Порошки стехиометрического и фторзамещенного гидроксиапатита с повышенной активностью к спеканию (температура начала уплотнения составляет 600°С) синтезированы методом осаждения из раствора. Исследованы свойства синтезированных порошков и керамики после обжига. Показано, что введение фторид-ионов позволяет термически стабилизировать фазу апатита до температуры 1000°С, повысить степень дисперсности и площадь удельной поверхности, почти в три раза увеличить микротвердость материала. Сопоставление распределения частиц по размерам в синтезированных порошках и распределения зерен в спеченной керамике подтвердили наследование керамикой наноструктуры исходных порошков. Stoichiometric and fluorsubstituted hydroxyapatite powders with increased sintering activity (the initial compaction temperature is 600°C) were synthesized by precipitation from solutions. Properties of synthesized powders and ceramics after firing were investigated. It is shown that the introduction of fluoride ions can thermally stabilize the apatite phase to a temperature of 1000 °C, increase the degree of dispersion and the specific surface area, and almost three times increase the microhardness of the material. Comparison of the particle size distribution in synthesized powders and the grain distribution in sintered ceramics confirmed that ceramics inherited the nanostructure of the original powders.

NiO nanoparticles with average particle size of 25 nm were successfully prepared by anodic arc plasma method. The composition, morphology, crystal microstructure, specific surface area, infrared spectra, and particle size distribution of product were analyzed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and the corresponding selected area electron diffraction (SAED), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET)N2adsorption. The experiment results show that the NiO nanoparticles are bcc structure with spherical shape and well dispersed, the particle size distribution ranging from 15 to 45 nm with the average particle size is about 25 nm, and the specific surface area is 33 m2/g. The infrared absorption band of NiO nanoparticles shows blue shifts compared with that of bulk NiO.

Clays represent complex polymineral formations. The properties of clays, including sorption, are largely determined by the structure of their crystal lattice, mineral composition and particle size distribution, as well as by environmental conditions. The mineral composition of clays is represented by the energy on the surface of particles; and the particle size distribution is represented by the active surface area of particles. These two complex parameters mainly determine the sorption activity of clays. To change the sorption activity of clays, the latter are subjected to mechanical treatments, thermal modifications, and chemical activations with the use of chemical agents such as acids, alkalis, salts at various exposure times. Therefore, a study of patterns of changes in the structure and sorption properties of clays subjected to pressure was conducted. Experimental studies have shown that if kaolin is subjected to pressure, defects are formed in the structural pack of kaolinite mineral due to the removal of Al3+, Fe3+/2+, Mg2+, Si4+ ions from it. In this case, pressure has the maximum influence on the removal of Al3+ ions from the pack. As a result of the removal of ions, the formation of the defects deforms the crystal lattice of kaolinite. Data obtained through IR spectroscopy confirm the increase of defectiveness (irregularity) of the structure of kaolinite. It has been revealed that when kaolin is subjected to a pressure of 0–150 MPa, the sorption activity mostly depends on рН of the diffuse layer particle solution ZрН = 73 % and crystallite defectiveness degree ZМк = 24 %. The specific surface area of particles ZSsa = 1 % and kaolinite pack defectiveness Zс = 2 % do not have any significant influence on sorption. If kaolin is subjected to a pressure of 150–800 MPa, kaolin sorption activity mostly depends on kaolinite pack defectiveness Zс = 74 % and crystallite pack defectiveness ZМк = 19 %. The specific surface area of particles ZSsa = 3 % and рН of the diffuse layer particle solution ZрН =4 % do not have any significant influence on sorption.

To explore the effect of mechanical activation on the particle size distribution of the composite admixture a self-designed test jet mill is used. We have studied the effects of different specific surface areas of composite admixtures on the workability, mechanical properties and durability of concrete and combined X-ray diffraction (XRD) with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to analyze the mechanism of concrete performance improvement. Results showed that, mechanical activation can significantly increase the content of particles below 3 um; appropriate increase in the specific surface area of composite admixture is conducive to improving the performance of concrete; As the specific surface area increases, the hydration activity of the composite admixture increases first and then tends to be stable; during the hydration process, more thin-plate Ca(OH)2 is converted into needle-shaped AFt, which improves the cement-based material and thereby improving the macro mechanical properties and durability.
