Zinc ion-substituted cobalt ferrite powders Co1−xZnxFe2O4 (x = 0–0.7) were prepared by the sol-gel auto-combustion process. The structural properties and magnetic of the samples were investigated with X-ray diffraction (XRD), superconducting quantum interference device, and a Mössbauer spectrometer. The results of XRD showed that the powder of a single cubic phase of ferrites calcined when kept at 800 °C for 3 h. The lattice constant increases with increase in Zn concentration, but average crystallite size does not decrease constantly by increasing the zinc content, which is related to pH value. It was confirmed that the transition from ferrimagnetic to superparamagnetic behaviour depends on increasing zinc concentration by Mössbauer spectra at room temperature. Magnetization at room temperature increases for x ≤ 0.3, but decreases for increasing Zn2+ ions. The magnetization of Co0.7Zn0.3Fe2O4 reached maximum value (83.51 emu/g). The coercivity decreased with Zn2+ ions, which were doped on account of the decrease of the anisotropy constant.

Influence Of Ph

In this research a sol-gel auto-combustion route has been proposed to synthesize nickel-zinc ferrite nanocrystalline powder, using metal nitrates, citric acid as fuel and ammonia as pH adjusting agent. The influence of pH value of the solution on phase evolution, crystallite size and morphology of as-burnt powders were investigated by XRD, SEM and TEM techniques. The results revealed that with pH=7 the single phase nickel-zinc ferrite nanocrystalline powders with crystallite size of about 27nm were formed directly after auto combustion process.

Cr Concentration

Cobalt-chromium ferrite, CoCrxFe2−xO4 (x = 0–1.2), has been synthesized by the sol-gel auto-combustion method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicates that samples calcined at 800 °C for 3 h were a single-cubic phase. The lattice parameter decreased with increasing Cr concentration. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed that the sample powders were nanoparticles. It was confirmed from the room temperature Mössbauer spectra that transition from the ferrimagnetic state to the superparamagnetic state occurred with the doping of chromium. Both the saturation magnetization and the coercivity decreased with the chromium doping. With a higher annealing temperature, the saturation magnetization increased and the coercivity increased initially and then decreased for CoCr0.2Fe1.8O4.

Deposited Films

Thin films of TiO2 have been deposited on well cleaned glass substrates by Sol-Gel dip-drive coating technique. The films have been prepared at three different pH values (1, 3.5 & 9) of Sol and annealed in muffle furnace at 550°C for one hour and are allowed to cool to room temperature. The films were characterized by XRD, EDAX, SEM and UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. The as deposited films were found to be amorphous in nature. The annealed films exhibit anatase in crystalline structure. The EDAX results have shown that all the films are maintained with TiO2 in composition. The XRD results reveal that they are nano-crystalline in nature and the crystalline nature increases with pH of the Sol. The transmittance and absorbance spectra have shown that the films are transparent and band gap of the films are of the order of 3.2eV. The ab initio studies of TiO2 (using GGA) was performed with Vienna ab initio Simulation package and the band structure and effective masses of the electrons and holes were determined.

Magnetic Dilution

Sm (Co or/and Zn) substituted nanocrystalline barium hexaferrites were synthesized by the sol–gel auto-combustion process, then X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) were used to characterize and discuss the phase composition and the magnetic properties of the as-prepared barium hexaferrites. All results showed that the phase composition and magnetic properties were closely related to the doping elements and x. Owing to hyperfine field, canting spin, magnetic dilution and impurity phases, the saturation magnetization (Ms) of all samples increased firstly, and then decreased. Considering the crystallization, the magnetocrystalline anisotropy and the ions occupancy, the doping elements and x critically affected the coercivity (Hc). Compared the magnetic properties of all the samples, it is concluded that Zn 2+ and Co 2+ influenced each other and Zn 2+ occupied 4f2 sites prior to Co 2+, which led to the increase of Ms and the decrease of Hc.

Diesel Degradation

Nanoscale titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been fabricated through a sound sol-gel method at room temperature with Tetra-n-butyl Titanate as the precursor, and the particles are characterized by XRD and TEM techniques. The results manifest that the as-prepared TiO2 is amorphous with the anatase structure and its size is around 33.2nm. Five factors, including dosage of TiO2, initial concentration of diesel, pH value, photocatalytic degradation reaction time and the presence of H2O2, are considered in the diesel degradation experiments. An orthogonal test is carried out to optimize the photocatalytic degradation of diesel pollutants based on the single-factor experiments. It reveals that when the dosage of TiO2 is 1.0g/L, the initial concentration of diesel is 0.5g/L, pH value is 6, the reaction time is 4h and the H2O2 dosage is 0.09%, the removal rate of diesel pollutants can up to 88%. Besides, the influence of each factor on removing diesel can be arranged in decreasing order: initial concentration of diesel> photocatalytic reaction time> pH value> TiO2 dosage> H2O2 dosage.

Embedded Structure

Organic–inorganic CoFe2O4/polyaniline (CoFe2O4/PA) nanocomposites with embedded structures were synthesized by combining the sol–gel auto-combustion process and in-situ oxidative polymerization. The phases and morphologies of the prepared samples were identified. The pure CoFe2O4 samples exhibited inferior microwave-absorption properties in a frequency range of 2–18 GHz. Upon the incorporation of PA, the formed CoFe2O4/PA nanocomposites exhibited rather good absorption performances. When the sample thickness was 2.5 mm, the maximum reflection loss (RL) reached -22.3 dB, while the RL below -10 dB corresponded to the range of 11.0–17.1 GHz, which contains almost the entire Ku-band, making the structure promising for commercial and military applications. A physical model was employed to explain the effects of the embedded structure on the microwave-absorption performances. The excellent microwave-absorption performances could be attributed to the interfacial polarization and repeated reflection of the microwaves inside the CoFe2O4/PA composite.
