The organization of nanostructures across extended length scales is a key challenge in the design of integrated materials with advanced functions. PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3multilayer disks which were constructed by oriented rectangle nanoparticles were easily prepared by a simple surfactant-free hydrothermal process. The as-prepared powders were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that the as-prepared PZT disks were constructed by self-assembly of rectangle nanoparticles by a perfect manner. The formation mechanism of the products was discussed.

Using polymer as a surfactant, we successfully synthesized of PbTiO3 crystals with a self-assembly structure by a hydrothermal process. The as-obtained powders were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the presence of PVP, PEG and PVA plays a key role on the formation of self-assembly structure and the corresponding formation mechanism was briefly discussed.

The La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 nanocubes have been synthesized by simple precipitation followed by hydrothermal process. The as-obtained nanocubes were characterized by SEM, TEM, EDS, XRD and ICP-AA. The SEM and TEM images clearly showed cube type morphology of reaction product. The XRD pattern gave evidence for the phase purity and high crystallinity of the La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 nanocubes. The ICP-AA analysis along with EDS confirms the stoichiometry of the product. Electrochemical activity for oxygen reduction reaction was carried out in 1 M KOH. The oxygen reduction current measured by cyclic voltametry showed six times higher value for nanocubes than that of bulk catalysts of same composition.

FePO4·2H2O with orthorhombic flower-like microstructure was synthesized by a facile hydrothermal process which was of low-cost and easy processing in large area. The formation mechanism of the flower-like FePO4·2H2O was discussed in details by investigating the different concentration of reactants and reaction time. The results show that the morphology of FePO4·2H2O changed from microsphere to flower-like structure, which possess an unique morphology with six petals and the angle of each petal being 60o. The formation mechanism of FePO4·2H2O flowers can be explained by the dissolution-recrystallization and crystal splitting.

AbstractIn this study, extraction and synthesis of SiO2 nanoparticles from silica sands have been conducted by means of two different methods, i.e. dry method (method 1) and hydrothermal process (method 2). The basic difference between the two methods is in the extraction step. The two methods were compared in terms of being more efficient, economical, and superior in obtaining SiO2 nanoparticles. The SiO2 nanoparticles were characterized in terms of phase purity, crystallinity, Si-O functional bonding as well as particles size and morphology. The most interesting fact in this study was the formation of both quartz and cristobalite phases within all prepared SiO2 nanoparticles.
