The emulsion combining sol-gel method was used to prepare spherical bioactive glass in the present work. This method involves a two-stage synthesis process: the pre-hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) in an aqueous acidic solution using templates, and afterward the fabrication of silica spheres by pH induced rapid gelation in a W/O emulsion. Through controlling the two stages separately, the particle size and morphology of silica spheres can be adjusted. These results indicated that emulsion method could supply a good way to prepare glass microspheres.

Bioactive glasses are materials that have been used for the repair and reconstruction of diseased bone tissues, as they exhibit direct bonding with human bone tissues. However, bioactive glasses have low mechanical properties compared to cortical and cancellous bone. On the other hand, composite materials of biodegradable polymers with inorganic bioactive glasses are of particular interest to engineered scaffolds because they often show an excellent balance between strength and toughness and usually improved characteristics compared to their individual components. Composite bioactive glass-polyvinyl alcohol foams for use as scaffolds in tissue engineering were previously developed using the sol-gel route. The goal of this work was the synthesis of composite foams modified with higher amounts of PVA. Samples were characterized by morphological and chemical analysis. The mechanical behavior of the obtained materials was also investigated. The degree of hydrolysis of PVA, concentration of PVA solution and different PVA-bioactive glass composition ratios affect the synthesis procedure. Foams with up to 80 wt% polymer content were obtained. The hybrid scaffolds obtained exhibited macroporous structure with pore size varying from 50 to 600 µm and improved mechanical properties.

The properties of YSZ-Ni-Cr cermet fabricated by Sol-Gel Method(YSZ-Ni-Cr powder was synthesized by coprecipitation method at 850°C for 2 h and was processed into YSZ-Ni-Cr cermet by hot-press sintering at 1350°C for 1 h)was explored. The identification of phases was carried out using a X-ray diffractometer (XRD). The particle size and morphology was determined by electron microscopys(SEM/TEM) The conductivity had a tendency to decrease with increasing temperature. This behavior can be accounted for that there are two conduction paths through the cermet, an electronic path through the (Ni,Cr) metal phase and an ionic path through the ZrO2-Y2O3 phase.

An important, rather novel procedure for the synthesis of submicron crystalline multicomponent oxide ceramic powders has been studied. The synthesis of CuFe2O4 powder, a ferrite material, has been used as a model system for understanding the synthesis process. The effect of the fuel content, powder packing, and surface heat loss has been investigated in terms of the maximum reaction temperature and reaction period, phase formation, and particle size and morphology. It has been shown that the maximum temperature and reaction period can be tailored to produce different phases. The submicron features of the synthesized powders are indicated by the large surface area values obtained from BET measurement.

ABSTRACTA simple organic solvent based sol-gel method for synthesis of carbon-coated LiFePO4 is developed. Phase pure LiFePO4 with uniform size of 200–300 nm and no agglomeration is obtained, with 1.8 wt % surface carbon formed in-situ. Such a material gives specific discharge capacities of 150 mAh/g and 145 mAh/g at C/5 and 2C at room temperature, respectively, with desirable cycling stability. The dependence of particle size and morphology on precursor concentrations is opposite to conventional solution based methods. Other LiMPO4 (M = Mn, Co, Ni, etc) with favorable physical characteristics can be synthesized the same way.

Calcium carbonate(CaCO3) was synthesized from aqueous CaCl2 solution, using the homogeneous precipitation technique, which uses the hydrolysis of urea. The effects of reaction conditions on the morphology of CaCO3 were examined at 50-90°C. Particle size of CaCO3 decreases, as the concentrations of urea and [Ca2+] are increased. Calcite is produced more, as the concentration of [Ca2+] is increased. Method to stir the reaction solution affects significantly the particle size and morphology of CaCO3. Uniform needle-like aragonite particles were obtained, when left at 90°C for 4hours without stirring.
