Palladium nanoparticles (ca. 4.8 nm) were synthesized in presence of 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetraflouroborate (BMI.BF4) and 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMI.PF6) and PMI.Si.(OMe)3.Cl functionalized ionic liquids using the sol-gel method. The characteristics of the sol-gel method, ionic liquid on the palladium content was studied, as well as the silica morphology and texture of the support and the hydrogenation activity. The palladium content in the resulting xerogels (ca. 0.22 wt% Pd/SiO2) was shown to be independent of the sol-gel process. The xerogels synthesized in acidic conditions formed materials with larger pore diameters, which in turn might be responsible for the higher catalytic activity in hydrogenation of the alkenes and arenes obtained with the heterogeneous catalyst (Pd/ILs/SiO2).

In this research, nanocrystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles were prepared by a modified alkoxide technique under basic and acidic conditions at room temperatures. A simple method for preparing different morphology of TiO2has been developed. The reaction condition was used to control the crystalline size, phase and morphology of the TiO2nanostructures. In this process by adjusting the Rw(water to precursor ratio) and pH value the hydrolysis and condensation reactions were controlled. This led to the development of a new process to produce TiO2nanorod (for the first time by sol–gel method) at high pH value (basic) while the water content was sufficient whereas at low pH value (acidic) nanosphere TiO2were obtained. The powders were characterized by DTA, XRD, FE-SEM and UV–vis techniques and their physical properties were compared.

Alumina nanoparticles were synthesized from locally available high alumina clay, obtained from Giro in Kabbi State, through acid leaching with sol-gel method. The clay was leached with hydrofluoric acid and the aluminous solution produced was used as precursor to synthesis nanoparticles through sol gel process. The composition and structure of the clay and the particles produced were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction and fluorescence Spectroscopic techniques, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). From the analyses, the clay sample was observed to be high in alumina and predominantly Kaolinitic in nature. During the sol-gel process, effective flocculation was obtained at slightly alkaline pH range (7.6 to 8.0) and a relative moderate temperature of 80oC. The result also shows that the aging time of the gel affected the size of the particles produced during the process, and the particles are mainly nano-alumina.

The traditional method of preparing 0.5 wt.% nano Pd/C catalysts used for pure terephthalic acid(PTA) refining is the precipitate-reduction method, and this paper proposed the sol-gel method, in which the palladium colloid was firstly prepared, and followed by the load process onto the activated carbon. The activity and microstructure of catalysts were investigated by means of SEM, TEM, EDS,XRD and HPLC. It was found that the activity of catalyst with the sol-gel method was much higher than that with precipitate-reduction method. The preparation technology has less effects on the micostructure of Pd/C catalysts, while the palladium particles of catalyst obtained with sol-gel method are much finer and the relatively palladium content is much higher.These two factors contribute to the higher activity of Pd/C catalyst.

Palladium nanoparticles stabilized by poly (N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) can be synthesized by corresponding Pd(acac)2(acac = acetylacetonate) as precursor in methanol at 80°C for 2 h followed by reduction with NaBH4and immobilized onto SiO2prepared by sol-gel process under acidic conditions (HF or HCl). The PVP/Pd molar ratio is set to 6. The effect of the sol-gel catalyst on the silica morphology and texture and on Pd(0) content was investigated. The catalysts prepared (ca.2% Pd(0)/SiO2/HF andca.0,3% Pd(0)/SiO2/HCl) were characterized by TEM, FAAS, and SEM-EDS. Palladium nanoparticles supported in silica with a size 6.6 ± 1.4 nm were obtained. The catalytic activity was tested in hydrogenation of alkenes.

AbstractEpitaxial formation of KNbO3 films on several substrates was examined. The films were prepared by a sol-gel process using potassium ethoxide and niobium pentaethoxide. Hetero-epitaxial KNbO3 films with (100) orientation were successfully obtained both on MgO (100) and SrTiO3 (100) substrates by heat treatments above 700°C, while polycrystalline KNbO3 were formed on Si (111) substrates. Higher temperatures and extended soaking time promoted the grain growth of KNbO3 and KNbO3 films with improved surface morphologies (smoother surfaces) could be obtained by controlling heat treatment parameters.
