Silver nanoparticles were eco-friendly synthesized at room temperature via a Tollens process modified with the stepwise method using eco-friendly precursors (citric acid and acetic acid). The field emission scanning electron spectroscopy was used to study the morphology of silver nanoparticles. The mean size of silver nanoparticles and the components of products were theoretically determined using UV-Vis and X-ray Diffraction spectra. The mole ratio between the silver ion, citric acid and the buffer acid solution (acetic acid) strongly influences the mean size and the composition of the product. The appearance of acetic acid in the buffer acid solution helped increase the efficiency of silver nanoparticles preparation. With the mole ratio n[Ag+]:ncitric:nacetic = 1.0:2.5:2.5, the highest preparation efficiency was obtained, the silver nanoparticles had an average dimension of ˜11 nm and narrow size distribution. The silver nanoparticles were dispersed into different solvents to examine their applicability to silver ink. The silver ink using propylene glycol solvent showed good applicability to silver ink which could work at room temperature.

ABSTRACTIon implantation at room temperature of lead into aluminium leads to spontaneous phase separation and formation of lead precipitates growing topotactically with the matrix. Unlike the highly pressurised (∼ 1–5 GPa) solid inclusions formed after noble gas implantations, the pressure in the lead precipitates is found to be less than 0.12 GPa.Recently we have observed the intriguing result that the lead inclusions in aluminium exhibit both superheating and supercooling [1]. In this paper we review and elaborate on these results. Small implantation-induced lead precipitates embedded in an aluminium matrix were studied by X-ray diffraction. The (111) Bragg peak originating from the lead crystals was followed during several temperature cycles, from room temperature to 678 K. The melting temperature for bulk lead is 601 K. In the first heating cycle we found a superheating of the lead precipitates of 67 K before melting occurred. During subsequent cooling a supercooling of 21 K below the solidification point of bulk lead was observed. In the subsequent heating cycles this hysteresis at the melting transition was reproducible. The full width of the hysteresis loop slowly decreased to 62 K, while the mean size of the inclusions gradually increased from 14.5 nm to 27 nm. The phenomena of superheating and supercooling are thus most pronounced for the small crystallites. The persistence of the hysteresis loop over successive heating cycles demonstrate that its cause is intrinsic in nature, and it is believed that the superheating originates from the lack of free surfaces of the lead inclusions.

Distinguishing among deep-water sedimentary facies has been a difficult task. This is possibly due to the process continuum in deep water, in which sediments occur in complex associations. The lack of definite sedimentological features among the different facies between hemipelagites and contourites presented a great challenge. In this study, we present detailed mudrock characteristics of the three main deep-water facies based on sedimentological characteristics, laser diffraction granulometry, high-resolution, large area scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the synchrotron X-ray diffraction technique. Our results show that the deep-water microstructure is mainly process controlled, and that the controlling factor on their grain size is much more complex than previously envisaged. Retarding current velocity, as well as the lower carrying capacity of the current, has an impact on the mean size and sorting for the contourite and turbidite facies, whereas hemipelagite grain size is impacted by the natural heterogeneity of the system caused by bioturbation. Based on the microfabric analysis, there is a disparate pattern observed among the sedimentary facies; turbidites are generally bedding parallel due to strong currents resulting in shear flow, contourites are random to semi-random as they are impacted by a weak current, while hemipelagites are random to oblique since they are impacted by bioturbation.

Warm compression tests of AZ31 Mg alloy were carried out at five temperatures in 30°C intervals from 210°C to 330°C. The samples of different thickness which were machined from as-cast and pre-strained AZ31 billets were compressed into thickness 1mm and then cooled in the air to room temperature. The microstructural evolution of AZ31 Mg alloy was investigated during warm compression forming. The results show that all the samples have undergone a microstructure changes to different scales in the range investigated. The twinning is the predominant deformation mechanism for magnesium alloys at moderate temperatures and its occurrence is dependent on temperature and strain. Microstructural evaluation indicates that the mean size of the recrystallised grains decreases with increasing effective strain and temperature because of sufficient dynamic recrystallization. The original grain has significant influence on microstructural evolution during warm forming.

High purity nanometer magnesium hydroxide is produced by impinging stream reaction crystallization method using bischofite as feedstock. Effects of operation conditions on the impinging stream of Mg (OH)2 are reported and the control factors of purity are confirmed. The morphology of the powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Result shows that purity of Mg (OH)2 can reach 99% and the mean size of crystal is 13.5nm. Surface modification of nano-sized magnesium hydroxide using four surface modifiers such as sodium steatite, sodium laurylsulfonate, sodium oleate and sodium silicate were investigated in this paper. The modified magnesium hydroxide has smaller particle size, larger powder contact angle, slower sedimentation velocity, the less in-oil capacity than unmodified sample

AbstractMonodisperse non-aggregated nanoparticles of titania are obtained through hydrolysis at 60°C of titanium butoxide in the presence of acetylacetone and para-toluene sulfonic acid. After drying the resulting xerosols can be dispersed without aggregation in water-alcoholic or alcoholic solutions. The characterizations of the nanoparticles have been carried out by using quasi-elastic light scattering (QELS), 13C 1H in solution and X-ray diffraction, TEM, TG-DTA, 13C CP-MAS NMR in the solid state. The mean size of the anatase oxide core can be adjusted in the I to 5 nanometer range by a careful tuning of the synthetic conditions. The anatase particles are surrounded by acetylacetonato ligands, para-toluene sulfonate based species and water.

Novel biodegradable nanocomposites containing multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and poly(citric acid) (PCA) were successfully synthesized. For preparation of nanocomposites, MWCNT was opened using a mixture of sulfuric and nitric acid and its derivative containing – COOH and – OH functional groups was obtained. Polycondensation of monohydrate citric acid in the presence of functionalized MWCNT in the melting state was lead to nanotube-graft-poly(citric acid) (CNT-g-PCA) nanocomposites. The degree of polymerization of grafted hyperbranched poly(citric acid) onto the CNTs was controlled using CNT/citric acid ratio. The CNT-g-PCA were soluble in water freely and stirring their water solution and silver nitrate at room temperature lead to the CNT-g-PCA containing encapsulated silver nanoparticles in their polymeric shell. The structure of nanocomposites was characterized by TEM, DLS and spectroscopy methods.
