In this work nickelate nanoparticles were synthesized using a simple and fast new route, which makes use of gelatin as an organic precursor in order to evaluate the performance of the synthesis method to obtain materials and the influence of the strontium replacement on the structural parameters of the powders. Samples of Nd2-xSrxNiO4(x=0and 0.4) were calcined at 700 and900°Cat a heating of10°C/min for 4 hours. X-ray powder diffraction patterns were obtained for all the samples, and the Rietveld Method was applied in order to determine the crystallite size using Scherrer's equation, the lattice parameters, and phase concentration. The results obtained using these techniques confirmed that the main crystal structure consists of the distorted K2NiF4-type tetragonal I4/mmm. In addition, scanning electron microscopy images revealed the formation of nanosized particles.

A YNi2B2C single crystal containing traces of foreign phases was inspected by means of neutron and X-ray diffraction as well as scanning electron microscopy and X-ray spectroscopy methods. The diffraction patterns obtained from the experiments look similar to those expected for a superstructure. Nevertheless, they can be interpreted as crystallographically oriented precipitations of YB2C2and Ni2B within the YNi2B2C crystal, formed during the cooling process. The orientation relation between the lattices was obtained from experimental neutron and X-ray data. Structure refinements of the collected X-ray data were performed by separation of the intensity data of the individual phases. Scanning electron microscopy images of the inclusions found on a polished cross section of the crystal are presented; their chemical composition was determined using wavelength-dispersive X-ray analysis.

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized from an aqueous mixture of Ca(NO3)2·4H2O and (NH4)2HPO4 by a facile single-step refluxing method using polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) as a template. The effects of reaction times, pH, and PSS concentration on the HAp formation were investigated. It was found that the crystalline HAp was obtained under all conditions after refluxing the precursors for 3 and 6 h. The longer refluxing time, the greater the crystallinity and the larger the crystallite size of the HAp nanoparticles. The HAp with poor crystallinity was obtained at pH 8.5; however, the well-crystallized HAp was obtained when reaction pH was increased to 9.5 and 10.5. In addition, the X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that the presence of PSS template caused the reduction of HAp crystallite size along the (002) plane from 52.6 nm of non-template HAp to 43.4 nm and 41.4 nm of HAp with 0.05 and 0.2 wt-% PSS template, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy images of the synthesized HAp revealed the rod-shaped crystals of all samples. The synthesized HAp nanoparticles were modified by l-aspartic acid (Asp) and l-arginine (Arg), having negative and positive charges, respectively. It was found that the zeta potential of HAp was significantly changed from +5.46 to –24.70 mV after modification with Asp, whereas it was +4.72 mV in the Arg-modified HAp. These results suggested that the negatively charged amino acid was preferentially adsorbed onto the synthesized HAp surface.

NiFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by a hydrothermal process, and the effect of temperature on them was studied. The particles were annealed at various temperatures ranging from 413 to 1473 K. Studies were carried out using powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and a vibrating sample magnetometer. The annealing temperature had a significant effect on the magnetic and structural parameters, such as the crystallite size, lattice parameter, magnetization and coercivity.

AbstractA green synthesis method of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) usingCentaurea virgataLam. extract and the isolated compound eupatorin was investigated in this study. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis and zeta potential were used for characterization of AgNPs. The UV-Vis spectrum exhibited a characteristic absorption band at 420 nm for monodisperse nanoparticles. FTIR measurements also proved the formation. X-ray diffraction patterns showed peaks at (110) and (112), which are characteristic for hexagonal crystals and also showed peaks at (111), (200) and (240), which are characteristic for orthorhombic crystals. The TEM images of AgNPs show that the morphology of AgNPs was predominantly spherical. Obtained AgNPs were highly stable according to the zeta potential values. The nitric oxide scavenging activity, which is also related to anticancer activity, of AgNPs was evaluated. It can be concluded thatC. virgataLam. extract and eupatorin can be used as a reducing agent for potential antioxidant AgNP formation.

The title materials are stuffed cristobalites possessing moderate to extreme pseudosymmetry. On the bases of their X-ray powder diffraction patterns, the Mg, Zn, and Cd compounds had been previously reported as cubic and, more recently, the Zn phase as orthorhombic. Newly measured X-ray powder diffraction data demonstrate that all (including the hitherto unknown Co analog) have the Pca21 structure of Na2BeSiO4 at room temperature, but with a widely variable degree of cubic pseudosymmetry. Observed X-ray diffraction data are in good agreement with those calculated by the Rietveld method using a constrained model with Pca21 M2+/Si site occupancy and pseudocentrosymmetric Pcab atom locations. For the most nearly cubic phase, the Cd compound, there is too little deviation in the pattern from cubic symmetry to support atom coordinate refinement even with the constrained model. In these derivatives of the stuffed cristobalite structure family, M2+ and Si atoms form an ordered tetrahedral array which avoids M2+–O–M2+ connections. Potassium atoms fill all of the intervening large cavity sites.

5~15 wt% MgO-CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 (MCAS, fabricated by sol-gel method) glass is used as the sintering aid of AlN ceramics. The sintering is proceeded from 1350oC~1550oC, scanning electron microscope is used to observe the sintered morphologies and X-ray diffraction pattern are used to confirm the crystal structures. From the SEM observations, as 10wt% and 15wt% MCAS is added, AlN ceramics can be densified at 1500oC and 1450oC, which are much lower than the before studies were. From the X-ray diffraction patterns, the crystal phases of MCAS-AlN ceramics are AlN, Al2O3, and cordierite phases. In this study, the dielectric characteristics of MCAS-AlN ceramics are also developed as a function of MCAS content and sintering temperature.

Using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) we studied the distribution of structural parameters, phase composition and alloying elements concentration across the coatings obtained by cladding of chromium and titanium carbides mixture on low-carbon steel. The beam of relativistic energy electrons extracted into the atmosphere was used to form the coatings. The homogeneity in the allying elements distribution is shown to be defined by the lifetime of the melt bath while the phase composition distribution depends on the thickness of the melt layer. Both above parameters are determined by the density of the entered energy.

The matrix graphite of fuel elements (FEs) with infiltration of 2LiF-BeF2(FLiBe) at different pressures varying from 0.4 MPa to 1.0 MPa, has been studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) measurement. The result of XRD reveals that diffraction patterns of FLiBe appear in matrix graphite infiltrated with FLiBe at a pressure of 0.8 MPa and 1.0 MPa. The surface morphology from SEM shows that FLiBe mainly distributes within macro-pores of matrix graphite. PAL measurement indicates that there are mainly two positron lifetime components in all specimens:τ1~0.21 ns and τ2 ­~0.47 ns, ascribed to annihilation of positrons in bulk and trapped-positrons at surface, respectively. The average positron lifetime decreases with infiltration pressure, due to the decrease in annihilation fraction of positrons with surface after infiltration of FLiBe into macro-pores.
