The ultra-light calcium silicate material was reinforced with the method of xonotlite whisker in-situ growth via hydrothermal synthesis. Effects of different hydrothermal temperatures and reaction times on the microstructure and physical properties of the reinforcement were studied in this paper. The results indicated that the hydrothermal temperatures and times posed great impacts on microstructure of the reinforcement. The increase of hydrothermal temperature and time was beneficial to the growth of xonotlite crystal. The effect of buffer and transfer action of the xonotlite whiskers was the key to reinforcing the ultra-light calcium silicate material.

The ultra-light calcium silicate material was reinforced with the method of xonotlite whisker in-situ growth via hydrothermal synthesis. Effects of different ratios of silica sources on microstructure and mechanical properties of the reinforcement were studied in this paper. The results indicated that the ratios of silica sources posed great impacts on microstructure and mechanical properties of the reinforcement. The reinforcement with density of 118 Kg•m-3, flexural strength of 0.42 MPa and compressive strength of 0.66 MPa was successfully prepared under the condition of K2SiO3:H2SiO3 (mol) =2:1.

Under hydrothermal conditions, two copper phosphonates, [Cu2(H2O)2(H2L)(bpy)2(H3L)2]·2H2O (1) and [Cu2(H2O)2(H2L)2(phen)2]·6H2O (2) (H4L = p-xylylenediphosphonic acid, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), have been synthesized using diethyl p-xylylenediphosphonate (dixdp), in which p-xylylenediphosphonic acid (H4L) was generated via in situ hydrolysis. Complexe 1 forms a zero-dimensional (0D) bimetallic rings, while complex 2 features a 0D structure containing two kinds of partially deprotonated H3L-and H2L2-ligand.

The walnut-like α-Ni (OH)2 architectures have been successfully synthesized through a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method using urea as a hydrolysis-controlling agent and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a surfactant. The NiO architectures with similar morphology were obtained by a simple thermal decomposition process of the precursor α-Ni (OH)2. The as-obtained products were well characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, and FTIR. The experimental results shown that walnut-like α-Ni (OH)2 architectures with a diameter of 2-6 μm. The formation process of Ni (OH)2 architectures was observed by SEM via different hydrothermal reaction times.

Abiotic CO2 reduction on transition metal minerals has been proposed to account for the synthesis of organic compounds in alkaline hydrothermal systems, but this reaction lacks experimental support, as only short-chain hydrocarbons (<C5) have been synthesized in artificial simulation. This presents a question: What particular hydrothermal conditions favor long-chain hydrocarbon synthesis? Here, we demonstrate the hydrothermal bicarbonate reduction at ∼300 °C and 30 MPa into long-chain hydrocarbons using iron (Fe) and cobalt (Co) metals as catalysts. We found the Co0 promoter responsible for synthesizing long-chain hydrocarbons to be extraordinarily stable when coupled with Fe−OH formation. Under these hydrothermal conditions, the traditional water-induced deactivation of Co is inhibited by bicarbonate-assisted CoOx reduction, leading to honeycomb-native Co nanosheets generated in situ as a new motif. The Fe−OH formation, confirmed by operando infrared spectroscopy, enhances CO adsorption on Co, thereby favoring further reduction to long-chain hydrocarbons (up to C24). These results not only advance theories for an abiogenic origin for some petroleum accumulations and the hydrothermal hypothesis of the emergence of life but also introduce an approach for synthesizing long-chain hydrocarbons by nonnoble metal catalysts for artificial CO2 utilization.

Flowerlike manganese oxide microspheres and cryptomelane-type manganese oxide nanobelts were selectively synthesized by a simple decomposition of KMnO4 under mild hydrothermal conditions without using template or cross-linking reagents. The effect of varying the hydrothermal times and temperatures on the nanostructure, morphology, compositional, and electrochemical properties of the obtained manganese oxides was investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies showed that the flowerlike manganese oxide microspheres could be obtained at relatively low hydrothermal temperatures, while high hydrothermal temperatures were favorable for the formation of cryptomelane-type manganese oxide nanobelts. A morphology and crystalline evolution of the nanostructures was observed as the hydrothermal temperature was increased from 180 to 240 °C. On the basis of changing the temperatures and hydrothermal reaction times, the formation mechanism of cryptomelane-type manganese oxide nanobelts is discussed. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to evaluate the electrochemical properties of the obtained manganese oxide nanostructures, and the results show that the electrochemical properties depend on their shape and crystalline structure. This easily controllable, template-free, and environmentally friendly method has the potential for being used in syntheses of manganese oxide nanomaterials with uniform morphologies and crystal structures.
