In the course of a systematic field study, anisotropic alkali and alkaline earth vanadates have been accessed through a straightforward, one-step hydrothermal process. They are formed quantitatively from V2O5 and alkali- or alkaline earth halide solutions after a few days of autoclave treatment in the temperature range between 100 and 220 °C. The presence of ionic additives leads to an interplay between the formation of isotropic crystalline phases and the production of fibrous oxide materials, such as a novel magnesium vanadate. The influence of the hydrothermal parameters and of the alkali/alkaline earth halides on the emerging phases and morphologies has been investigated in the course of a systematic study. The results are compared with other vanadate- and transition metal oxide-based hydrothermal systems, and the emerging trends are discussed with respect to the development of predictive synthetic concepts for nanostructured vanadium oxides.

P25 loaded few layered molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets (P25@MoS2) are successfully synthesized through a facile one-step hydrothermal process. The bi-catalytic activities, i.e., photocatalytic and electrocatalytic activities, of the as-prepared nanomaterials have been investigated. For the as-prepared products, the photocatalytic performances were investigated by degrading simulated pollutant under sunlight irradiation, and the hydrogen evolution reaction evaluated the electrocatalytic performances. The results indicate that P25@MoS2 possesses excellent activities in both photocatalysis and electrocatalysis. The presence of MoS2 broadens the light absorption range of P25 and improves the separation and transformation efficiency of photogenerated carriers, thus improving its photocatalytic performance. The existence of P25 inhibits the aggregation of MoS2 to form more dispersed MoS2 nanosheets with only few layers increasing its active sites. Thereby, the electrocatalytic performance is heightened. The excellent multifunction makes the as-prepared P25@MoS2 a promising material in the fields of environment and energy.

3D flower-like bismuth trisulphide microcrystallines has been successfully prepared via one step hydrothermal process and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and laser Raman spectrometer techniques. The morphologies of the Bi2S3 microcrystallines were influenced by the surfactant Na2(EDTA), which acts as a structure directing agent.

ABSTRACTMorphology control is a key challenge in the straightforward hydrothermal production of technologically relevant anisotropic oxide materials. The use of readily available ionic additives as growth modifiers is discussed and compared for molybdenum- and tungsten oxide-based systems, and it is extended upon the formation of ternary W/Mo-oxides. Generally, the one-step hydrothermal synthesis of ternary and higher oxides is an important goal, because their properties often outperform those of the binary oxides. This holds especially for the Bi2O3-MoO3-VOx (BIMOVOx) system as a rich source of new materials. We present a new solution-based approach to α-Bi2O3 nanobelts starting from commercial Bi2O3 and K2SO4 as a key step on the way to anisotropic BIMOVOx-oxides. This hydrothermal process is an illustrative example of highly selective and efficient morphology control through an inorganic additive. As mechanistic and kinetic studies are crucial for the design of complex oxide nanomaterials, the Bi2O3-K2SO4 system is compared to our previous studies on Mo-, W- and V-oxides with respect to its hydrothermal parameter window and robustness.
