Mechanical alloying (MA) method has been used to produce nanocrystallite Mn -15at.% Al alloy. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns for the as-milled elemental α- Mn and aluminum powder samples show a mixture of α + β- MnAl phases after 20 h of milling and changes to a dominant β- MnAl phase structure after 50 h. An average crystallite size of 40 nm was determined from Hall–Williamson method analysis after 5 h of milling. Moreover, the thermal analysis results using differential thermal analysis (DTA), suggested a possible phase transformation after 20 h of milling. Isothermal treatments are carried in the temperature range of 450°C to 1000°C. Room-temperature vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) measurements of the hysteretic response revealed that the saturation magnetization Bs and coercivity Hc for 10 h ball milled sample are ~ 2.1 emu/g and ~ 92 Oe, respectively.

AbstractThe crystallinity indices (CrI) of Chinese handmade papers were investigated using the X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. Four Chinese handmade papers, Yingchun, Zhuma, Yuanshu and Longxucao papers were used as model substrates of mulberry bark, ramie, bamboo and Eulaliopsis binata papers, respectively. Two forms of the paper samples, paper sheets and their comminuted powders, were used in this study. The results showed that their XRD patterns belong to the cellulose-I type and Iβ dominates the cellulose microstructure of these paper samples. Moreover, it was found that the microstructures and CrIs of cellulose of these papers were changed by the grinding treatment. This work suggested that the sheet form of the handmade papers is suitable to determine CrI by XRD, despite the contribution of non-cellulosic components in the papers. The order of CrIs for these paper sheet samples was Yingchun, Zhuma, Longxucao and Yuanshu papers. Besides CrIs, differences in cross-sectional areas of the crystalline zone of cellulose can be used for comparing different types of handmade papers. It was also found that the CrIs and crystallite size of paper cellulose varied between the sheet samples and the powder samples, illustrating that the pulverisation has a negative influence on the microstructure of the handmade papers.

Pure and Nickel oxide doped chromium (III) oxide (Cr2O3) nanoparticals are synthesized by hydrothermal technique. The effect of dopant Ni concentration on the structural behavior of Cr2O3 nanoparticles was examined by X-ray diffraction. The average crystallite size of the synthesized nanoparticles was measured from XRD patterns using Scherrer equation and was decreased from 22nm to 12.9 nm with the increasing Nio concentration in Cr2O3 from (0, 0.01, 0.06, and 0.10). Morphologies and compositional elements of the synthesized nanoparticles were observed by the field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, respectively. The optical property of the samples was measured by ultraviolet - visible (UV-Vis.) absorption spectroscopy. The observed optical band gap value ranges from 2.3eV to 2.5eV for Ni doped nanoparticles

Manganese oxides are of more interest to researchers because of their ability as catalysts and lithium batteries. In this research, MnO2nanowires with diameter about 45 nm were synthesized by sol–gel method at room temperature (RT). Effect of increasing the annealing temperature from 400[Formula: see text]C to 600[Formula: see text]C on crystalline structure of nanostructure were studied and average crystallite size was estimated about 22 nm. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) method, Energy-Dispersive X-ray Diffraction (EDXD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) were used to characterize the nanowires of MnO2.

A system enabling X-ray diffraction patterns under controlled conditions of relative humidity and temperature has been devised and combined with an X-ray powder diffractometer. Relative humidity in the sample space is controlled by mixing dry N2 gas with saturated water vapor. Temperatures of the sample and inner wall of the sample chamber are monitored by two attached thermocouples and the information was fed back to the control unit. Relative humidity between 0% and the 95%, and temperature between room temperature and 60 °C can be controlled. All parameters including those for XRD are programmable and the system runs automatically. The function of the system was checked by recording the XRD patterns of montmorillonite (a clay mineral) and NaCl under increasing and decreasing relative humidity.

We synthesized Fe3O4 microspheres using a solvothermal method and characterized their morphologies, structures, surface property and magnetism by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) absorption spectra, and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The results showed that the synthesized Fe3O4 microspheres with a tunable size range of ca. 80–200 nm are composed of many Fe3O4 collective nanoparticles. XRD pattern confirmed that the Fe3O4 microspheres belong to cubic structure. Magnetic investigation reveals that the Fe3O4 microspheres have higher saturation magnetization and negligible coercivity at room temperature.

This study is focused on the vibrational and microstructural aspects of the thermally induced transformation of serpentine-like garnierite into quartz, forsterite, and enstatite occurring at about 620 °C. Powder specimens of garnierite were annealed in static air between room temperature and 1000 °C. The kinetic of the transformation was investigated by means of thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis, and the final product was extensively characterized via micro-Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Our study shows that serpentine-like garnierite consists of a mixture of different mineral species. Furthermore, these garnierites and their composition can provide details based on the mineralogy and the crystalline phases resulting from the thermal treatment.

A twofold interpenetrating three-dimensional CdIIcoordination framework, [Cd(C8H3NO6)(C14H14N4)]n, has been prepared and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermal analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The asymmetric unit consists of a divalent CdIIatom, one 1,3-bis(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene (1,3-BMIB) ligand and one fully deprotonated 5-nitrobenzene-1,3-dicarboxylate (NO2-BDC2−) ligand. The coordination sphere of the CdIIatom consists of five O-donor atoms from three different NO2-BDC2−ligands and two imidazole N-donor atoms from two different 1,3-BMIB ligands, forming a distorted {CdN2O5} pentagonal bipyramid. The NO2-BDC ligand links three CdIIatomsviaa μ1-η1:η1chelating mode and a μ2-η2:η1bridging mode. The title compound is a twofold interpenetrating 3,5-connected network with the {42.65.83}{42.6} topology. In addition, the compound exhibits fluorescence emissions in the solid state at room temperature.

Fluorination of oxides of rare earths using ammonium hydrogen fluoride at room temperature gave new compounds [NH4]3MF6•nH2O, where M = Y, La, Nd, and Pr. In the case of cerium, [NH4]4CeF8 is formed. The course of thermal decomposition of all these compounds is studied by thermogravimetry/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). Keywords: hexafluoro metallates, rare earths, ammonium hydrogen fluoride, thermal decomposition, X-ray diffraction.
