The PANI/ITO conducting nanocomposites have been synthesized by in-situ polymerization. The obtained nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction pattern, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared. Electrical conductivity measurements on the samples pressed into pellets showed that the maximum conductivity attained 2.0 ± 0.05 S/cm for PANI/ITO nanocomposites, at ITO doping concentration of 10 wt%. The results of the present work may provide a simple, rapid and efficient approach for preparing PANI/ITO nanocomposites.

AbstractTetraphenylphosphonium tetraazidoborate, [P(C6H5)4][B(N3)4], was obtained from B(N3)3 - in situ prepared from BH3 · O(C2H5)2 and HN3 - and [P(C6H5)4][N3]. Recrystallization from an acetonitrile / hexane mixture yielded colorless crystals in 60% yield. The molecular structurewas determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and the [B(N3)4]- anionwas shown to possess S4 symmetry.

Nanoscale LiTaO3 powders with perovskite structure were synthesized using the solvothermal technique with glycol as solvent at 240°C for 12h. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). XRD was used to elucidate room temperature structures using Rietveld refinement. The powders were pure single pervoskite phase with high crystallinity. FESEM and TEM were used to determine particle size and morphology. The average LiTaO3 grain size was estimated to be < 200nm, and TEM images indicated that LiTaO3 particles had a brick-like morphology. In addition, the effect of the temperature on the LiTaO3 power characterisitics was also detailed studied.

Copper complexes of dithiocarbamates ligands were obtained from RNH2 (R = C6H13-, C12H25- y C18H37-) and an excess of CS2 in the presence of NaOH. Sodium hexyldithiocarbamate is not possible to isolate from solution but the other two were obtained and characterizedby infrared spectroscopy, UV-vis and powder X-ray diffraction. Copper complexes were obtained in situ from ligand solution as greenish powders. All the complexes were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, UV-vis, powder X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The complexes show an amorphous phase in the case of DCu12 and nanocrystalline structure for DCu18, as observed in XRD.

Y zeolite was synthesized form silica gel microsphere by in- situ hydrothermal method, with appropriate amount of other constituents, such as sodium silicate, water, without adding any organic additives. The as-synthesized samples were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and N2 sorption. The results show that the synthesized sample not only has a composite structure with zeolite Y and silica gel, but also retains the shape of silica gel microsphere. The pore distribution of the composite materials indicated that the composite material contains two types of pore that are micropores and large pores.

Two iron complexes, Fe3(dtdb)2(HCO2)2(DMF)2(H2O)2(1) and Fe(bpy)(Hdtdb)(H2O) (2) were solvothermally synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Fe3(dtdb)2(HCO2)2(DMF)2(H2O)2 (1) shows 2D layer structure crystallized in a triclinic with space group P-1 and cell parameters, a = 8.5591(10) nm, b = 11.2502(13) nm, c = 11.4370(14) nm, α = 90.687(2)º, β = 110.275(2)º , γ = 90.712(2)º, and Z = 1. Fe(bpy)(Hdtdb)(H2O) (2) shows surper- molecular architecture crystallized in a triclinic with space group P-1 and cell parameters, a = 8.286(12) nm, b = 11.5937(16) nm, c = 11.8477(17) nm, α = 93.932(3)º, β = 102.442(3)º, γ = 97.117(3)º, and Z = 1.

Hierarchical calcium carbonate spheres composed of nanoparticles has been successfully synthesized via a solvothermal process. The structures are fabricated by the reaction of Ca (CH3COO)2with (CO(NH2)2) at 110 °C in diethylene glycolwater mixed solvents in the presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone. The as-prepared products were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The characterization results revealed that the average diameter of the hierarchical calcium carbonate spheres is about 5 μm, and the size of the nanoparticals range from 50 to 100 nm. In addition, a small amount of bundle-like aragonite calcium carbonate is also obtained in the experimental parameters.

AbstractA series of nanocomposites consist of organic polyimide and organo-modified clay content varying from 0 to 10 mass%, were successfully prepared by in situ polymerization. Polyimide used as a matrix of nanocomposite was prepared through the reaction of 1,2-bis(4-aminophenoxy)ethane (BAE) and 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA) in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC). The resulting nanocomposite films were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).

AbstractA new 3-dimensional zinc carbonate Zn(NH3)CO3 has been synthesized from a glycol system with urea and zinc acetate as raw materials. The crystal structure and photoluminescent properties have been investigated using X-ray diffraction, smart CCD and FL. The compound had an orthorhombic system with space group of Pna21 with M = 142.41, a = 9.1449(18) Å, b = 7.5963(15) Å, c = 5.4982(11) Å, V = 381.95(13) Å3, Z = 4, R = 0.0285 and RW = 0.0745. The NH3 and CO32- were connected through the Zn-N bond and Zn-O bond in the symmetric unit. Photoluminescent property was observed in the compound at room temperature and the exited and emission peaks were located at about 350 nm and 426 nm, respectively.

A novel cellulose-based oil absorbent crosslinked cellulose-dibutyl sebacate copolymers was prepared by the graft crosslinking polymerization of in situ synthesized dibutyl sebacate and cotton cellulose using potassium persulfate as an initiator. The copolymers were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetry, differential scanning calorimetry, etc. The effects of reaction conditions, such as, ratio of reaction regents, reaction temperature, reaction time, etc, on the efficiency of oil absorbency were examined. The optimized reaction conditions for the synthesis of crosslinked cellulose-dibutyl sebacate copolymers were: m(cotton pulp):m(K2S2O8 initiator):m(dibutyl sebacate) = 1 0.025 2.0(W/W),75°C,and 5-6 h. The resulting crosslinked cellulose-dibutyl sebacate copolymers were floppy and exhibited excellent oil absorbency efficiency.
