In this Letter, we reported the facile synthesis of manganese (III) oxide (Mn2O3) nanowires via the facile hydrothermal treatment in the presence of ammonia, which were prepared simply by hydrothermal treatment of commercial bulky Mn2O3crystals at 160oC for 24 h. The obtained Mn2O3products consist a large quantity of nanwires with the diameters of 30-90 nm, and lengths ranging from 1 to 10 μm. Such high quality nanowires with high aspect ratio have a variety of promising applications. The simplicity of hydrothermal process, cheapness, and availability of raw materials, without the need of catalyst or template, are advantages favoring industrial manufacturing in scaled-up process by the novel method. X-ray and transmission electron microscopy, electron diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy have been employed to characterize these materials. In addition, the possible growth mechanism of the Mn2O3nanowires was also proposed. The growth of Mn2O3nanowires occurredviaa dissolution-recrystallization process.

Mno2 Nanoparticles

A series of MnO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by two-step reaction in the ethanol-water system with urea as reducing agent. During the novel routine, P123 polymer plays a crucial role in controlling the morphology. Then, characterization and systematic investigations of the samples by transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy confirmed that the morphology of MnO2 nanoparticles changed as the raw materials ratio changed. Finally, X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were employed to confirm the crystal structure and the exact components. These results indicated the particles showed a rod-like shape without P123 and changed into sheet-like shape after the addition of P123. Therefore, this idea could be developed for the controllable synthesis of other metal oxide-based nanomaterials.

The crystalline phase and morphology of the products formed during the synthesis of yttrium oxide via the hydrothermal treatment yttrium nitrate were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Products with high OH/NO3ratios are formed with the increasing of hydrothermal treatment. The crystalline phases are evolved from Y2(OH)5.14(NO3)0.86•H2O toY4O(OH)9(NO3) and finally Y(OH)3. The hydrothermal reaction conditions play an important role in the synthesis of the microstructures. Results show the particle size and final morphology of samples could be controlled by reaction temperature, reaction time, and OH-concentration. Sheets, hexagonal and needle-like Y2O3powders are obtained with the hydrothermal treatment of yittrium nitrate at 180 oC to 200oC for 2-8 hours at pH 9-13.

In this study CuO nanoparticles were prepared via direct thermal decomposition method using basic copper sulphates as wet chemically synthesized precursor which was calcined in air at 750?C for 2h. Samples were characterized by thermogravimetric (TG-DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), infrared spectrum (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD, EDS, and IR results indicated that the synthesized CuO particles were pure. The SEM and TEM results showed that the CuO nanoparticles were of approximate spherical shape, and 170?5 nm in size. Using this method, Cuo nanoparticles could be produced without using organic solvent, expensive raw materials, and complicated equipment.

Abstract The novel submicro-spheres SiO2@LaPO4:Eu@SiO2 with core-shell-shell structures were prepared by connecting the SiO2 submicro-spheres and the rare earth ions through an organosilane HOOCC6H4N(CONH(CH2)3Si(OCH2CH3)3 (MABA-Si). The as-prepared products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and infrared spectroscopy (IR). It is found that the intermediate shell of the submicro-spheres was composed by LaPO4:Eu nanoparticles with the size of about 4, 5–7, or 15–34 nm. A possible formation mechanism for the SiO2@LaPO4:Eu@SiO2 submicro-spheres has been proposed. The dependence of the photoluminescence intensity on the size of the LaPO4:Eu nanoparticles has been investigated. The intensity ratios of electrical dipole transition 5D0 → 7F2 to magnetic dipole transition 5D0 → 7F1 of Eu3+ ions were increased with decreasing the size of LaPO4:Eu nanoparticles. According to the Judd-Ofelt (J-O) theory, when the size of LaPO4:Eu nanoparticles was about 4, 5–7 and 15–34 nm, the calculated J-O parameter Ω2 (optical transition intensity parameter) was 2.30 × 10−20, 1.80 × 10−20 and 1.20 × 10−20, respectively. The increase of Ω2 indicates that the symmetry of Eu3+ in the LaPO4 lattice was gradually reduced. The photoluminescence intensity of the SiO2@LaPO4:Eu@SiO2 submicro-spheres was unquenched in aqueous solution even after 15 days.

Magnesium Oxysulfate

A low-cost raw material, bittern obtained from the production process of sea salt, was used to prepare magnesium oxysulfate hydrate (MgSO4·5Mg (OH)2·2H2O, abbreviated as 152MOS) whiskers via hydrothermal synthesis with ammonia and magnesium sulfate as the other starting raw materials. The bittern was firstly filtered and then used directly without de-coloring. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were employed to investigate the composition and morphology of the products. It was found that the 152MOS whiskers synthesized from bittern at 190°C for 3 hours exhibited fanlike morphology. The formation of the fanlike whiskers was inhibited and most of the whiskers presented as single fibers when ethanol was used as crystal control agent in the hydrothermal process. From the two-dimensional steps observed at tips of the whiskers, a possible growth mechanism was speculated that it was the extension of dislocations that made the growth of the whiskers.

BaF2 nanorods were synthesized by hydrothermal microemulsion method using sodium fluoride (NaF) and barium chloride (BaCl2) as the raw materials. The as-prepared products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that the products were composed of BaF2 nanorods with diameters of 18-62 nm and lengths up to 1μm. A directed aggregation growth process mediated by the microemulsion droplet building blocks is proposed for the formation of BaF2 nanorods. Further work is in progress to evaluate the possibility of synthesizing other fluoride 1D nanostructures using a similar method.

MoS2 nanoparticles with fullerene-like (IF-MoS2) structure were successfully obtained at heating temperature higher than 840 °C by chemical vapor deposition method in a three-tube furnace using MoO3 and S (sulfur) powders as raw materials. The synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersion X-ray spectrometerrespectively. IF-MoS2 nanoparticles can be obtained only in the narrow temperature range of 840 °C-870 °C, and the diameter of IF-MoS2 nanoparticles increases with temperature. A gradual formation mechanism of IF-MoS2 nanoparticles was discussed in detail.

A novel nanomaterial composed of copper and carbon nanofibers (CuCNFs) decorated with Ag-doped TiO2 (Ag–TiO[Formula: see text] nanoparticles was prepared through electrospinning, carbonization and solvothermal treatment. The composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The obtained composites were mixed with laccase and Nafion to construct novel hydroquinone biosensor. The electrochemical behavior of the novel biosensor was studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry. The results demonstrated that the biosensor possessed a wide detection linear range (1.20–176.50[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M), a good selectivity, repeatability, reproducibility and storage stability. This work provides a new material to design more efficient laccase (Lac) based biosensor for hydroquinone detection.
