Chemical Precipitation Method for the Synthesis of Nb2O5 Modified Bulk Nickel Catalysts with High Specific Surface Area

Mesoporous silicon dioxide (SiO2) powders with different specific surface areas were prepared by the chemical precipitation method from sodium metasilicate, hydrochloric acid, and cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The obtained samples were characterized by the BET method — differential scanning calorimetry/thermogravimetry (DSC/TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The effects of some factors, such as pH, concentration of sodium metasilicate, concentration of hydrochloric acid solution, and reaction temperature, on the specific surface area were investigated. Mesoporous SiO2 with a BET-specific surface area of 1041.382/g and an average pore size of 5.78nm was made under the following conditions: pH, 8; concentration of sodium metasilicate, 0.4mol/L; concentration of hydrochloric acid, 1.0mol/L; reaction temperature, 30°C.

Co Precipitation

Cerium oxide and tin oxide nanocomposites (CeO2-SnO2 NCs) were successfully synthesized via a simple co-precipitation method. The structure and properties of the synthesized materials were characterized using several X-ray and electron-based techniques including XRD, FE-SEM, TEM, EDS and BET to unravel the structure, morphology, element composition and specific surface area. The XRD and BET results showed that the NCs have the characteristic crystalline structures of SnO2 and CeO2-SnO2 NCs, and high specific surface area (66.45 and 86.29 m2/g), respectively. Amorphous phase of CeO2 and SnO2 were not found in XRD patterns. EDS analysis confirms the absence of all element composition and the FE-SEM and TEM analysis observed as particles having the clear spherical morphologies with the average particle size of of SnO2 and CeO2-SnO2 NCs was about 13 and 10 nm, respectively.

One Step

Photocatalytic degradation of Oxytetracycline (OTC) in aqueous solution was performed using pure ZnO and ZnO/Bent composites. Both catalysts were synthesized trough a simple one-step chemical precipitation method. The prepared samples were characterized using SEM-EDAX and XRD analysis. Due to the immobilization of ZnO nanospheres upon bentonite surface, 25.67 m2 g-1 of specific surface area was obtained for the ZnO/Bent which lower than the specific surface area of the raw bentonite (112.25 m2 g-1). ZnO/Bent catalyst showed the best photocatalytic performance than ZnO for OTC degradation under UV light.

Hierarchical Porous

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) present excellent mechanical properties. However, the exploitation of chemical properties of HEAs is far less than that of mechanical properties, which is mainly limited by the low specific surface area of HEAs synthesized by traditional methods. Thus, it is vital to develop new routes to fabricate HEAs with novel three-dimensional structures and a high specific surface area. Herein, we develop a facile approach to fabricate nanoporous noble metal quasi-HEA microspheres by melt-spinning and dealloying. The as-obtained nanoporous Cu30Au23Pt22Pd25 quasi-HEA microspheres present a hierarchical porous structure with a high specific surface area of 69.5 m2/g and a multiphase approximatively componential solid solution characteristic with a broad single-group face-centered cubic XRD pattern, which is different from the traditional single-phase or two-phase solid solution HEAs. To differentiate, these are named quasi-HEAs. The synthetic strategy proposed in this paper opens the door for the synthesis of porous quasi-HEAs related materials, and is expected to promote further applications of quasi-HEAs in various chemical fields.
