Silicated hydroxyapatite powders enriched with small amounts of manganese (Mn2+) cations were synthesized via two different methods: precipitation in aqueous solution and the solid-state method. The source of Mn2+ ions was manganese acetate, while silicon was incorporated using two different reagents: silicon acetate and sodium metasilicate. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis showed that the powders obtained via the precipitation method consisted of single-phase nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite. In contrast, samples obtained via the solid-state method were heterogenous and contaminated with other phases, (i.e., calcium oxide, calcium hydroxide, and silicocarnotite) arising during thermal treatment. The transmission electron microscope (TEM) images showed powders obtained via the precipitation method were nanosized and elongated, while solid-state synthesis produced spherical microcrystals. The phase identification was complemented by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). An in-depth analysis via solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) was carried out, using phosphorus 31P single-pulse Bloch decay (BD) (31P BD) and cross-polarization (CP) experiments from protons to silicon-29 nuclei (1H → 29Si CP). The elemental measurements carried out using wavelength-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WD-XRF) showed that the efficiency of introducing manganese and silicon ions was between 45% and 95%, depending on the synthesis method and the reagents. Preliminary biological tests on the bacteria Allivibrio fisheri (Microtox®) and the protozoan Spirostomum ambiguum (Spirotox) showed no toxic effect in any of the samples. The obtained materials may find potential application in regenerative medicine, bone implantology, and orthopedics as bone substitutes or implant coatings.

Powders of α-TCP containing various amounts of silicon were synthesized by two different methods: Wet chemical precipitation and solid-state synthesis. The obtained powders were then physico–chemically studied using different methods: Scanning and transmission electron microscopy (TEM and SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), powder X-ray diffractometry (PXRD), infrared and Raman spectroscopies (FT-IR and R), and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR). The study showed that the method of synthesis affects the morphology of the obtained particles, the homogeneity of crystalline phase and the efficiency of Si substitution. Solid-state synthesis leads to particles with a low tendency to agglomerate compared to the precipitation method. However, the powders obtained by the solid-state method are less homogeneous and contain a significant amount of other crystalline phase, silicocarnotite (up to 7.33%). Moreover, the microcrystals from this method are more disordered. This might be caused by more efficient substitution of silicate ions: The silicon content of the samples obtained by the solid-state method is almost equal to the nominal values.

Using NH4VO3, Bi (NO3)3•5H2O and Co (NO3)2•6H2O as raw materials, Co doped BiVO4 (Co/BiVO4) photocatalysts were successfully prepared by solid state method. And the photo catalytic properties were test in this work. Crystal structures of these samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The Methyl Orange (MO) was simulated as the sewage under the visible light to explorer the influence of the illumination time and the mass of photocatalyst. The visible-light absorption spectrum of BiVO4 was broadening with doping Co. It was found that the Co/BiVO4 had higher photocatalytic activity than pure BiVO4 .The reason of enhanced catalytic effect also had been analyzed and discussed in the article.

LiNa5K3Mo11As3O45 is a new inorganic compound. It was synthesized by a solid state method. The crystal structure has been studied by single crystal X-ray analysis. The R-values reached 2.8%. The title compound crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P-1, with a = 10.550 (2) Å, b = 11.723 (2) Å, c = 17.469 (3) Å, α = 102.35 (3)°, β = 87.61 (2)°, and γ = 111.03 (3)°. The anionic unit [Mo11As3O45]9− is formed by nine MoO6 octahedra, two MoO5 trigonal bipyramids, and three AsO4 tetrahedra. The association of [Mo11As3O45]9− units, running along [010], leads to a one-dimensional framework. Li, K, and Na are located in the space surrounding the anionic ribbons. This material was characterized by SEM microscopy, IR spectroscopy, and powder X-ray diffraction. The electrical conductivity was investigated from 528 K to 673 K by impedance complex followed by DSC spectroscopy.

<p>TiO<sub>2</sub> Anatase activities should be increased from the UV to the visible light photocatalytic activity of TiO<sub>2</sub> to increase anatas. One efforts to optimize TiO<sub>2</sub> anatase activity is doping by using dopant vanadium(V). Synthesis method which is used in this research is a solid reaction method.

Dopant concentrations of vanadium(V) which are used in the research was 0.3%, 0.5% and 0.7%. and the characterization used is X-ray diffraction and UV-Vis Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy. The result shows that there are a changing of particle size, band gap energy, and absorption of TiO<sub>2</sub> anatas wavelength because of dopan vanadium(V) addition. While TiO<sub>2</sub>’s structure does not change. The crystal sizes of each TiO<sub>2</sub> without doping, V-TiO<sub>2</sub> 0,3%, 0,5% and 0,7% are 53.21 nm, 47.67 nm, 79.65 nm dan 68.99 nm.  Band gap energy of each TiO<sub>2</sub> without doping, V-TiO<sub>2</sub> 0,3%, 0,5% dan 0,7% are 3.309 eV, 3.279 eV, 3.270 eV and 3.259 eV.

Abstract The polymeric precursor method was used for the synthesis of KNb3O8 and compared to the solid-state method. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and determination of surface area and total pore volume by nitrogen isotherms at 77 K. The material prepared by the polymeric precursor method was single-phase while K2Nb4O11 was obtained as secondary phase when the solid-state method was used, as evidenced by the XRD patterns and the Raman spectra. The morphology of the materials was significantly altered by the synthesis method, as the KNb3O8 prepared by the polymeric precursor method presented a more porous morphology leading to a higher surface area and pore volume.

Lithium vanadyl phosphate (β-LiVOPO4) cathode material for lithium ion batteries was prepared via a novel solid state method. The microstructure and electrochemical properties of the sample were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, galvanostatically discharge/discharge and cyclic voltammetry techniques, respectively. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that β-LiVOPO4 has an orthorhombic structure with space group of Pnma. The discharge capacity of LiVOPO4 sample is 89.9 mAh•g-1 in the first cycle, and in the 50th cycle it is 76.2 mAh•g-1 at the current density of 10 mA•g-1 between 3.0-4.5 V. The chemical diffusion coefficient ( ) value determined from CV is about 10-11 cm2 s-1. Experimental results indicate that further efforts are needed to improve electrochemical performances of LiVOPO4 material synthesized by solid state method; however, it has a higher discharge plateau around 3.9 V.

A series of yttrium-doped lithium trivanadates LiV3-yYyO8 (y=0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2) were synthesized by a solid-state reaction. X-ray diffraction (XRD) tests show that a proper amount of yttrium doping in LiV3O8 can modify its structure. Charge-discharge tests show that doped samples with a proper amount of yttrium display good cycling stability compared with undoped sample. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) tests indicate that the proper amount of yttrium doping in LiV3O8 can stabilize its original structure. Yttrium doping is a convenient and effective method for improving the electrochemical performances of LiV3O8.
