Nickel zinc nanoferrites (Ni1−xZnxFe2O4) were synthesized via a chemical co-precipitation method having stoichiometric proportion (x) altering from 0.00 to 1.00 in steps of 0.25. The synthesized nanoparticles were sintered at 800 °C for 12 h. X-ray diffraction patterns illustrate that the nanocrystalline cubic spinel ferrites have been obtained after sintering. The Scherrer formula is used to evaluate the particle size using the extreme intense peak (311). The experimental results demonstrate that precipitated particles’ size was in the range of 20–60 nm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is used to investigate the elemental configuration and morphological characterizations of all the prepared samples. FTIR spectroscopy data for respective sites were examined in the range of 300–1000 cm−1. The higher frequency band ν1 were assigned due to tetrahedral complexes while lower frequency band ν2 were allocated due to octahedral complexes. Our experimental results demonstrate that the lattice constant a0 increases while lattice strain decreases with increasing zinc substitution in nickel zinc nanoferrites.

KTiOPO4 nanoparticles are known as the best candidate to utilize for second-harmonic generation in multiphoton microscopes and bio labels. Size and shape are important and effective parameters to control the properties of nanoparticles. In this paper, we will investigate the role of capping agent concentration on the size and shape control of KTP nanoparticles. We synthesized KTP nanoparticles by the co-precipitation method. Polyvinyl alcohol with different mole ratios to titanium ion (1:3, 1:2, 1:1) was used as a capping agent. Products were examined by X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron microscopy analyses. X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the formation of the KTP structure. The biggest (56.36nm) and smallest (39.42nm) grain size were obtained by 1:3 and 1:1 mole ratios of capping agent, respectively. Dumbly, spherical and polyhedral forms of KTP nanoparticles were observed by the change in capping agent mole ratio. The narrowest size distribution of KTiOPO4 nanoparticles was obtained at 1:1 mole ratio of capping agent. Doi: 10.28991/HIJ-2020-01-04-06 Full Text: PDF

BaTi5O11 has been widely researched due to its unique microwave properties. Conventionally it is challenging to obtain this compound as a single phase. The BaTi5O11 was synthesized via co-precipitation technique using an aqueous solution of titanium(IV)(triethanolaminato) isopropoxide, barium nitrate and ammonia as precursors which are stable in an aqueous media. The phase evolution, purity, and structure were identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy analysis. The desired BaTi5O11 structure was obtained by calcination at 900?C. Furthermore, the structure is characterized by TGA, FT-IR and Raman studies. The study showed that the particles were between 80 and 120 nm in size and the average crystallite size was determined from the Scherrer formula as 68.1 nm at 900?C.

Co0.76Cu0.74[Fe(CN)6]·7.5H2O was prepared as a powder by a chemical co-precipitation method. The powder X-ray diffraction patterns were indexed to the typical face-centred cubic structure with the lattice parameter a 10.55(2) Å. The temperature dependence of the χ−1 curve obeys the Curie–Weiss law (χ = C/(T – θ)) in the temperature range of 180–300 K. According to Curie–Weiss law, the calculated θ value is −54.82 K. In the paramagnetic state at 300 K, the effective magnetic moment (μeff = (8χT)1/2) is 3.58 μB per formula unit. The calculated theoretical effective magnetic moment is 4.06 μB. The magnetic field cooling measurements under a 200 Oe applied magnetic field show that the saturation magnetization value at 2 K of the complex Co0.76Cu0.74[Fe(CN)6]·7.5H2O is 1.528 emu g−1.

The co-effect of PO43- and I- on the formation of a heterosturucture photocatalyst in the Ag3PO4-AgI system was studied by the co-precipitation method between AgNO3 and the precipitating agent. The precipitating agent was prepared by varying the mole ratios between Na2HPO4 and KI. At 10 mol.% KI, the product showed the mixed phase between Ag3PO4 and un-identified phase. For 30 - 90 mol.% KI, the un-identified phase and AgI were detected in the x-ray diffraction patterns. The un-identified phase strongly adsorbed the methylene blue dye. The product prepared from 30 mol.% KI had the highest content of un-identified phase and also showed the highest degree of decolorization in the dark. The photocatalytic properties of products in this system were confirmed by the decolorization of methylene blue under visible illumination.

