We examined the crystallization impact of the surfactant, 2-aminonicotinic acid and/or β-cyclodextrin on the formation of two anhydrous metal carbonates, MCO3 (M = Ca2+ and Sr2+), from their respective calcium chloride and strontium chloride salts along with NaHCO3 at room temperature. By varying the concentrations of this hybrid surfactant to the concentrations of MCO3 during the preparations and examined their particle sizes by PXRD, FTIR, TGA and SEM. The characterization on these newly formed anhydrous metal carbonates clearly indicated that CaCO3 formed with three different shapes such as truncated calcite, hexagonal calcite and rod shaped aragonite. Whereas, SrCO3 formed with two different shapes such as hexagonal poles and bloom scale bars by varying concentrations of the surfactants. The mixed surfactant certainly made an impact on the metal carbonates formations with different shapes and sizes by varying surfactants concentrations and conditions.

AbstractA novel environmental friendly, room temperature route using an ionic liquid 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydroxide ([BMIM]OH) for the synthesis of Mn3O4 nanoparticles is presented. The product was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy. Phase purity was confirmed by XRD, and X-ray line profile fitting determined a crystallite size of 42 ± 11 nm. TEM analysis revealed various morphologies. EPR measurements have indicated the existence of long-range interactions, due to the wide range of particle sizes and morphologies observed.

Using intermittent bubbling carbonation method to prepare nanoCaCO3, the effect of crystal orientation agents on the morphology of nanoCaCO3 was studied. The nanoCaCO3 was characterized by means of field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Laser particle analyzer. The results showed that the different shapes nanoCaCO3 was synthesized by adding different crystal orientation agents to control the shape of the product. The as-prepared CaCO3 were pure calcite crystal and the average particle sizes were within the range of 25.7 to 60.9 nm.

The hydrophobic gold nanoparticles with monodispersity are synthesized by using n-butanol reduction in situ under the condition of alkali promotion in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)/n-butanol/n-heptane/HAuCl4/NaOH(aq) W/O microemulsion at 30°C. The CTAB-stabilized gold nanoparticles are characterized by UV-vis, TEM , XRD and so on. The replacement of simple surfactant (CTAB ) with mixed surfactant CTAB/ octadecylamine can weaken the direction of CTAB to the growth of gold nanopartices and increase the monodispersity of gold nanoparticles. The effects of components of the microemulsion system on the shape, size and monodispersity of gold nanoparticles are also explored. The results show that the size of gold particles is changed by the amount of CTAB and C18NH2.

Platinum and palladium powders with average particle sizes in the submicron range have been synthesized at room temperature by hydrazine reduction of and , respectively, in glycols. Platinum powders contain spherical particles with a bimodal size distribution. Palladium powders also contain spherical particles, but the size distribution is narrow. The effect of both ammonia and hydrazine concentration on the size distribution and average size of palladium particles was investigated.
