ABSTRACTMagnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical precipitation synthesis method. The influence of the nano-sized Mg(OH)2 on the structural modification was evaluated. The formation of Mg(OH)2 crystals were evaluated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The particle size and morphology of Mg(OH)2was confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The crystalline structure of nanoparticles was characterized by fast Fourier transform (FFT) and X-Ray diffraction (XRD), like analytical tools.

Nanoscale LiTaO3 powders with perovskite structure were synthesized using the solvothermal technique with glycol as solvent at 240°C for 12h. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). XRD was used to elucidate room temperature structures using Rietveld refinement. The powders were pure single pervoskite phase with high crystallinity. FESEM and TEM were used to determine particle size and morphology. The average LiTaO3 grain size was estimated to be < 200nm, and TEM images indicated that LiTaO3 particles had a brick-like morphology. In addition, the effect of the temperature on the LiTaO3 power characterisitics was also detailed studied.

Cellulose nanocrystals were prepared using ionic liquids (ILs), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [EMIM][Cl] and 1-propyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [PMIM][Cl], from microcrystalline cellulose. The resultant samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), dynamic light scattering (DLS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD results showed that nanocellulose obtained by treatment with both ILs preserved basic cellulose I structure, but crystallinity index of samples (except for Sigmacell treated with [EMIM][Cl]) was lower in comparison to the starting microcrystalline cellulose. The DLS results indicated noticeably smaller particle sizes of prepared cellulose for material treated with [PMIM][Cl] compared to cellulose samples hydrolyzed with [EMIM][Cl], which were prone to agglomeration. The obtained nanocellulose had a rod-like structure that was confirmed by electron microscopy analyses. Moreover, the results described in this paper indicate that cation type of ILs influences particle size and morphology of cellulose after treatment with ionic liquids.

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) was synthesized in the presence of a variety of amino acids in order to investigate the effect of amino acid on the morphology of HAp obtained by homogeneous precipitation and hydrothermal treating. In the results of X-ray diffraction analysis, HAp synthesized in the presence of some amino acids showed different crystallinity compared with HAp synthesized in the absence of amino acid. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy suggested the adsorption of these amino acids on HAp. Microphotographs of transmission electron microscope showed that the size and morphology of HAp adsorbed amino acids changed significantly. Collectively, this study suggests that the morphology and the crystallinity of synthesized HAp are different owing to the variation of amino acids in the synthesizing condition.

The particle size and morphology have a strong influence on the electrochemical performance of FeS2electrodes. In this paper, a simple one-pot solvothermal method is reported for the synthesis of macroporous pyrite nanotubes for the first time. The phase composition, morphology and structure of the as-obtained products were studied by the energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscopy, (high-resolution) transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction. The electrochemical properties of the FeS2samples were also investigated. The results demonstrated that the macroporous pyrite nanotubes delivered a higher initial discharge capacity of 925.2 mAh g-1and had good capacity retention.

A nanocrystalline HZSM-5 zeolite was directly synthesized by two-stage varying-temperature synthesis method. The effects of second stage time and temperature on the particle size and morphology were of interest. The morphology of particles were specified by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and crystallinity of the samples were recorded by X-ray diffraction (XRD) test results. It was observed that second stage time had a strong effect on crystallinity and morphology; a highly crystalline ZSM-5 zeolite with twinned crystals was synthesised at 180 °C, 60h (second stage time and temperature ). The HZSM-5 particles synthesised at 180 °C, 18h (second stage time and temperature ) were 300600 nm in size and constructed by primary HZSM-5 nanocrystals of 20~30 nm.

CeO2-based solid solutions in which Pd partially substitutes for Ce attract considerable attention, owing to their high catalytic performances. In this study, the solid solution (Ce1−xPdxO2−δ) with a high Pd content (x ~ 0.2) was synthesized through co-precipitation under oxidative conditions using molten nitrate, and its structure and thermal decomposition were examined. The characteristics of the solid solution, such as the change in a lattice constant, inhibition of sintering, and ionic states, were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy–energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM−EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM)−EDS, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The synthesis method proposed in this study appears suitable for the easy preparation of CeO2 solid solutions with a high Pd content.

In this paper, uniform and superparamagnetic nanoparticles have been prepared using one-step polyol synthesis method. Structural, morphological and magnetic properties of obtained MnFe2O4 nanoparticles have been investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques. Structural investigation showed that the average crystallite size of obtained nanoparticles was about 10[Formula: see text]nm. Magnetic study revealed that the nanoparticles were superparamagnetic at room temperature with magnetization 67[Formula: see text]emu/g at room temperature. The self-heating characteristics of synthesized MnFe2O4 nanoparticles were studied by applying external AC magnetic field of 167.6 to 335.2[Formula: see text]Oe at a fixed frequency of 265[Formula: see text]kHz. The SAR values of MnFe2O4 nanoparticles were calculated for 2, 5, 10[Formula: see text]mg[Formula: see text]mL[Formula: see text] concentrations and it is observed that the threshold hyperthermia temperature is achieved for all concentrations.

In this work, silver nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized using simple and environmentally friendly ‘green synthesis’ method using Indonesian wild honey as mediator. Particle count and size can be optimized by varying the silver nitrate precursor and honey concentration, with the help of sodium hydroxide as pH regulator. Based on X-ray diffraction (XRD) result, crystalline structure of Ag has been confirmed in sample with impurities from AgCl. Based on dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results, it was found that the smallest average particles size of AgNPs (117.5 nm from DLS and 11.1 nm from TEM) was obtained at sample with 5% w/v of honey and 0.5 mM of AgNO3.

Core/shell type nanoparticles with an average diameter of 20nm were synthesized by chemical precipitation method. Firstly, Monodisperse Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesized by solvethermal method. FeSO4ž7H2O and NaBH4 were respectively dissolved in distilled water, then moderated Fe3O4 particles and surfactant(PVP) were ultrasonic dispersed into the FeSO4ž7H2O solution. The resulting solution was stirred 2 h at room temperature. Fe could be deposited on the surface of monodispersed Fe3O4 nanoparticles to form core-shell particles. The particles were characterized by using various experimental techniques, such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), AGM and DTA. The results suggest that the saturation magnetization of the nanocomposites is 100 emu/g. The composition of the samples show monodisperse and the sides of the core/shell nanoparticles are 20-30nm. It is noted that the formation of Fe3O4/Fe nanocomposites magnetite nanoparticles possess superparamagnetic property.

Calcium tartrate finds various applications. In the present study, calcium tartrate nanoparticles were synthesized by wet chemical method using surfactant mediated approach. The powder XRD pattern revealed the typical broadening of peaks indicating the nanostructured nature. The average crystallite size was calculated by applying the Scherrer's formula to powder XRD pattern and was found in the range of 22.8–23.9 nm. The particle size and morphology of the synthesized nanoparticles was confirmed by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). FTIR spectroscopy was used to confirm the presence of various functional groups. From TGA, it was found that calcium tartrate nanoparticles remained stable up to 120°C and were having two water molecules associated with them. The results are compared with the bulk crystalline materials available in the literature.
