Abstract Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) mixed with hydroxyapatite (HAP) has great potential for application as biomaterial. PVA/HAP powder was synthesized by sol–gel technique and was compressed to make pellets. These samples were examined with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical analysis (ECA) techniques. Compound formation of HAP and PVA were studied using XRD and microstructure was investigated by FESEM and AFM. Characteristics properties of the HAP and PVA/HAP composite are compared. Corrosion resistance of PVA/HAP in Ringer solution is better than HAP. Interesting microstructure features are correlated with the corrosion resistance. As the corrosion resistance is related with biocompatibility, the present work can be useful for the hard tissue implant.

NixZn1-xFe2O4 (x=0.4, 0.6) powders are synthesized by sol-gel technique. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements show their polycrystalline spinel structural characteristics. Both XRD and Atomic Force Microscopy demonstrate the samples are nanosized. At room temperature typical soft magnetism is exhibited by the samples. The reflection attenuation resulting from microwave absorption would reach to 1.9 dBm over the frequency range 6 GHz - 10 GHz when the samples are paved on a 10 cm  10 cm square aluminum plate with a thickness of about 0.35 mm.

Cu2MnSnS4 thin film was successfully prepared by a sol-gel technique on soda lime glass substrate from metal salts and thiourea. The structural and morphological properties of the fabricated film were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The combination of the X-ray diffraction results and Raman spectroscopy reveal that this obtained layer is composed by Cu2MnSnS4 phase and has a stannite structure with preferential orientation along the (112) direction. The scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy results show that the synthesized thin film is smooth and compact without any visible cracks or pores. The band gap of the Cu2MnSnS4 thin film is about 1.29 eV determined by the UV-vis-NIR absorption spectra measurement, which indicates it has potential applications in solar cells.

The extent of BiInO3 substitution in the perovskite system xBiInO3–(1 - x)PbTiO3 and the corresponding raise in the Curie temperature were investigated using thermal analysis, dielectric measurements, x-ray diffraction, and electron microscopy. Maximum tetragonal perovskite distortion (c/a = 1.082) was obtained for x = 0.20, with a corresponding Curie temperature of 582 °C. Phase-pure tetragonal perovskite was obtained for x ⩽ 0.25. Compound formation after calcining mixed oxide powders resulted in agglomerated cube-shaped tetragonal perovskite particles, which could be fired to 94.7% of theoretical density (TD). Sol-gel fabrication resulted in nano-sized tetragonal or pseudo-cubic perovskite particles, which after two-step firing, resulted in a tetragonal perovskite microstructure at as high as (x = 0.20) 98.1% of TD.

Electrical properties and morphology of orthorhombic β–WO3 nano-flakes with thickness of ~7-9 nm were investigated at the nanoscale using energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and current sensing force spectroscopy atomic force microscopy (CSFS-AFM, or PeakForce TUNATM). CSFS-AFM analysis established good correlation between the topography of the developed nanostructures and various features of WO3 nano-flakes synthesized via a two-step sol-gel-exfoliation method. It was determined that β–WO3 nano-flakes annealed at 550°C possess distinguished and exceptional thickness-dependent properties in comparison with the bulk, micro- and nano-structured WO3 synthesized at alternative temperatures.

The synthesis of Ni doped titania (TiO2) nanoparticles were achieved via simple novel sol gel technique, in which Titanium-n-butoxide and NiCl2 were taken as precursors. Effect of different wt% of dopant in TiO2 was studied on photocatalytic degradation of Aniline blue and Toluidine Blue. The study suggested the increased photocatalytic degradation with increased time duration. The synthesized samples were analyzed by surface electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction studies. The antibacterial activity was investigated against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus bacteriae.

Composite cathodes made of perovskite La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3 (LSCF) and SDC carbonates (SDC-(Li/Na)2CO3) were investigated in relation to their structure, morphology, thermal expansion coefficient and porosity. As a first step, the LSCF powder was prepared by sol-gel technique. This was followed by the preparation of the LSCF-SDC carbonates composite cathode by mixing the LSCF with SDC-(Li/Na)2CO3 electrolyte via solid state reaction in various compositions, i.e. 30, 40 and 50 wt.%, namely 70LSCF-30SDC7030, 60LSCF-40SDC7030 and 50LSCF-50SDC7030, respectively. The powder mixtures were then calcined at 680oC. The resultant powder was fine with surface area of about 3.39-7.42 m2/g and particle size of 0.56-0.66µm. The powder consists of two distinct phases, i.e. LSCF and SDC-(Li/Na)2CO3 as confirmed with x-ray diffraction. The microstructures were observed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Increasing the amount of the SDC-(Li/Na)2CO3 electrolyte in the composite cathode was found to bring the thermal expansion of the cathode closer to that of the electrolyte. The cathode pellets were later compacted at different pressures (27, 32 and 37 MPa) and sintered at 600oC. The optimum porosity (20.99-24.98%) was achieved for samples with SDC-(Li/Na)2CO3 content of 30-50% sintered at 600oC and cold pressed at 37 MPa.
