CdS is an important wide bandgap chalcogenides most popularly studied for various optoelectronics and biosensing applications. In this study, CdS Nanoparticles (NPs) have been prepared successfully by chemical co-precipitation method, using cadmium acetate and sodium sulphide as precursors. A comparative study of average particle size calculated by Scherrer Plot, Uniform Deformation Model (UDM), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) analysis and Brus Model has been done here. The structural and optical behaviour of synthesized samples were investigated via X-ray diffraction (XRD), DLS and UV–Visible Spectroscopy. The XRD spectra of the prepared CdS NPs revealed the crystalline phase having cubic structure. The average particles size has been studied via Debye Scherrer equation and Scherrer Plot. For the theoretical calculations of particle size along with the induced lattice strain, considering the broadening effect of lattice strain, Williamson-Hall analysis was employed. Assuming the lattice strain to be isotropic in nature, UDM was applied for calculation. The particles size distribution profile in terms of volume as well as intensity was recorded using DLS analysis in ethanol medium at room temperature. Besides this, the energy bandgap was obtained by applying Tauc model in the recorded absorption spectra. The obtained value of bandgap was used in Brus model for estimating the average particle size. The obtained comparative results show that the average particle size of the prepared CdS NPs estimated from Scherrer equation, Scherrer plot, UDM plot and Brus model are almost similar and lies in the range of 2-5 nm whereas the results of DLS showed wide variation in the range of 40-600 nm.

Calcium carbonate nanoparticles and nanorods were synthesized by precipitation from saturated sodium carbonate and calcium nitrate aqueous solutions through co precipitation method. A new rout of synthesis was done by both using pulsed mixing method and controlling the addition of calcium nitrate. The effect of the agitation speed, and the temperature on particle size and morphology were investigated. Particles were characterized using X-ray Microanalysis, X-ray analysis (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that increasing the mixer rotation speed from 3425 to 15900 (rpm) decreases the average particle size to 64±7 nm. A rapid nucleation then aggregation induced by excessive shear force phenomena could explain this observation. Moreover, by increasing the reaction temperature, the products were converted from nanoparticle to nanorods. The maximum attainable aspect ratio was 6.23 at temperature of 75°C and rotation speed of 3425. Generally, temperature raise promoted a significant homoepitaxial growth in one direction toward the formation of calcite nanorods. Overall, this study can open new avenues to control the morphology of the calcium carbonate nanostructures.

AbstractYb:YAG transparent ceramic nano-powder was prepared by chemical co-precipitation method, with ammonium bicarbonate as the precipitant and polyethylene glycol as surfactant. The addition of polyethylene glycol can reduce the agglomeration and particle size of the prepared Yb:YAG powder. The morphology, thermal stability and phase structure of Yb:YAG nano-powder were charactered by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The results show that well-crystallized nano-powder was obtained by calcining the precursors at 900 °C for 3 h. The average particle size of Yb:YAG powder is about 100–200 nm. When the volume amount of polyethylene glycol is 2.0%, well-dispersed Yb:YAG powder with spherical particles of 100 nm diameter was obtained.

Nanostructured iron and cobalt ferrite particles were prepared from iron chloride and cobalt chloride, respectively, using the sonochemical method. The particles were compared with those synthesized using the co-precipitation method. The properties of the particles were characterized using various techniques, such as XRD, TEM, VSM and a SQUID magnetometer. The iron ferrite particles had an average particle size of about 15 nm and a magnetization value of 83 emu/g at a magnetic field of 50 kOe, while the particle size of cobalt ferrite was about 5 nm and its magnetization value was 33 emu/g at the same magnetic field.

In this work, PrFeO3 nanoparticles were synthesized by modified co-precipitation method and annealed at different temperatures up to 850?C. The annealed PrFeO3 nanoparticles have single phase orthorhombic structure and the average particle size of 25-30 nm. Due to the very small particle size the prepared PrFeO3 nanoparticles are capable of being used as photocatalyst materials thanks to their strong adsorption bands at 230-400 nm and 400-800 nm observed from the UV-Vis spectra. Additionally, the PrFeO3 nanoparticles are paramagnetic materials with Hc ~ 10Oe and Mr ~ 0. These findings demonstrate their potential use not only as photocatalysts, but also as magnetic materials.

