AbstractThe transition metal forms of α-zirconium-. titanium-, and hafnium phosphates were prepared by ion exchange method. Their structure was investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) method. It was found that the transition metal containing phosphates have the same layered structure as the pristine tetravalent metal phosphates, except for the increase of interlayer distance from 7.6 Å to ∼9.5 Å. As a result of the incorporation of transition metals in the layers, the c-axis is increased from ∼15 Å to ∼20 Å (in the case of titanium phosphate to ∼25 Å). All other parameters (a, b and β °) are practically unchanged.

ABSTRACTThe layered compounds of formula LiNi0.4Mn0.6-yCoyO2, for y=0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 and LiNi0.7-yMn0.3CoyO2 for y=0.3, and 0.1 were synthesized at 800°C. X-ray powder diffraction indicates layered structure of R 3m symmetry similar to a-NaFeO2. Rietveld refinement data shows that Mn and Ni increase the tendency of transition metal ions to migrate into the interlayer sites relative to LiCoO2. Both magnetic susceptibility and XPS data support a 2+ oxidation state for Ni and 4+ and 3+ for Mn and Co, respectively. The layered compound LiNi0.4Mn0.4Co0.2O2 shows a high initial capacity of about 200mAh/g when cycled between 2.5V and 4.3 V at 20°C.

Sn-containing hydrotalcite-like compounds were prepared by three different methods such as (i) direct synthesis, (ii) ion-exchange and (iii) grafting. These catalysts were proved to have framework Sn species by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and UV-vis spectroscopy. The catalysts prepared by three methods were found to be active and selective for the liquid phase Baeyer–Villiger (BV) oxidation of admantonone using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an oxidant and acetonitrile as a solvent. The Sn-hydrotalcite-like catalysts prepared by ion-exchange method exhibited better catalytic performance than the catalysts prepared by other two methods. Among the ion-exchanged hydrotalacite-like catalysts, 3% Sn ion-exchanged hydrotalcite exhibited superior activity at 30% conversion and 100% selectivity.

A series of organic montomorilonite were prepared by using Sodium monanorilonite(Na-MMT) as raw material and quaternary ammonium salts with different chain long as intercalation agents by the way of ion exchange method. Weightlessness experiment showed that intercalated agents could alleviate the corrosion of metal. The MMT and organic MMT (OMMT) were identified by infrared spectra (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that intercalation agents had intercalated into the interlayer space of MMT, and the spacing of MMT layers had increased from 1.51 nm to 2.94 nm.

Na1.614Li0.386Ti6O13 Single crystal was synthesized by a Li+ ion-exchange method from Na2Ti6O13 single crystal in a molten salt of LiNO3. The obtained Na1.614Li0.386Ti6O13 single-crystal is colorless and has the shape of a rod. Na1.614Li0.386Ti6O13 crystallizes in the monoclinic tunnel type structure, space group C2/m, and lattice parameters a = 15.144(2) Å, b = 3.7492(5) Å, c = 9.162(2) Å and β = 99.0131(9)º. The structure was determined by a single-crystal X-ray study and refined to the conventional values of R = 0.0247 and wR = 0.0451 for 969 independent observed reflections.