Chemical co-precipitation method was used to prepare Gd2Zr2O7 powders. The powders were then heated in air at 1500°C, 1510°C, 1525°C, 1530°C, 1550°C, 1575°C, 1600°C for 5 h, and 1575°C, 1600°C for 10 h, respectively. The samples after heat treatment were characterized by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction patterns reveal that order-disorder transition of Gd2Zr2O7 occurs between 1550°C and 1575°C. Prior to the transition, the relative intensity of peaks corresponding to the super-lattice of pyrochlores increases with the increasing temperature. On the other hand, Raman spectra give an inconsistent result from the X-ray diffraction data. No appreciable difference can be observed for all the samples though with peaks broadening as temperature increases. The spectra of the samples indicated as fluorite structure in X-ray diffraction patterns appear with six resolvable peaks which is quite different from the spectrum of ideal fluorite structure.

This study reports the analysis of drinking water sources of river Krishni catchment, contaminated by organochlorine pesticides. Iron oxide nanoparticles had been synthesized through co-precipitation method and utilized for the degradation of organochlorine pesticides using advanced oxidation processes. The sharp and narrow peaks of X-ray diffraction patterns revealed the crystalline nature of synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles having size less than 100 nm. The nanoparticles were also characterized using TEM, UV-Vis and IR spectral analysis. Liquid-liquid extraction and GC-MS were used for the detection analysis of pesticides. GC-MS technique was used for further quantitative analysis of 19 pesticides. The degradation analysis showed the maximum amount of degradation (up to 98.38 %) of organochlorine pesticides.

Single crystalline nano-sized multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) powders were synthesized through simple chemical co-precipitation method using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as capping agent. We obtained pure phase BiFeO3 powder by controlling pHand calcination temperature. From X-ray diffraction studies the nanoparticles were unambiguously identified to have a rhombohedrally distorted perovskite structure belonging to the space group of R3c. No secondary phases were detected. It indicates single phase structure. EDX spectra indicated the appearance of three elements Bi, Fe, O in 1:1:3. From the UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum, the absorption cut-off wavelength of the BFO sample is around 558nm corresponding to the energy band gap of 2.2 eV. The size (60-70 nm) and morphology of the nanoparticles have been analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM).   Linear M−H behaviour and slight hysteresis at lower magnetic field is observed for BiFeO3 nanoparticles from Vibrating sample magnetometer studies. It indicates weak ferromagnetic behaviour at room temperature. From dielectric studies, the conductivity value is calculated from the relation s = L/RbA Sm-1 and it is around 7.2 x 10-9 S/m.

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) and hydroxyapatite/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composites were obtained by the co-precipitation method, followed by ultrasound-assisted and microwave radiation and thermal treatment at 250 °C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the presence of a hexagonal phase in all the samples, while Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy elucidated the interaction between HAp and MWCNTs. The photoluminescent technique revealed that HAp and the composite with non-functionalized MWCNTs present a blue luminescence, while the composite with functionalized MWCNTs, under UV-vis radiation shows an intense white emission. These findings allowed presentation of a proposal for the use of HAp and HAp with functionalized MWCNTs as potential materials for optoelectronic and medical applications.

In this study, the photocatalytic activity of pure Fe- doped ZnO and Fe- doped ZnO/Montmorillonite nanocomposite has been investigated for the degradation of malachite green under UV light irradiation. Both photocatalysts were synthesized using co-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared absorption, and electron spin resonance. The results showed that the photocatalytic efficiency is better in the presence of montmorillonite compared to pure Fe- doped ZnO. To detect the possible reactive species involved in degradation of organic dyes control experiments with introducing scavengers into the solution of organic dyes were carried out. It is found that electron plays an important role in the degradation of malachite green.
