Present day technology requires synthesis of materials with low energy consumption, free mercury pollution and its reliability. A novel material with control of crystallite size, composition and simple for white light relies in synthesis of materials. The present focus of article attributes series of manganese doped Ca1-xMnxWO4 luminescent materials with co-precipitation method. Reported studies attempts with change in structure of calcium tungstate (CaWO4) are observed with dopants like Eu3+, Eu2+, Tb3+, etc. However the effect of Mn2+ on structural properties of CaWO4 are quite interesting. The synthesized samples were characterized with X-ray diffraction for lattice parameters, crystallite size and FTIR studies for bonding mechanism of O-W-O stretching and W-O-W bridge bond. Rietveld profile refinement of XRD patterns using MAUD program Ca1-xMnxWO4 revealed the Scheelite type structure with C4h point group and I41/a space group. Characterization studies reveal that doping of Mn2+ doping upto 0.1 in place of Ca2+ will not change the phase of Scheelite structure.

CuxMg1.xFe2O4 nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by co-precipitation. The samples were calcined at 900 oC for 3 h and X-ray diffraction analysis showed that Cu0.5Mg0.5Fe2O4 had a single phase cubic spinel structure, while formation of secondary phase of Fe2O3 was observed in XRD patterns of CuFe2O4, MgFe2O4. The saturation magnetization (Ms) of Cu0.5Mg0.5Fe2O4 is in between the saturation magnetization values of CuFe2O4 and MgFe2O4 nanoparticles, CuFe2O4 is a ferromagnetic material, while MgFe2O4 and Cu0.5Mg0.5Fe2O4 show superparamagnetic behavior. The synthesized spinel ferrites were fully characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FTIR spectroscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and UV-vis spectrophotometry.

Nano crystalline powders of Co-Ni ferrite compounds having the chemical formula Co(x)Ni(1-x) Fe2O4( x = 0.0, 0.2 and 1.0) have been successfully synthesized by co-precipitation technique. These synthesized compounds are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scan electron microscopy (FESEM), fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectrum, energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDX) and TGA-DTA. The XRD analyses of the samples sintered at 600 °C clearly show the formation of single cubic spinel structure. XRD patterns are further analyzed to calculate the lattice constant and jump length of charge carriers. Average crystalline sizes for ferrite powders are determined from XRD line using Debye-Scherrer's formula is found to be in the range of 16 to 19 nm with narrow size distribution. The Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectrum characterization of the  spinel ferrite structure sintered at 600 °C shows two fundamental strong band in the range 385-600 cm-1, which is attributed to different main metal-oxygen bands.

We report in this paper, the structural and I-V properties of ZnO nano needle-like structure synthesized by Co-precipitation method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) result shows that the ZnO nano needle-like structure with hexagonal phase and no secondary phase was observed. The crystallite size has been calculated by Scherrer’s equation which was found to be in the range 40-60 nm. SEM images reveal that ZnO nano needle-like structure has the length of ~5.5 µm and base of ~5 µm are consistent with the results from SEM investigations. I-V characteristics have been carried out to study the conducting behaviour of the prepared ZnO nano needle-like structures.

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) and hydroxyapatite/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composites were obtained by the co-precipitation method, followed by ultrasound-assisted and microwave radiation and thermal treatment at 250 °C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the presence of a hexagonal phase in all the samples, while Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy elucidated the interaction between HAp and MWCNTs. The photoluminescent technique revealed that HAp and the composite with non-functionalized MWCNTs present a blue luminescence, while the composite with functionalized MWCNTs, under UV-vis radiation shows an intense white emission. These findings allowed presentation of a proposal for the use of HAp and HAp with functionalized MWCNTs as potential materials for optoelectronic and medical applications.

In this study, the photocatalytic activity of pure Fe- doped ZnO and Fe- doped ZnO/Montmorillonite nanocomposite has been investigated for the degradation of malachite green under UV light irradiation. Both photocatalysts were synthesized using co-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared absorption, and electron spin resonance. The results showed that the photocatalytic efficiency is better in the presence of montmorillonite compared to pure Fe- doped ZnO. To detect the possible reactive species involved in degradation of organic dyes control experiments with introducing scavengers into the solution of organic dyes were carried out. It is found that electron plays an important role in the degradation of malachite green.

ABSTRACTThe microstructure of Ni-Mg-Al mixed oxides obtained by thermal decomposition of hydrotalcite-like compounds synthesized by a co-precipitation method has been studied by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM). XRD patterns revealed the formation of NixMg1-xO (x=0÷1), α-Al2O3 and traces of MgAl2O4 and NiAl2O4 phases. The peaks profile analysis indicated a small grain size, microdeformations and partial overlapping of peaks due to phases with different, but similar interplanar spacings. The microdeformations point out the presence of dislocations and the peaks shift associated with the presence of excess vacancies. The use of atomic resolution TEM made it possible to identify the phases, directly observe dislocations and demonstrate the vacancies excess. Atomic resolution TEM is achieved by applying an Exit Wave Reconstruction procedure with 40 low dose images taken at different defocus. The current results suggest that vacancies of metals are predominant in MgO (NiO) crystals and that vacancies of Oxygen are predominant in Al2O3 crystals.

The objective of this study was to develop a novel silica modified large-sized hydroxyapatite whiskers with improved properties for use in bone repair applications. Large-sized whiskers with a mean length of 250μm were obtained by a hydrothermal co-precipitation method at 150°C, 7.5Mpa in high-pressure reactor. Silica modified hydroxyapatite whiskers were prepared by dissolving TEOS in ethanol solution, then sintering with hydroxyapatite. The compositional and morphological properties of prepared whiskers were studied by means of x-ray diffraction (XRD), Fouier transform infrared (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated the evidence of nanosilicon dioxide particles on the surface of HAP whiskers. The size of nanosilicon dioxide particles depends on dropping and stirring rate. Hence, this new type of silica modified large-sized hydroxyapatite whiskers is a valuable candidate for biomedical applications.Key words: hydroxyapatite, hydrothermal co-precipitation, surface modified, whiskers

KTiOPO4 nanoparticles are known as the best candidate to utilize for second-harmonic generation in multiphoton microscopes and bio labels. Size and shape are important and effective parameters to control the properties of nanoparticles. In this paper, we will investigate the role of capping agent concentration on the size and shape control of KTP nanoparticles. We synthesized KTP nanoparticles by the co-precipitation method. Polyvinyl alcohol with different mole ratios to titanium ion (1:3, 1:2, 1:1) was used as a capping agent. Products were examined by X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron microscopy analyses. X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the formation of the KTP structure. The biggest (56.36nm) and smallest (39.42nm) grain size were obtained by 1:3 and 1:1 mole ratios of capping agent, respectively. Dumbly, spherical and polyhedral forms of KTP nanoparticles were observed by the change in capping agent mole ratio. The narrowest size distribution of KTiOPO4 nanoparticles was obtained at 1:1 mole ratio of capping agent. Doi: 10.28991/HIJ-2020-01-04-06 Full Text: PDF
