A study of liquid mixing route to synthesize high purity Mg0.8Zn0.2TiO3 nanopowder, a candidate dielectric ceramics, has been successfully performed. Formation of the phases on the dried powder was studied using TG/DTA, XRD and FT-IR data. Rietveld analysis on the collected XRD patterns confirmed the formation of solid solution in the system. Such solid solution can be obtained from the powder calcined at 500 °C, but calcination at 550 °C gave rise to the most optimum molar purity up to 98.5% without intermediate phases. The role of Zn ions on the formation of solid solution was also discussed. Homogeneity of particle size distribution and nano-crystallinity of the system was verified from the particle size analyzer data, TEM image and the Rietveld analysis output.

In the general framework of the development of materials with tunable photoluminescence, a series of cerium samarium tungstates Ce(2-x)Smx(WO4)3 with x≤0.3 was synthesized by a coprecipitation method followed by thermal treatment at 1000 °C. The polycrystalline compounds were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and photoluminescence experiments. In the present work, the objective would be to determine the role of PL emitting centers in the variations of PL intensities. Firstly, Rietveld analysis showed a decrease of cell parameters and confirmed that a solid solution was obtained. Diffraction profile analyses showed that structural distortions increasing with composition x were observed: they were ascribed to difference in cation sizes of Ce3+ and Sm3+, and to defects generated during crystal growth. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra were obtained under X-Ray (45 kV-35 mA) and UV (364.5 nm) excitations. Two PL emissions of Ce3+ were observed only under UV excitation. Four PL emissions of Sm3+ were observed under UV and X-ray excitations, and their intensities decreased with increasing composition x. Two additional transitions were observed under UV and X-ray excitations: they were attributed to oxygen vacancy defects. In the range 800 to 1000 nm, an increasing IR emission is observed: it was ascribed to emissions due to other oxygen vacancies. The main results are reported in Table 1. The chromaticity diagram (see Figure 1) showed that the colors associated with PL responses vary with Sm composition and excitation energies. This offers the opportunity to develop materials with tunable PL. To better understand this complex behavior, now, we plan to study the solid solution in the composition range x>0.3.

This study suggested the optimum conditions for the stable dispersion of cellulose microparticles in PAN spinning dope, which was prepared for spinning the fiber. Many research studies have investigated methods for preparing a variety of carbon fiber precursors in an attempt to control their characteristics according to the applications. In order to prepare PAN fiber that contains fine cellulose particles, it is important to create a uniformly dispersed spinning dope. Minimization of the cellulose particle size was subjected to heat treatment at various temperatures in order to reduce the cohesive force from the hydrogen bonds between the cellulose molecules. Carbonized cellulose microparticles were obtained for efficient dispersion using the physical method and the sedimentation method. Several instrumental analyses were conducted to study the characteristics of the particles and solutions with SEM, FT-IR, XRD, and a particle size analyzer. From the results, the dispersion of the PAN spinning dope with a chemical treatment was superior to the milling method followed by heat treatment. In this study, heat-treating cellulose microparticles at 400°C was found to be the most effective method.

The objective of this research work was to evaluate the hydrothermal synthesis of silicalite with high crystallinity within a small particle size. The current study focused on investigating the effects of silica sources such as rice husk ash (RHA) and silica gel (SG), crystallization time, and ratios of NaOH/SiO2, H2O/NaOH, and SiO2/TPABr. The crystallinity, particle size, and morphology were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, particle size analyser, and SEM. The conclusion of the main findings indicated that the XRD patterns of these samples clearly showed a pure phase of MFI structure corresponding to FT-IR spectra with vibration mode at 550 and 1223 cm−1. The highest crystallinity was obtained at reaction time only 6 hours with the mole ratios of NaOH/SiO2, H2O/NaOH and SiO2/TPABr as 0.24, 155, and 30, respectively. When SG was used as a silica source, it was found that the particle size was smaller than that from RHA. The morphologies of all silicalite samples were coffin and cubic-like shape.
