Abstract Birnessite type Mn oxide (potassium birnessite hydrate) powder (as-δ-MnO2) with a layered microstructure was prepared via a hydrothermal process. To improve its capacitive performance, the microstructure was thermally modified (annealed) at 400 oC (400-δ-MnO2) in a N2 reducing environment. By removing the hydrated cations (K+) layers inserted between the main layers of birnessite, damaging the microstructure, intercalation/deintercalation of the electrolyte species (Li+1) became more effective. Characterization of as-δ-MnO2 and 400-δ-MnO2 revealed that no phase transformation occurred during the annealing process. The microstructure became less crystalline and the total pore volume increased from 0.20 cm3 g-1 to 0.43 cm3 g-1, while the oxidation state of Mn remained 4+ after annealing the as-δ-MnO2 at 400 oC. The 400-δ-MnO2 sample was then coated on asphaltene derived activated carbon fibers (ACF-400-δ-MnO2) to improve the performance by making use of the high electrical conductivity and capacitive behavior of ACF. Coating the 400-δ-MnO2 sample led to a significant increase in the capacitance (328 F g-1 and 195 F g-1 for ACF-400-δ-MnO2 and 400-δ-MnO2 at 0.4 A g-1, respectively), improved energy and power values (~7 kW kg-1 at ~4.2 Wh kg-1 for ACF-400-δ-MnO2 and 240 W kg-1 at 2.4 Wh kg-1 for 400-δ-MnO2) and improved cycling behavior.

One-dimensional titania structures were synthesized trough a simple hydrothermal process in a highly alkaline conditions. The aim of this work was to elucidate the effect of time on the formation of 1D titanates as well on its structural characteristics (morphology, phase composition, surface area). Apart from that, the effect of heat treatment conditions on the stability of titanate based 1D samples has been investigated. The results have revealed that it is possible to form one-dimensional titanates already after 1 hour of hydrothermal synthesis. Although the composition of titanates is still under debate, the results probably correspond to the layered sodium titanates. The 1D prepared structures show a remarkable stability during heating, remaining the basic morphology and composition even up to 700?C.

AbstractA new tin(II) borate with the composition SnB8O11(OH)4 was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal process. It crystallizes in the centrosymmetric monoclinic space group P21/n (no. 14) with the lattice parameters a=790.1(1), b=1402.2(2), c=994.8(1) pm, and β=90.40(5)° (Z=4). The new compound SnB8O11(OH)4 is isotypic to PbB8O11(OH)4 and isostructural to BaB8O11(OH)4. The borate layers are built up from fundamental building blocks (FBBs) with the composition [B8O11(OH)4]2−. Four of these FBBs form a nine-membered ring wherein the Sn2+ cations are located. These boron-oxygen layers are further connected by O–H···O hydrogen bond interactions. The characterization of SnB8O11(OH)4 is based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction data, vibrational spectroscopy, DFT calculations, and thermoanalytical investigations including high temperature powder XRD.

Cu doped CeO2 nanopowder was synthesized by hydrothermal process at 180°C for 2~10h. The average size and distribution of the synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanopowder was controlled by reaction times. The crystallinity of the synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanoparticles was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology of the synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanoparticles was observed by FE-SEM. The specific surface area of the synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanoparticles was measured by BET. The crystal size of the synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanoparticles decreased with decreasing reaction times. The average size of the synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanoparticles was below 10nm and narrow, respectively. The shape of the synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanoparticles was spherical type. The specific surface area of the synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanoparticles increased with decreasing reaction times. Antibacterial properties of Cu doped CeO2 were analyzed by MIC method. The synthesized Cu doped CeO2 nanopowders showed antibacterial properties against E.coli and B.sub bacteria.