The recent development of the using the magnetic nanoparticles for hyperthermia treatments emphasizes the needed of smart materials to become a safety for heat therapy. Self-regulate magnetic nanoparticles of MnZnFe2O4 may be proper for thermal treatments. Structure and magnetic properties of the synthesis Mn1-xZnx Fe2O4 with x=0- 0.5 by step 0.1were studied. Superparamagnetic nanoparticles of MnZnFe2O4 were prepared by co-precipitation method, followed that heat treatment in the autoclave reactor. XRD results showed that is difficult to prepare MnZnFe2O4 directly using the co-precipitation method. Preparation method yield nanoparticles with spherical shape and there is a slight change in the particle size distribution, also observed shrinkage occurs in the particle size after heat treatments, the average particle size was estimated about 20nm as confirmed by FESEM images. FTIR spectra of samples showed two distinct absorption peaks in the range ~ 617 – 426 (cm-1) related to stretching vibrations of the (Fe-O) in the tetrahedral and octahedral side respectively. Magnetic measurements were carried out using (VSM), M-H curves indicate typical soft magnetic materials and particles so small to be identical superparamagnetic nanoparticles. Heating ability of water based colloidal dispersions of samples were studied under magnetic field strength 6.5kA/m and the frequency 190 kHz, and the results showed when increasing Zn2+ to x=0.3 or more the samples not heated up. Depending on the heating curve susceptibility, effective relaxation time and Néel relaxation time , were determined.

This study was carried out to prepare and characterize domperidone nanoparticles to enhance solubility and the release rate. Domperidone is practically insoluble in water and has low and an erratic bioavailability range from 13%-17%. The domperidone nanoparticles were prepared by solvent/antisolvent precipitation method at different polymer:drug ratios of 1:1 and 2:1 using different polymers and grades of poly vinyl pyrolidone, hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose as stabilizers. The effect of polymer type, ratio of polymer:drug, solvent:antisolvent ratio, stirring rate and stirring time on the particle size, were investigated and found to have a significant (p? 0.05) effect on particle size. The best formula was obtained with lowest average particle size of 84.05. This formula was studied for compatibility by FTIR and DSC, surface morphology by FESEM and crystalline state by XRPD. Then domperidone nanoparticles were formulated into a simple capsule dosage form in order to study of the in vitro release of drug from nanoparticles in comparison raw drug and mixture of polymer:drug ratios of 2:1. The release of domperidone from best formula was highly improved with a significant (p? 0.05) increase.

Columnar crystaldendriteequiaxial dendritescolumnar crystalNanosized powder was synthesized by direct-reactive precipitation process using a stoichiometrical mixture of TiCl4, BaCl2 as the reactants while NaOH as precipitant. Under the ratio of Ba to Ti is 1.02, PH=13, three reaction temperature of 70°C, 80°C and 90°C were conducted respectively. Morphology and phase structure of powder were investigated, and the influence of reaction temperature on powder morphology was discussed. The result indicates that synthesized powder is single cubic BaTiO3 and contains no impurities. BaTiO3 powders generally show spherical, and average particle size decreases with increasing reaction temperature. When reaction temperature is 80°C, BaTiO3 powder has best uniformity and dispersivity with the diameter of 80-100nm. The influence of reaction temperature on powder particle size can be attributed to the corporate contribution of nucleation and growth rate. Polyglycol as surface active agent has a significant effect in restraining agglomeration.

In this paper, we report results on the fabrication and magnetic properties of spinel ferrite Mn1-xZnxFe2O4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.8) nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were synthesized by a co-precipitation method. The effects of substituting Zn for Mn on the magnetic properties and particles size were focused. It was found that the phase-formation temperature is 90OC and the average particle size decreases from 40 nm to 10 nm when increased Zn concentration from zero to 0.8. The Curie temperature TC strongly decreases from 585 K (x = 0) to 320 K (x = 0.8) concomitantly with a decrease of the saturation magnetization MS. With a TC of 320 K and MS of 17 emu/g, the x=0.8 sample could be a promising candidate for some biomedical applications.
