And Chemical Properties

In the present work, heterogenous photocatalysis, a technique often used for organic compound degradation toxic in water, was used. The photocatalyst most often used in this technique is TiO2, which, due to its physical and chemical properties, can degrade a great number of organic compounds. In addition, in recent years it has been verified that the doping of semiconductors with metals or metallic oxides increases the photocatalytic activity of these semiconductors, which is why it was proposed for doping by the impregnating method using commercial TiO2 synthesized by the Degussa company (TiO2 Degussa P25) with an oxide of mixed cobalt valence (Co3O4) synthesized using the sol-gel method. The synthesized photocatalyst TiO2/Co3O4 was characterized by the techniques of X-ray diffraction (RXD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy (RS), and, finally, photocatalytic tests by means of the degradation of methylene blue.

In this paper, pure and impure nanopowders of Li(Li0.021Mn0.54Ni0.125Co0.125)O2 were prepared with different percentages (x=0.02%, 0.05%, 0.075%, 0.10%) of Zn impurity by sol-gel method, and the effect of different percentages were investigated on the structural, physical and chemical properties of the samples. These properties of samples characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-scattering microscopy (FESEM), X-ray energy spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the results of characterization were investigation. All the reflection peaks indicate that the samples have standard α-NaFeO2 layered structure with the space group R3m, except for the super lattice ordering between 22°-25°.The FESEM images have shown that these nanoparticles have Hexagonal structures for doped and undoped nanopowders. The particle size of nanopowders in the range of 30-80 nm the chemical analysis of EDS has proven the presence of Zn in the samples. TG /DTA measurements showed weight loss in pure and impure of nanopowders. In infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the connection bonds and chemical elements used in these nanopowders have been investigated.

ABSTRACTThe physical and chemical properties of fly ash produced at Ottumwa Generating Station have been monitored since April, 1985. The fly ash is produced from burning a low sulfur, sub-bituminous coal obtained from the Powder River Basin near Gillette, Wyoming. One-hundred and sixty samples of fly ash were obtained during the two year period. All of the samples were subjected to physical testing as specified by ASTM C 311. About one-hundred of the samples were also subjected to a series of tests designed to monitor the self-cementing properties of the fly ash. Many of the fly ash samples were subjected to x-ray diffraction and fluorescence analysis to define the mineralogical and chemical composition of the bulk fly ash as a function of sampling date. Hydration products in selected hardened fly ash pastes, were studied by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The studies indicated that power plant operating conditions influenced the compressive strength of the fly ash paste specimens. Mineralogical and morphological studies of the fly ash pastes indicated that stratlingite formation occurred in the highstrength specimens, while ettringite was the major hydration product evident in the low-strength specimens.

Aluminum Oxyhydroxide

Natural zeolite of Shivirtui deposit (Russia) was modified with nanofibers of aluminum oxyhydroxide AlOOH. Aluminum oxyhydroxide nanofibers were produced at the heating and oxidation of aluminum powder with water. The properties of modified zeolite were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, transmission electronic microscopy, scanning electronic microscopy, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, thermal analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It was found that water content in the modified sample of zeolite was about 15 %. Based on the study of the physical and chemical properties, shivirtui zeolite modified with nanofibers of aluminum oxyhydroxide can be proposed for use as a flame-retardant additive to polymers.

The composite scaffolds with nine different ratios of nano-HA and ß-TCP content were fabricated by using lyophilization method. Their microscopy, physical and chemical properties were investigated by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. MTT test was applied to quantitatively assess the number of viable cells attached and grown on the scaffolds. And the result showed that the amount of cells on the scaffold containing 30% by mass of nano-HA was significantly higher than the other samples.

The aim of this work is to study some physical and chemical properties of an organic semiconductor (OSc)/ x%titanium dioxide (TiO2) heterosystem (with 0 ≤ x ≤ 20%) (OScs/ x%TiO2). The OSc is obtained from pure curcumin and paracetamol as starting molecules. The synthesis methodology of the mixtures of OScs/ x%TiO2 heterosystem involves a microwave-assisted multicomponent reaction using curcumin, paracetamol, and TiO2 as a heterogeneous solution. All mixtures were analyzed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The results obtained show a new nanocomposite with interesting pharmaceutical, optical, electronic, and structural properties, which can be used in the fields of energy production, water purification, and air purification, as a biomaterial and for electronic applications.

Fe3O4/Mg-Al-NO3-hydrotalcite composite compounds have been synthesized by hydrothermal process followed by calcination to learn the differences in physical and chemical properties of each compound. Hydrothermal was performed at a temperature of 120 °C for 5 h and calcinations was at 450 °C for 3 hours. Characterization of the composite compounds was conducted using the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), the X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). The characterization results showed that crystallinity, surface area and magnetic properties of hydrothermally treated Mg/Al hydrotalcite-magnetite were higher than those unhydrothermal and calcination products.
