AbstractThe phosphates M0.5+x M′x Zr2−x (PO4)3 (M–Ca, Mn, Co, Sr, Cd, Ba, Pb; M′–Mg, Mn, Co) were synthesized by sol-gel method with the following thermal treatment of reaction mixtures. X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy and electron microprobe analysis showed that the obtained phosphates crystallized in Sc2(WO4)3 (SW) and NaZr2(PO4)3 (NZP) structural types. Both types of crystal structures are based on a framework comprised of octahedra and tetrahedra, the difference between them is fragments orientation. Thermal expansion of the phosphates was studied in the temperature range 20–800°C. Some compounds were found to belong to low-expanding materials (αav ~2·10−6°C−1).

Biomorphic silicon carbide (bioSiC) was prepared by high temperature pyrolysis and sol-gel and carbothermal reduction processing at 1600 oC. The morphology and microstructure of carbon-silica composites and purified bioSiC samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The phase composition of the resulting sample was analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The results suggest that the bioSiC mainly consists of cubic ß-SiC, and principally replicates the shape and microstructure of the carbon template.

Biomorphic TiO2 was prepared by high temperature pyrolysis and a modified sol-gel route. The morphology and microstructure of TiO2 samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The phase composition of the resulting sample was analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The results suggest that the biomorphic TiO2 mainly consists of rutile TiO2, and replicates the shape and part microstructure of the carbon template.

Nitrogen doped TiO2/sepiolite composite materials (N-TiO2/sep) with different nitrogen contents were prepared by a sol-gel method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. XRD and SEM results showed that anatase-TiO2nanoparticles were distributed homogenously on the surface of sepiolite. XPS revealed that N atoms could incorporate into the lattice of anatase TiO2substituting the oxygen atoms sites of oxygen atoms.

Aluminium borate nanowhiskers with varying aspect ratio were synthesized via sol–gel synthesis. The morphology of aluminum borate (Al4B2O9 and Al18B4O33) nanowhiskers could be controlled by varying the aluminum to boron (Al:B) molar ratio in the sol–gel derived precursors. Sintering temperatures (850 and 1100°C) and sintering times (4 and 32 hours) also affected the phase composition and size of the nanowhiskers. Citric acid was also added in the sol–gel derived precursors as a surface stabilizer for obtaining uniform finely dispersed nanostructures. Fine nanowhiskers were obtained by the calcination at 850°C, whereas higher temperature of 1100°C led to thicker and longer nanowhiskers and became rod-like crystals. The morphology and phase composition were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. Chemical bond vibrations in the synthesized nanowhiskers were investigated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy.

Sm (Co or/and Zn) substituted nanocrystalline barium hexaferrites were synthesized by the sol–gel auto-combustion process, then X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) were used to characterize and discuss the phase composition and the magnetic properties of the as-prepared barium hexaferrites. All results showed that the phase composition and magnetic properties were closely related to the doping elements and x. Owing to hyperfine field, canting spin, magnetic dilution and impurity phases, the saturation magnetization (Ms) of all samples increased firstly, and then decreased. Considering the crystallization, the magnetocrystalline anisotropy and the ions occupancy, the doping elements and x critically affected the coercivity (Hc). Compared the magnetic properties of all the samples, it is concluded that Zn 2+ and Co 2+ influenced each other and Zn 2+ occupied 4f2 sites prior to Co 2+, which led to the increase of Ms and the decrease of Hc.

This study describes the preparation and study of the properties of Nano composite particles prepared in a sol-gel method which consists of two materials (Αl2Ο3-MgΟ). The powder was evaluated by x-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy analysis (SEM), particle size analysis, and energy dispersive x-ray analysis (EDX) and antibacterial test. The evaluation results of the nanocomposite particles shows a good distribution of the chemical composition between aluminum oxide and magnesium oxide, smoothness in particles  size where it reached to (54.9, 59.8) nm at calcination in (550 0C and 850 0C) respectively, formation of different shapes of nanoparticles and different  phases of the Αl2Ο3 particles (kappa and gamma) and nanopowder have well antibacterial action, Therefore, this reflects the efficiency of the proposed method to manufacture the nanocomposite powder and the possibility of using this powder as a strengthening material for the composite materials and using these composite materials in bio applications, especially in the fabrication of artificial limbs.

The hydrophobic properties of the surface of an enamel material are reported in this paper. By using a sol-gel method and with tetraethoxysilane as the precursor which is combined with dimethyldichlorosilane (DDS), the films composed of DDS-SiO2nanoparticle composite materials were prepared on an enamel surface, with the droplet’s contact angle increased, and the properties of the enamel surface changed from hydrophilic to hydrophobic. The properties were tested, the hydrophobic mechanism was studied based on the investigation of the microstructure and the crystal structures of the film by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and infrared spectrum analysis.

Zirconium silicate thin film was prepared via a novel non-hydrolytic sol-gel (NHSG) process at low temperature using zirconium tetrachloride (ZrCl4) and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as precursors. The phase composition and the microstructure of samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The results demonstrate that pure ZrSiO4 film can be synthesized by using ethanol and isopropanol as solvent rather than dimethyl formamide (DMF) and dimethyl nylon acid (DBE) which cause impurity ZrO2. However, only ethanol can achieved smooth and dense ZrSiO4 film. The viscosity results suggest that the sol with ethanol has great stability. With a pulling rate of 1.0 mm s-1, a high quality ZrSiO4 film was prepared after drying at 50 oC for 2 h and calcination at 850 °C with a heating rate of 1.0 °C min-1.

Using a sol-gel method and impregnation technology to produce nanoenamel coating on polished Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The morphology, structure and phase composition of nanoenamel coatings modified on mild steel were identified with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electro microscopy (SEM) and tested by some electrochemical methods, such as open circuit potential and potentiodynamic polarization testing [1]. All of these method can select the samples which perform the best corrosion resisitance.
