Nanospheres of a new coordination polymer {[Cd2(µ-HL)(µ-L)(NO3)3(H2O)]·H2O}n (1) were easily prepared by a sonochemical method from cadmium(II) nitrate and HL (HL, pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone) in ethanol. Single crystals of 1 were also obtained using a branched tube method. The crystal structure of 1 indicates that the µ-HL/µ-L− blocks act as linkers between the Cd(II) centers, assembling them into 1D tooth-shaped interdigitated chains, which are further interlinked into a complex 3D H-bonded network with a rare hms (3,5-conn) topology. Nanoparticles of 1 were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, and powder X-ray diffraction (XPRD), while their spherical morphology was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Furthermore, in the presence of a surfactant, the thermolysis of sonochemically generated nanoparticles of 1 led to the formation of cadmium oxide nanospheres (cubic CdO) with an average diameter of 10 nm. This study extends the application of sonochemical synthetic methods for the generation of phase pure nanoparticles of coordination polymers and their thermolysis products.

The interaction between the uranyl cation, (UO2)2+, and organic species is of interest due to the potential applications of the resulting compounds with regard to nuclear waste disposal and nuclear fuel reprocessing. The hydrothermal reaction of various uranyl compounds with flexible zwitterionic 1,1′-[1,4-phenylenebis(methylene)]bis(pyridin-1-ium-4-carboxylate) dihydrochloride (Bpmb·2HCl) in deionized water containing drops of H2SO4resulted in the formation of a novel two-dimensional uranyl coordination polymer, namely poly[tetraoxido{μ2-1,1′-[1,4-phenylenebis(methylene)]bis(pyridin-1-ium-4-carboxylate)}di-μ3-sulfato-diuranium(VI)], [(UO2)2(SO4)2(C20H16N2O4)]n, (1). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that this coordination polymer exhibits a layered arrangement and the (UO2)2+centre is coordinated by five equatorial O atoms. The structure was further characterized by FT–IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The polymer shows high thermal stability up to 696 K. Furthermore, the photoluminescence properties of (1) has also been studied, showing it to exhibit a typical uranyl fluorescence.

This study aims to prepare iron sand, determine the type of iron oxide, and determine the effect of washing iron sand with sonochemical methods. Iron sand samples were obtained from Jomblom Beach, Kendal Regency. Iron sand was separated using an external magnet to obtain magnetic material. The magnetic material obtained was washed using distilled water manually stirred and using the sonochemical method. The material was dried at 80 °C. Material characterization was carried out using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) to determine the elements contained in iron sand, Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectrophotometer to identify functional groups in iron sand, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) to find out the crystal size and crystallinity of iron sand, and the Transmission Electron microscope (TEM) to determine the morphology of iron sand. The characterization results showed that the iron sand of Jomblom Beach contained Fe (72.28%), Ti (7.89%), Al (7.00%), and Si (7.60%). The iron oxide contained in the Jomblom Beach iron sand was dominated by magnetite (Fe3O4). Washing iron sand magnetic material using the sonochemical method increased the composition of the element Fe, increased the crystallinity of the magnetic material, prevented aggregation, and reduced the crystal size of the magnetic material. Magnetic material which was washed using the sonochemical method produced 79.47% Fe element, crystallinity 74.94%, and crystal size 52.78 nm.

Magnetite nanopowder is a nanostructured magnetic material which is of great importance due to its electric and magnetic properties at room temperature. There are quite enough methods to produce magnetite. In the present work, four samples of magnetite powder were produced, the first three with the alkaline precipitation method from aqueous solution of mixed Fe (II)/Fe (III) salts, without any surfactants and the last one with the micro emulsion method. The prepared powders have been characterized using transmission electron microscopy, Raman and FT-IR spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction in order the structure and the morphology of magnetite to be examined. The produced magnetite powders have a size range of 10-12±2nm and the chemical composition of magnetite.

This study demonstrated the hydrothermal synthesis of bimetallic nickel-cobalt tungstate nanostructures, Ni-CoWO4 (NCW-NPs), and their phase structure, morphology, porosity, and optical properties were examined using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy- energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), high resolution Transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) and Raman instruments. It was found that as-calcined NCW-NPs have a monoclinic phase with crystal size ~50–60 nm and is mesoporous. It possessed smooth, spherical, and cubic shape microstructures with defined fringe distance (~0.342 nm). The photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) and rose bengal (RB) dye in the presence of NCW-NPs was evaluated, and about 49.85% of MB in 150 min and 92.28% of RB in 90 min degraded under visible light. In addition, based on the scavenger’s study, the mechanism for photocatalytic reactions is proposed.

The development of straightforward reproducible methods for the preparation of new photoluminescent coordination polymers (CPs) is an important goal in luminescence and chemical sensing fields. Isophthalic acid derivatives have been reported for a wide range of applications, and in addition to their relatively low cost, have encouraged its use in the preparation of novel lanthanide-based coordination polymers (LnCPs). Considering that the photoluminescent properties of these CPs are highly dependent on the existence of water molecules in the crystal structure, our research efforts are now focused on the preparation of CP with the lowest water content possible, while considering a green chemistry approach. One- and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) LnCPs were prepared from 5-aminoisophthalic acid and Sm3+/Tb3+ using hydrothermal and/or microwave-assisted synthesis. The unprecedented LnCPs were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCRXD), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and their photoluminescence (PL) properties were studied in the solid state, at room temperature, using the CPs as powders and encapsulated in poly(methyl methacrylate (PMMA) films, envisaging the potential preparation of devices for sensing. The materials revealed interesting PL properties that depend on the dimensionality, metal ion, co-ligand used and water content.
