In this work, flower-like [Formula: see text]-AlOOH and [Formula: see text]-Al2O3 nanoarchitectures with excellent surface and mesoporous properties were successfully synthesized in ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal reaction system. The as-prepared suprastructures were characterized by several techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurement. The formation mechanism of flower-like [Formula: see text]-AlOOH mesoporous crystallites by ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal process was proposed and discussed. Flower-like [Formula: see text]-Al2O3 nanostructures were obtained by calcining the as-prepared [Formula: see text]-AlOOH at 600∘C for 2[Formula: see text]h, preserving the same morphology.

Hydrothermal Reaction Time

In this paper, single crystalline 1D tetragonal MnO 2 pen-type nanorods were synthesized by varying the dwell time through a facile hydrothermal route at a reaction temperature of 250°C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies showed that the diameter of MnO 2 nanorods decreases from 460 nm to 250 nm with the increase in hydrothermal reaction time from 5 h to 15 h. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and TEM studies revealed the evolution of improved surface morphology of MnO 2 nanorods that are prepared with longer hydrothermal reaction time. The magnetic properties of the products were evaluated using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) at room temperature, which showed that the as-prepared samples exhibit weak ferromagnetic behavior. The effect of diameter on the magnetization values was observed and discussed in detail.

Perovskite lead titanate crystals with various morphologies were successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal reaction route with different lead sources. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) were employed to characterize the phase composition and the morphology of the synthesized products. In order to investigate the effect of the lead source on the phase formation and morphology evolution of the synthesized pervoskite PbTiO3 crystals, PbO, PbF2, PbSO4 and Pb (CH3COO)3 ·3H2O, were used as starting precursor lead source introduced into the hydrothermal reaction system, respectively. Accordingly, perovskite PbTiO3 brken cubes, irregular particles, cubic particles, and microplates were obtained, respectively. Based on the experimental results, the effect of lead source was simply discussed.

Ordered mesoporous SBA-15 was synthesized through hydrothermal process under acidic condition. The material was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), small-angle X-ray diffraction (SAXRD), and N2 adsorption-desorption. The results indicated that SBA-15 has 2-dimensional hexagonal p6mm mesoscopic structure and well-ordered parallel mesochannel. The as-obtained mesoporous silica was used for controlled release of water-insolube drug emodin. The loading capacity could achieve 6.64 mg/g, and the release profiles that studied in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH = 7.4) showed that released amount of emodin was 95.8 % after 48 h.

The oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is operated at high temperatures and is a highly exothermic reaction; thus, hotspots form on the catalyst surface during reaction unless the produced heat is removed. It is crucial to control the heat formed because surface hotspots can degrade catalytic performance. Herein, we report the preparation of Mn2O3-Na2WO4/SiC catalysts using SiC, which has high thermal conductivity and good stability at high temperatures, and the catalyst was applied to the OCM. Two Mn2O3-Na2WO4/SiC catalysts were prepared by wet-impregnation on SiC supports having different particle sizes. For comparison, the Mn2O3-Na2WO4/SiO2 catalyst was also prepared by the same method. The catalysts were analyzed by nitrogen adsorption–desorption, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The transformation of SiC into α-cristobalite was observed for the Mn2O3-Na2WO4/SiC catalysts. Because SiC was completely converted into α-cristobalite for the nano-sized SiC-supported Mn2O3-Na2WO4 catalyst, the catalytic performance for the OCM reaction of Mn2O3-Na2WO4/n-SiC was similar to that of Mn2O3-Na2WO4/SiO2. However, only the surface layer of SiC was transformed into α-cristobalite for the micro-sized SiC (m-SiC) in Mn2O3-Na2WO4/m-SiC, resulting in a SiC@α-cristobalite core–shell structure. The Mn2O3-Na2WO4/m-SiC showed higher methane conversion and C2+ yield at 800 and 850 °C than Mn2O3-Na2WO4/SiO2.

Hierarchical Microspheres

MnO2hierarchical microsphere has been synthesized by a facile and direct hydrothermal reaction between KMnO4and HCl without the aids of catalysts, surfactants or templates. The as-prepared microsphere, as characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis and nitrogen adsorption and desorption, is in form of K0.27MnO2(H2O )0.54, with a flower-like hierarchical microsphere structure and a BET surface area value of 52 m2/g. The morphology of the product can be simply tailed by controlled by reaction temperature or period and crystallinity can be modified by changing the concentrate of KMnO4. In general, excessive KMnO4and low hydrothermal temperature are favor to forming flower-like hierarchical structure. Besides, the formation mechanisms of the hierarchical schemes are proposed.

We reported a facile hydrothermal route for the preparation of WO3TiO2 composite nanoparticles (TWCNs) using waste WC-TiC hardmetal in the presence of hydrofluoric acid (HF). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and nitrogen adsorption/desorption analysis were employed for structural and composition analyses of the TWCNs. Our results suggested that HF was not only strongly involved in the growth of WO3, but also played a critical role in the etching effect for TWCN product. The photocatalytic activity of TWCNs was investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy. Dye molecules could be rapidly decomposed with TWCNs photocatalyst under visible light illumination. The enhanced photocatalytic activity is attributed to well matched band edge positions of WO3 and TiO2, and the large specific surface area of TWCNs in view of the incorporation of mesopores. The results presented here are expected to make a contribution toward the development of recycling waste resource delicately for photocatalytic water purification.

AbstractNanocrystalline titania particles doped with ruthenium oxide have been prepared by the homogenous hydrolysis of TiOSO4 in aqueous solutions in the presence of urea. The synthesized particles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM), Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED) and Nitrogen adsorption-desorption was used for surface area (BET) and porosity determination (BJH). The photocatalytic activity of the Ru-doped titania samples were determined by photocatalytic decomposition of Orange II dye in an aqueous slurry during irradiation at 365 nm and 400 nm wavelengths.

Lithium titanate microspheres were synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The structure and morphology of samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy, respectively. The specific surface area and average pore diameter of samples were studied by N2adsorption-desorption isotherms. The results indicated that amorphous phase changed to lithium titanium oxide hydrate, accompanying mesopores formed between agglomerated primary particles in hydrothermal reaction. After sintering, mesoporous Li4Ti5O12microspheres assembled by nanosized particle were obtained and had a diameter of about 400–700 nm. Then, a possible formation process analogous to the Kirkendall effect was proposed. Moreover, the effect of sintering temperature on the electrochemical properties of Li4Ti5O12microspheres was investigated.
