Cobalt and nickel based catalysts for ethanol steam reforming have been prepared. Preparation of Na-Ni-Mo/C, Na-Co-Mo/C, K-Ni-Mo/C and K-Co-Mo/C have been carried out using sol-gel method by applying citric acid as complexion agent and source for support formation. Prepared catalyst via sol gel showed tailored morphological properties signed by tailored pore size distribution. The acidity of catalyst showed that all catalysts contain only Lewis acid site. The catalyst activity test was conducted by using semi flow method with molar ratio of ethanol : water = 0.33 at 400 oC   Keywords: sol-gel method, steam reforming, ethanol

Doped Zno

Zinc oxide is one of the most important semiconducting metal oxides and one of the most promising n-type materials, but its practical use is limited because of both its high thermal conductivity and its low electrical conductivity. Numerous studies have shown that doping with metals in ZnO structures leads to the modification of the band gap energy. In this work, Al-doped ZnO, Ni-doped ZnO, and undoped ZnO nanocrystalline powders were prepared by a sol–gel method coupled with ultrasound irradiation, and the results show the influence of Al3+ and Ni2+ ions in the ZnO network. The doping concentrations in ZnO of 0.99 atom % for ZnO–Al and 0.80 atom % for ZnO–Ni were obtained by X-ray Fluorescence (XRF). X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Raman Spectroscopy showed a decreased intensity and broadening of main peaks, indicating metallic ions. The crystallite size of the sample was decreased from 24.5 nm (ZnO) to 22.0 nm (ZnO–Al) and 21 nm (ZnO–Ni). The textural and morphological properties were analyzed via Nitrogen Adsorption (BET method) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM).

Silica Synthesis

AbstractThis study focuses on the optimization process of silica synthesis using the sol-gel method while applying a statistical design of experiments which was based on a multilevel mathematical model. The product obtained in the process of optimized synthesis, characterized by the best dispersive and morphological parameters, was used for the preparation of organic/inorganic composites. The organic precursor was Kraft lignin, a high-molecular natural polymer. Synthesis of silica/lignin biocomposites was carried out by three proposed methods. The physicochemical properties and dispersive-morphological properties of each product were determined using the following available methods: Scanning Electron Microscopy — SEM, Non-Invasive Back-Scattering — NIBS, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy — FT-IR, Thermogravimetric analysis — TG and others. The electrokinetic and thermal properties of the biocomposites sufficed to be applied for example, as a cheap and biodegradable polymer filler. Further areas of application of these composites were sought, especially in electrochemistry as the advanced electrode materials.

The polycrystalline Ca0.9La0.05Bi0.05Mn1-xNixO3 (x = 0.025, 0.05, 0.075) samples were synthesized by sol-gel method. All samples were calcined at 650°C for 8 hours and sintered at 900°C for 8 hours. The structural and morphological properties of the samples were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). The rietveld refinement shows that all samples were having an orthorhombic structure with pnma space group despite having different Ni content. Furthermore, the average crystallite size decreases with Ni substituion. SEM result shows the average grain size decreases with increasing Ni substitution regardless of the same heat treatment. This result will affect other properties like electrical and magnetic properties.

ron-zircon pigment has been synthesized by non-hydrolytic sol-gel method using zirconium chloride and tetraethoxysilane as precursors, anhydrous ferric chloride as colorant, lithium fluoride as mineralizer and anhydrous ethanol as solvent. Iron-zircon pigment has been characterized by means of DTA-TG, XRD, Colorimeter and TEM. The results show that only a small fraction of iron is incorporated in the zircon crystal structure while the remaining iron cations are trapped within the zircon matrix. The iron-zircon with the red value (a*) of 20.64 can be synthesized at 700°C with the optimum Fe/Zr molar ratio of 0.2.

γ–Fe2O3/SiO2 and Fe/SiO2 nanocomposites, with a Fe/Si molar ratio of 0.25, were prepared by the sol-gel method starting from ethanolic solutions of tetraethoxysilane and iron (III) nitrate. After gelation the xerogels were oxidated or reduced. Samples were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetry. Magnetic properties of the samples were investigated at room temperature (RT) and at 77 K. Nanometric particles supported in the silica matrix were obtained in all cases. Bigger particles (10 nm) were obtained in the case of Fe/SiO2 nanocomposites with respect to the γ–Fe2O3/SiO2 samples (5–8 nm). A slight effect of sol dilution on particle size was observed only in the case of γ–Fe2O3/SiO2 nanocomposites. A superparamagnetic behavior was shown at RT only by γ–Fe2O3/SiO2 nanocomposites. Iron-based composites exhibited coercivity values higher than 700 Oe at RT.
