A series of barium doped LaMnO3 perovskite nano catalysts were synthesized using the citric acid sol gel method. The prepared nano catalysts were characterized using the various characterization techniques such as XRD, ICPAES, FTIR, SEM, HRTEM, TPR and BET. The Xrd results showed the purity of the prepared catalyst as no segregated phases were observed and also confirming the crystallinity of the prepared catalyst. The surface area achieved in this experiment presented one of the highest reported in literature. The doping of the perovskite catalysts helps in increasing the surface area. The ICPAES results shows the efficiency of the preparation method adopted. The catalytic evaluation shows that upon introduction of Ba into the perovskite structure, the catalytic performance of the catalyst were greatly increased with LBM3 giving the lowest T50 at 550°C

AbstractThe sol gel method was used in preparing a series of A site partially substituted La1−xBaxCoO3 (x ≥ 0.1 ≤ 0.4) perovskite catalysts coded LBC1, 2, 3, and 4 and their potential as catalysts for soot oxidation were evaluated. The Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICPAES), Thermogravimetric/Differential Thermal Analysis (TGA/DTG), X-ray analysis (XRD) were used in characterizing the prepared perovskite catalyst. The result shows that at (x≥ 0.2 ≤ 0.4), there was an increase in surface area when we compare it with that of x = 0. The increase in surface area helps in increasing the catalytic performance of the catalyst. Also, when evaluating the catalytic performance of the synthesized catalysts, it was observed that doping the perovskite catalysts helped in the general improvement of the catalytic performance for soot oxidation. The best performance in this research study with a T50 of 484 °C was observed at x = 0.2 catalyst (LBC2). This shows that the non-noble perovskite catalysts prepared in this research study has the potential to replace the noble metal based catalysts used presently in the diesel automotive industry.

W-SBA-15 mesoporous material was synthesized by using a one-step co-condensation sol-gel process and characterized by various methods. The results showed that the prepared W-SBA-15 sample retained the typical mesoporous structure of SBA-15 and exhibited good catalytic performance for the green synthesis of adipic acid under organic solvent-free conditions.

Nanocrystalline LiMn2O4 powder was synthesized by sol-gel method using citric acid as a chelating agent. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Differential thermal analysis (DTA), Impedance spectroscopy (IS) and Electrochemical measurements. The powder particles having slight agglomeration characteristics were found to have prismatic morphology and a wider size distribution from 50 nm to 200 nm, which provides good packing density of the material. The electrical conductivity of the powder at room temperature is in the order of ~10-5 S/cm. The structural stability of LiMn2O4 cubic spinel over the temperature range of battery operation was assessed. Electrochemical performance of the material shows a discharge capacity of ~130 mAh/gm.

The experimental results on the synthesis and characterization of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)/ methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS)-based silica aerogels using two step sol-gel process via supercritical drying, are described. The obtained TEOS/MTMS-based aerogel showed properties of 0.1g/cm3 density, 95.5% porosity and 1070 m2/g specific surface area.
