Nanocrystalline ceria powder was prepared through homogeneous precipitation method, orthogonal experiment was designed to figure out the most important factor that influence the particle size of the resultant and the optimum condition. X-ray diffraction revealed that the as-prepared nanoscale ceria powder had cubic fluorite structure, TEM image showed that the ceria powder was weakly agglomerated with a particle size of about 10 nm.

Hexagonal prismatic hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, HAP) was successfully prepared by a homogeneous precipitation method. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectrum, and scanning electron microscope. The growth process of the hexagonal prism was surveyed in detail based on the effects of the reaction time on the phase composition and the crystal morphology.

TiO2 nanocrystalline powder was synthesized by homogeneous precipitation method using urea, and its characteristics were investigated through comparison with the powder prepared by conventional precipitation using ammonia. The homogeneously precipitated powder was anatase-type TiO2 with a particle size of 4–5 nm and a uniform spherical particle shape. The fact that the transformation from anatase to rutile was prohibited at elevated temperatures in the homogeneously precipitated powder can be useful to prepare anatase-type TiO2 thin films by calcination at high temperatures. With increasing heat-treatment temperature, the particle size of the homogeneously precipitated powder was smaller than that of the conventionally precipitated powder, and the particle shape was more uniform. The homogeneously precipitated powder showed good photocatalytic activity for Ag ion photoadsorption because the powder had both good crystallinity and a large specific surface area of 280 m2/g.

The porous basic magnesium carbonate (Mg5(CO3)4(OH)2.4H2O) crystal crystallographic materials with flower-like structure were prepared successfully by homogeneous precipitation method. Magnesium chloride hexahydrate (MgCl2.6H2O) and urea (CO(NH2)2) wereused as reaction materials. The experimental equipment was held at 100°C for 8 h. Phase and morphology of the product were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The formation mechanism of the product was investigated. It was found that the CO2 bubbles acted as porous templates. The growth and gathering of the CO2 bubbles induced the growth of the MgCO3.3H2O columnar crystals. Then the dissolution of the MgCO3.3H2O and the deposition of Mg5(CO3)4(OH)2.4H2O happened simultaneously. Finally the disappearance of MgCO3.3H2O brought about the formation of the porous structure.

AbstractBaCO3 nanoparticles with different morphologies including needle-like, rod-like, bird's nest-like and flower-like have been successfully synthesized by the microwave homogeneous precipitation method using BaCl2·2H2O, NaOH and (NH2)2CO as raw materials with the help of different guide reagents, such as citric acid (CA), sodium triphosphate (STPP) and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA). Their phases and morphologies were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The characterization results show that different guide reagents have little effect on the phase structure and composition of products while they play significant roles in determining the morphology of products. All the synthesized BaCO3 nanoparticles have typical orthorhombic structures that are well-crystallized.

α- Fe 2 O 3@ATO (antimony doped tin oxide) nanocomposite particles with core–shell structure were prepared by homogeneous precipitation method using monodispersed α- Fe 2 O 3 (hematite) nanoparticles as cores, SnCl 4 · 5 H 2 O and SbCl 3 as the precursor of the shell. The morphology and structure of the nanocomposite particles were studied with transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction, respectively. The electricity properties of the nanocomposite were also investigated in terms of coating amount, molar ratio of element Sb to Sn , and heat treatment conditions. The results showed that the conditions of ATO/α- Fe 2 O 3 (weight ratio) = 70%, n( Sb )/n( Sn ) = 10%, calcined at 700°C for 1 h were optimal for the conductivity of the nanocomposite.

Y2O3:Tb3+ nanoballs were synthesized via the urea homogeneous precipitation method (UPM). The resulting Y2O3:Tb3+ phosphors were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra, and general photoluminescence spectra. The particle sizes estimated using X-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microcopy were about 50–200 nm. The emission intensity of the Y2O3:Tb3+ was low when the doping concentrations of Tb3+ were higher. The optimum concentration of Tb3+ for synthesis of Y2O3:Tb3+ nanocrystals is 1%.

In the system of Ce(NO3)3·6H2O and urea solution during homogeneous precipitation method, hydrothermal homogeneous precipitation coupling method and homogeneous precipitation method with additive, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to study and characterize the product structures and morphologies. The outer electron configurations and the energy conservation theory were used to analyze the reasons for stability of products and valence state change of cerium ions. The results showed that synthesis technics and additives had a great effect on the cerium ion compound valence. The products were orthorhombic Ce2O(CO3)2·H2O with Valence Ш and orthorhombic CeO(CO3)2·H2O with valence Ⅵ by using homogeneous precipitation method and hydrothermal homogeneous precipitation coupling method, respectively. If an additive (triethanolamine or triethylamine) was added into the homogeneous precipitation system, the products changed into a mixture of orthorhombic CeO(CO3)2·H2O with Valence Ⅵ and cubic CeO2 with valence Ⅳ. It showed that triethanolamine or triethylamine had strong oxidizing properties and played a catalyst role in the reaction.
