water molecules into the structure occupying 8b-positions. In this case, potassium ions can partially occupy both 16d- and 8b-positions of the structure.

AbstractFor the low-symmetry system of the ion-exchanger zirconium phosphate the influence of irradiation and ion-exchange on the crystal disorder has been investigated by means of photographic x-ray diffraction methods. The weakening and the shifting of Bragg reflections and the broadening of maxima of diffuse scattering allow the estimation of the concentration and the strength of defects induced in this system.

A new crystalline layered inorganic ion exchanger tin(IV) arsenophosphate with the formula Sn(HAsO4)(HPO4)•H2O has been prepared by refluxing the amorphous precursor. This exchanger has been characterized by X-ray powder pattern, chemical analysis, IR spectra, and thermal dehydration. Its ion exchange behaviour towards sodium ions is reported. The exchanger has an exchange capacity of 5.36 mequiv./g for Na+. The performance of tin(IV) arsenophosphate is compared with crystalline tin(IV) phosphate and arsenate. Keywords: cation exchanger, crystalline tin(IV) arsenophosphate, ion exchange, thermal behaviour, X-ray studies.

AbstractPure and Nb-doped zirconium germanate materials of composition K2-xZr1-xNbxGe3O9.H2O where x = 0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.25 with the structure of the mineral umbite have been successfully synthesised. The parent material displays negligible ion exchange of K+ for Cs+ but the doped materials shows much improved exchange. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction shows substantial peak splitting which varies with increasing niobium content. Preliminary Rietveld refinements suggest a two phase model with a caesium and potassium rich doped umbite phase.

Visible-light-responsive material based on Rhodium doped on titanium dispersed on dealuminated clinoptilolite (TiO2/HCP) was synthesized via a combination of the sol-gel method and photoreductive deposition technique. The photocatalyst surface characterization, structural and optical properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and UV-visible spectra (UV-VIS). Doping TiO2/HCP with Rh imparts a red shifting of the absorption band into the visible light region according to UV-VIS. The prepared composite materials were evaluated for their photocatalytic activities on pentachlorophenol (PCP) degradation under sunlight irradiation. The Rhodium doped TiO2/HCP exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity and can be considered as a potential photocatalyst in wastewater treatment.

Abstract Y3+ substituted strontium hexaferrites having chemical composition SrYxFe12-xO19 (x= 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) were successfully synthesized by sol-gel auto-combustion method. The structural and morphological studies of prepared samples were investigated by using X-ray diffraction technique, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The X-ray diffraction pattern confirmed the single-phase hexagonal structure of yttrium substituted strontium ferrite and the lattice parameters a and c increased with the substitution of Y3+ ions. The crystallite size also varied with x content from 60 to 80 nm. The morphology was studied by FE-SEM, and the grain size of nanoparticles ranged from 44 to 130 nm. The magnetic properties were investigated by using vibrating sample magnetometer. The value of saturation magnetization decreased from 49.60 to 35.40 emu/g. The dielectric constant decreased non-linearly whereas the electrical dc resistivity increased with the yttrium concentration in strontium hexaferrite.

AbstractThis study presents a preparation of SrFe12O19– SrTiO3 nanocomposite synthesis via the green auto-combustion method. At first, SrFe12O19 nanoparticles were synthesized as a core and then, SrTiO3 nanoparticles were prepared as a shell for it to manufacture SrFe12O19–SrTiO3 nanocomposite. A novel sol-gel auto-combustion green synthesis method has been used with lemon juice as a capping agent. The prepared SrFe12O19–SrTiO3 nanocomposites were characterized by using several techniques to characterize their structural, morphological and magnetic properties. The crystal structures of the nanocomposite were investigated via X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology of SrFe12O19– SrTiO3 nanocomposite was studied by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The elemental composition of the materials was analyzed by an energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). Magnetic properties and hysteresis loop of nanopowder were characterized via vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) in the room temperature. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra of the samples showed the molecular bands of nanoparticles. Also, the photocatalytic behavior of nanocomposites has been checked by the degradation of azo dyes under irradiation of ultraviolet light.

A citric acid anionic surfactant has been applied for nano manganese ferrite (MnFeO3) fabrication using sol gel method. The calcinations have been varied for 300, 600 and 800oC. The UVDR (UV-Vis Diffused Reflectance) analysis shows a high absorptive band gap after 400 nm for the 600oC calcinated MnFeO3. The DTA (Differential Thermal Analysis) profiles exhibit remarkably trapped volatile matters (H2O, CO2, and NO2) in the fabricated MnFeO3 under sol gel heat treatment at 100oC and the peaks disappeared as the calcination increased to 600oC. As the temperature elevated from 100 to 300oC, the absorption peaks of volatile components are disappeared as demonstrated clearly by the FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) spectra of the fabricated material, which 3393 cm-1 corresponded to OH group, 1624 cm-1 to CO group, and 1384 cm-1 to NO group. The XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) spectra show clearly the alteration process from amorphous to crystalline structure as the calcinations increased from 300 to 600oC. In addition, the TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) analysis exhibits parts of the fabricated MnFeO3 found in cubic nano size of 15-40 nm under interested calcinations and the result is in agreement with that obtained by XRD investigation.
