AbstractThe detonation of explosives typically creates 100's of kbar pressures and 1000's K temperatures. These pressures and temperatures last for only a fraction of a microsecond as the products expand. Nucleation and growth of crystalline materials can occur under these conditions. Recovery of these materials is difficult but can occur in some circumstances. This paper describes the detonation synthesis facility, recovery of nano-size diamond, and plans to synthesize other nano-size materials by modifying the chemical composition of explosive compounds. The characterization of nano-size diamonds by transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy will also be reported.

BiFeO3 polyhedrons had been successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal method. The as-prepared products were characterized by power X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The possible mechanisms for the formation of BiFeO3 polyhedrons were discussed. Though comparison experiments, it was found that the kind of precursor played a key role on the morphology control of BiFeO3 crystals.

The compounds Pr6(C2)Br10, Pr10(C2)2Br15 and Pr14(C2)3Br20 were prepared from PrBr3 and the appropriate amounts of Pr and C and characterized by X-ray structure analyses of single crystals. All three compounds crystallize in space group P1 with lattice parameters a = 7.571(2), b = 9.004(2), c = 9.062(2) Å ,α = 108.57(3), β = 97.77(3), γ = 106.28(3)◦ for Pr6(C2)Br10; a = 9.098(2), b = 10.127(2), c = 10.965(2) A° , α = 70.38(3), β = 66.31(3), γ = 70.84(3)◦ for Pr10(C2)2Br15; a = 9.054(2), b = 10.935(2), c = 13.352(3) Å , α = 86.27(3), β = 72.57(3), γ = 66.88(3)◦ for Pr14(C2)3Br20. They are members of a general series Ln4n+2(C2)nBr5n+5 and isostructural with the corresponding iodides known for Ln = La, Ce, Pr. Pr6(C2)Br10 was further characterized via transmission electron microscopy techniques

In present work, ceria microspheres were synthesized by template hydrothermal method. Crystalline form of the as-synthesized ceria microspheres was defined by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Dispersibility of ceria microspheres was comprehensively characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation and laser particle size analyzer. Furthermore, the ultraviolet light absorption performances of ceria microspheres with several different sizes were compared by ultraviolet visible spectrophotometer. The results showed that ceria microspheres presented excellent UV absorbent property and the size influence was remarkable.
