We report on the structural, optical, and magnetic properties ofα,β-NiMoO4nanorods synthesized by annealing the NiMoO4:nH2O precursor at 600°C for 10 minutes in a domestic microwave. The crystalline structure properties ofα,β-NiMoO4were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and Raman (FT-Raman) spectroscopies. The particle morphologies and size distributions were identified by field emission microscopy (FE-SEM). Experimental data were obtained by magnetization measurements for different applied magnetic fields. Optical properties were analyzed by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) and photoluminescence (PL) measurements. Our results revealed that the oxygen atoms occupy different positions and are very disturbed in the lattice and exhibit a particular characteristic related to differences in the length of the chemical bonds (Ni-O and Mo-O) of the cluster structure or defect densities in the crystallineα,β-NiMoO4nanorods, which are the key to a deeper understanding of the exploitable physical and chemical properties in this study.

When the size of a material is decreased to the nanoscale, the effects of forces that are not influential on a macroscopic scale become increasingly important and the electronic structure is improved. The material then exhibits significantly different physical and chemical properties than in the bulk state. The smaller the size of the material, the more exposure it receives to the nano effects, and the physical properties can be changed via size control. In this study, Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 ferrite nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning, and the sizes of the prepared samples were controlled to ensure different average diameters by controlling the polymer concentration of the precursor solution. Field emission scanning electron microscope images showed that the samples had average diameters of 224 to 265 nm. The single crystal phase of Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 and the different crystallite sizes of 13 to 20 nm were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. The magnetization behavior of the samples was measured using a vibrating sample magnetometer and the result confirmed that the samples had different magnetic properties, according to the diameter and crystallite size of the nanofibers. This study suggests that control of magnetic properties and excellent electrical conductivity in a one-dimensional nanostructure can be positively applied to improve the performance of a filler for the electromagnetic-interference shielding film.

Al2o3 Catalyst

AbstractWith the purpose of studying the influence of NO/O2 on the NOx storage activity, a Pt-Ba-Ce/γ-Al2O3 catalyst was synthesized by an acid-aided sol-gel method. The physical and chemical properties of the catalyst were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) methods. The results showed that the composition of the catalyst was well-crystallized and the crystalline size of CeO2 (111) was about 5.7 nm. The mechanism of NO and NO2 storage and NOx temperature programmed desorption (NO-TPD) experiments were investigated to evaluate the NOx storage capacity of the catalyst. Pt-Ba-Ce/γ-Al2O3 catalyst presented the supreme NOx storage performance at 350℃, and the maximum value reached to 668.8 μmol / gcat. Compared with O2-free condition, NO oxidation to NO2 by O2 had a beneficial effect on the storage performance of NOx. NO-TPD test results showed that the NOx species stored on the catalyst surface still kept relatively stable even below 350℃.

ABSTRACTThe physical and chemical properties of fly ash produced at Ottumwa Generating Station have been monitored since April, 1985. The fly ash is produced from burning a low sulfur, sub-bituminous coal obtained from the Powder River Basin near Gillette, Wyoming. One-hundred and sixty samples of fly ash were obtained during the two year period. All of the samples were subjected to physical testing as specified by ASTM C 311. About one-hundred of the samples were also subjected to a series of tests designed to monitor the self-cementing properties of the fly ash. Many of the fly ash samples were subjected to x-ray diffraction and fluorescence analysis to define the mineralogical and chemical composition of the bulk fly ash as a function of sampling date. Hydration products in selected hardened fly ash pastes, were studied by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The studies indicated that power plant operating conditions influenced the compressive strength of the fly ash paste specimens. Mineralogical and morphological studies of the fly ash pastes indicated that stratlingite formation occurred in the highstrength specimens, while ettringite was the major hydration product evident in the low-strength specimens.

Zirconium alloys have many applications in industry in services too harsh for stainless steels, nickel alloys or where a noteworthy improvement in service life may be achieved, by choosing zirconium alloys instead of other metals, such as high permeability to thermal neutrons and excellent corrosion resistance in nuclear reactor environments. Mixing alloying elements, such as niobium, molybdenum, tin, titanium and tantalum, with zirconium changes its physical and chemical properties, especially its resistance to corrosion. In this study, specimens of Zr-1.0Nb alloy were obtained by melting in a furnace with non-consumable electrodes in argon atmosphere. Different samples were prepared to ensure good homogeneity of the specimens. The melting procedure was tested several times to determine the parameters that ensure proper alloy handling. These parameters include the melting point of the alloys under pressure and the current in the furnace. Using the derived melting parameters and processing parameters, it has been obtained Zr-1.0Nb alloy specimens with appropriate homogeneity, as confirmed by auxiliary characterization techniques, such as optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. For these methods, the requirements for physicochemical properties in the nuclear sector were incorporated into the analyses.

Aluminum Oxyhydroxide

Natural zeolite of Shivirtui deposit (Russia) was modified with nanofibers of aluminum oxyhydroxide AlOOH. Aluminum oxyhydroxide nanofibers were produced at the heating and oxidation of aluminum powder with water. The properties of modified zeolite were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, transmission electronic microscopy, scanning electronic microscopy, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, thermal analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It was found that water content in the modified sample of zeolite was about 15 %. Based on the study of the physical and chemical properties, shivirtui zeolite modified with nanofibers of aluminum oxyhydroxide can be proposed for use as a flame-retardant additive to polymers.

Understanding the key features that determine structural flexibility in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) is key to exploiting their dynamic physical and chemical properties. We have previously reported a 2D MOF material, CuL1, comprising five-coordinate metal nodes that displays exceptional CO2/N2 selectively (L1=bis(4-(4-carboxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazolyl)methane). Here we examine the effect of utilising six-coordinate metal centres (CoII and NiII) in the synthesis of isostructural MOFs from L1, namely CoL1 and NiL1. The octahedral geometry of the metal centre within the MOF analogues precludes an ideal eclipse of the 2D layers, resulting in an offset stacking, and in certain cases, the formation of 2-fold interpenetrated analogues β-CoL1 and β-NiL1. We used a combination of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction (PXRD and SCXRD) to show that desolvation is accompanied by a structural change for NiL1, and complete removal of the coordinated H2O ligands results in a reduction in long-range order. The offset nature of the 2D layers in combination with the structural changes impedes the adsorption of meaningful quantities of gases (N2, CO2), highlighting the importance of a five-coordinate metal centre in achieving optimal pore accessibility for this family of flexible materials.

Abstract In this study, photo-catalytic degradation of methyl orange (MO) azo dye was examined by undoped and Ce2O3/ CuO/ N doped ZnO nanoparticles stabilized on γAl2O3. Highest photo-catalytic activity was observed for the N-doped 10 wt. % ZnO-γAl2O3 sample. One of the optimal points with the complete MO decomposition was determined at an initial concentration of 8.25 ppm, pH 3.25, catalyst loading of 0.36 g/L and 12.56 W UV-light irradiation after 120 min. Physical and chemical properties of materials were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) and UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) method. The experimental data were best fitted by a Langmuir-Hinshelwood approach photo-catalysis developed kinetic reaction rate in the form of $- r = 0.2797\, {I^{0.5}}\, {[Cat.]^{0.5}}\, \, [Dye]{\text{ }}/\, \, \, 1 + 0.1079\, {[Dye]_0}\, + \, 0.4086\, {I^{0.5}}\, {[Cat.]^{0.5}}$.
