La1-xSrxMnO3 (LSMO) (x=0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4)powders were synthesized by high temperature solid phase method, and the crystal structure and morphology were characterized by XRD and SEM. Results indicated that the pure perovskite type LSMO could be obtained after sintered at the temperature of 1000°C for 6h. The average particle size of the powders decreases with the increasing concentration of Strontium.

Ag nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method under the polyol system combined with traces of sodium chloride, Silver nitrate(AgNO3) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) acted as the silver source and dispersant respectively. The samples by this process were characterized via X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) adsorption equation, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and the corresponding selected area electron diffraction (SAED) to determine the chemical composition, particle size, crystal structure and morphology. The experiment results indicate that the crystal structure of the samples is face centered cubic (FCC) structure as same as the bulk materials, The specific surface area is 24 m2/g, the particle size distribution ranging from10 to 50 nm, with an average particle size about 26 nm obtained by TEM and confirmed by XRD and BET results.

In order to study the influence on the mechanical properties caused by microstructure evolution of metal powder in extreme environment, 3D real-time observation of the microstructure evolution of Al-Ti mixed powder in high temperature and microwave compound fields was realized by using synchrotron radiation computerized topography (SR-CT) technique; the spatial resolution was enhanced to 0.37 μm/pixel through the designed equipment and the introduction of excellent reconstruction method for the first time. The process of microstructure evolution during sintering was clearly distinguished from 2D and 3D reconstructed images. Typical sintering parameters such as sintering neck size, porosity, and particle size of the sample were presented for quantitative analysis of the influence on the mechanical properties and the sintering kinetics during microwave sintering. The neck size-time curve was obtained and the neck growth exponent was 7.3, which indicated that surface diffusion was the main diffusion mechanism; the reason was the eddy current loss induced by the external microwave fields providing an additional driving force for mass diffusion on the particle surface. From the reconstructed images and the curve of porosity and average particle size versus temperature, it was believed that the presence of liquid phase aluminum accelerated the densification and particle growth.

LiMnPO4cathode material for lithium ion batteries was synthesized by high temperature solid-phase method using MnCO3, Li2CO3, NH4H2PO4as raw materials. The structure of samples was identified by XRD analysis and the particle surface morphology was examined by SEM. The results of XRD showed that the LiMnPO4sample sintered at 700°C for 20h had single ordered olivine structure. The SEM pattern showed that spherical particles distributed uniformly. Respectively, it figured out that the initial charge and discharge capacities of the samples at 0.05C rate were 133.9 and 66.4mAh•g-1.

Polymerized polypeptide nanomicelles have attracted much attention as novel drug carriers because of their good biocompatibility and degradability. To prepare doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded nanomicelles, an amphiphilic peptide, FFHFFH-KKGRGD (P12), was synthesized by solid-phase synthesis, and the physicochemical and drug-release properties, as well as the cytotoxicity of the nanomicelles, were evaluated in vitro. The P12-DOX polymer micelles were prepared by dialysis. The morphology and particle size were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the polymer was determined by the probe method, and the drug-release characteristics of the micelles were studied by dynamic dialysis. The cytotoxicity and uptake of the P12-DOX micelles were evaluated against mouse breast cancer cells (4T1) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells. The peptide polymer micelles containing DOX were uniformly sized and had a spherical core–shell structure with an average particle size of 128.6 nm. The CMC of the polymer was low (0.0357 mg/mL). The in vitro release of DOX from the micelles is slow and is consistent with first-order kinetics. The copolymer micelles of the P12 polypeptide and DOX can be used as nanoscale spherical carriers of hydrophobic drugs and have broad applicability.

Native corn starch (NS) was activated by treatment with NaOH /Urea /H2O solution at low temperature to improve its chemical reactivity. Effects of the activation on the molecular level structure and morphology of the corn starch were investigated by mean of SEM. It was found that the average particle size of activated corn starch (AS) decreased to nanometer level, smaller than those of NS. The cold water solubility (CWS) has been increased from 0.45% to 96.4%. Effects of the activation on reactivity of the corn starches were investigated by analyzing the influences of the activation on degrees of substitutions (DS) of the esterifications. The DS of AS was higher than that of NS, from 0 to 0.1578, which indicated that NaOH/urea activation enhanced the chemical reaction activity of corn starch.

AbstractPolypyrrole (PPy) dispersion was prepared using FeCl3·6H2O as oxidant in the presence of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) as surfactant. The formation of the micelles and the electrostatic interaction between PPy and SDBS were considered the driving forces for the formation and stability of the dispersion. UV/Vis/NIR, FTIR spectra and SEM images were studied to confirm the structure and morphology of the PPy dispersion, respectively. Polymerization of pyrrole under different preparation conditions including the concentration of the surfactant, the pyrrole monomer and the oxidant and also the addition of acid were carried out in order to investigate their effects on the stability and average particle size of the dispersions. The conductivity of the resulting PPy particles was measured and a comparison between the PPy and polyaniline dispersion formed with SDBS as surfactant was also given.

In this work, the spinel LiMn2O4 cathode material was prepared by high-temperature solid-phase method and further optimized by co-modification strategy based on the Mg-doping and octahedral morphology. The octahedral LiMn1.95Mg0.05O4 sample belongs to the spinel cubic structure with the space group of Fd3m, and no other impurities are presented in the XRD patterns. The octahedral LiMn1.95Mg0.05O4 particles show narrow size distribution with regular morphology. When used as cathode material, the obtained LiMn1.95Mg0.05O4 octahedra shows excellent electrochemical properties. This material can exhibit high capacity retention of 96.8% with 100th discharge capacity of 111.6 mAh g−1 at 1.0 C. Moreover, the rate performance and high-temperature cycling stability of LiMn2O4 are effectively improved by the co-modification strategy based on Mg-doping and octahedral morphology. These results are mostly given to the fact that the addition of magnesium ions can suppress the Jahn–Teller effect and the octahedral morphology contributes to the Mn dissolution, which can improve the structural stability of LiMn2O4.

The paper presents the experimental results of possibility obtaining ultra-high temperature composite Ta4ZrC5 using a single-stage method. The method is based on the use of exothermic synthesis of refractory compounds by electro-thermal explosion (ETE) and their consolidation under conditions of quasi-isostatic compression. The effect of mechanical activation of the reaction mixture of tantalum, zirconium and carbon powders on the formation of the phase composition of the ceramic composite Ta4ZrC5 was studied. The conditions for obtaining a single-phase ultra-high temperature composites had were determined. The composites were prepared with the average particle size of 1-2 µm and a residual porosity of 8-10%.
