Nanometer barium-strontium titanate based coated aluminum oxide (ABST) was prepared by the sol–gel method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR). Its application in speciation of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) from water were studied. The results showed that the nanometer barium-strontium titanate was immobilized on aluminum oxide firmly, becoming a new adsorbent. Two forms of chromium showed different exchange capacities at different pH values, viz. Cr (III) selectively retained at pH 10–13, whereas Cr (VI) retained at pH 1. Hence complete separation of the two forms of chromium is possible. Retained species were eluted with 5mL of 1 mol•L−1 HCl and 1 mol•L−1 NaOH. The Cr(III) and Cr(VI) concentration was measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The adsorbent had a promising prospect in the separation of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in environment water.

We present a simple and highly reproductive method for the preparation of thin films consisting of strontium titanate nanoparticles. The films are produced by spin coating of a sol on silicon targets and subsequent annealing under ambient conditions. Analysis by atomic force microscopy shows particles with typical sizes between 10 nm and 50 nm. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy displays a stoichiometry of the films as anticipated from preliminary experiments with strontium titanate single crystals. Metastable-induced electron spectroscopy and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy are used as tools to give evidence to the similar electronic properties of nanoparticle film and single crystal. These results support the prospect for an application of the nanoparticle films as high temperature oxygen sensor with superior properties.

AbstractFeldspar of composition Ca0.2Pb0.8Al2Si2O8 (PbF80An20) was synthesized from melt and subsequently isothermally annealed at T = 960°C for 4 days. In situ HT X-ray powder spectra of PbF80An20 feldspar, triclinic I1̄ at room temperature, were collected in the temperature range 20–800°C, and a displacive continuous ferroelastic transition to a I2/c monoclinic phase was observed. An analysis of the symmetry-required components of the spontaneous strain tensor reveals the second order character (β = 0.46 ± 0.02) of the transition with TC = 680 ± 15°C. A linear coupling was observed between the e4 and e6 components of the spontaneous strain. The transition is analogous to those observed, with increasing temperature, along the join An–SrF and in disordered Na-rich alkali feldspars. A comparison with Ca0.2Sr0.8Al2Si2O8 feldspar (TC = 680°C, McGuinn and Redfern, 1997) shows that PbF80An20 has a higher spontaneous strain (εs = 0.028 in PbF80An20vs 0.020 in Ca0.2Sr0.8Al2Si2O8) and a higher e4 component, possibly related to the higher distortion of the non-tetrahedral polyhedron in lead feldspar.
