18- Smart Nanoparticles was synthesized using sol-gel process. The spherical particles were obtained using appropriate parameters such as solvent. Modification of C18-Smart Nanoparticles was carried out using trichloro and trimethoxy octadecylsilane. The modified particles were designed for extraction and preconcentration of herbicides as illustrated in figure 1. Herbicides molecules were easily recognized by C18- Smart Nanoparticles and the recoveries were varied from 59-82%.

AbstractMedium sized spherical particles (with diameters below 100 μm) of ceramic materials (Al203 and Al203 +8%TiO2) were produced in the following steps: (1) preparation of concentrated hydroxide sols of cations by extraction of anions using Primene JMT, (2) formation of sol emulsion in 2-ethylhexanol-1 containing various amounts of surfactants (EH), (3) gelation of emulsion drops by extraction of water with partially dehydrated EH, (4) non-destructive thermal treatment. Principal properties of the sol depend on the temperature of the extraction process. For preparation of lowanionic sols a two step extraction process, separated by digestion of the aqueous phase at boiling point, was necessary. It was found that the parameters of emulsion formation as well as the properties of the sols significantly influence the particle size distribution. It was concluded that lowering of the sol- EH interracial tension by the surfactant does not influence the process. On the contrary the “anti-clustering” effect of surfactants is essential for preparation of perfect spherical powders. The thermal decomposition of gels to oxides is determinant for densities, specific surface area and carbon content. Medium sized spherical powders are free flowing. The compactibility and sinterability of those powders are poor. However drastic reduction of particle size by milling (connected with their transformation to irregular shape) significantly improves the sinterability.

ABSTRACTThe starting sols were prepared by addition of ammonium hydroxide to acidic solutions of Y-Ba-Cu acetates or by dissolving solid Ba9CO9 or CuCO9.CuCOH)2H2O in acetates of the remaining components. The sols were then gelled to spherical particles with diameter below 50μm by extracting water with 2-ethyl-l-hexanol or to shard by evaporation of water. After thermal treatment of both powders amorphous and then crystalline YBa2Cu,9O7−x were obtained. Formation of these compounds is strongly improved by aging the gel at 200°C. Green and sintered pellets exhibit excellent superconductivity properties.

ABSTRACTSol-gel processes for the synthesis of high purity, ultrafine BaTi4O9 and BaTiO3 powders are described. Hydrolysis of an alkoxide precursor derived from barium metal and titanium (IV) isopropoxide resulted in formation of powders consisting of ultrafine (0.2 to 1.0 μm) spherical particles. These amorphous precursor powders were converted to crystalline BaTi4O9 powders (particle size 2–3 μm) by heat treatment at 1100 C. The sol-gel process for the synthesis of BaTiOj powders utilized chemical polymerization between moisture insensitive and relatively inexpensive barium acetate and titanium (IV) isopropoxide in the presence of acetic acid. The gel to ceramic conversion was achieved by firing the gels at 1000 °C to obtain high purity, stoichiometric BaTiO3 powders. The powders were sintered to obtain relatively dense (90 % relative density) ceramic bodies.

Thin films of Al 2 O 3 were prepared by the sol–gel process. Dip-coating technique was used for deposition of the Al 2 O 3 thin films onto glass substrates. Optical and structural properties of the films were investigated with respect to the annealing temperature (100–500°C). The structure of these films was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was performed for the analysis of surface morphology. For determination of the optical constants of Al 2 O 3 thin films, UV-Visible spectrophotometry measurements were carried out. Annealing temperature affects the structural and optical properties of the Al 2 O 3 thin films. The refractive index and extinction coefficient of the films at 550 nm wavelength increase from 1.56 to 1.66, and from 3.41 × 10-5 to 5.54 × 10-5, respectively while optical band gap and thickness of the films decrease from 4.15 eV to 4.11 eV, and 360 nm to 260 nm, respectively, by increasing annealing temperature from 100°C to 500°C.

Reactive aluminum alkoxide (ASB, aluminium sec-butoxide) was chelated using β-diketone (EAA, ethyl acetoacetate) in order to gain control over rapid hydrolysis in the course of the sol-gel process. Derived chelates were analysed using several NMR spectroscopic techniques: one-dimensional 1H, 13C, 27Al NMR and two-dimensional COSY, HSQC and DOSY. The NMR analysis enabled identification of the formed chelate species, as well as determination of their quantitative relationships. Several complexation products were observed: tris-chelated monomer, Al(EAA)3, bis-chelated dimmer, Al2(OnBu)4(EAA) 2, tris-chelated dimmer, Al2(OnBu)3(EAA)3, tetra-chelated dimmer, Al2(OnBu)2(EAA)4, and monochelated trimer, Al3(OnBu)8(EAA). Of the formed oligomer compounds, this is the first evidence of Al2(OR)3L3 in any alkoxide and β-ketoester or β-diketone combination. Aluminium sec-butoxide and ethyl acetoacetate complexes Al2(OnBu)4(EAA) 2 and Al2(OnBu)2(EAA)4 were also observed for the first time. With the increase of the EAA/ASB ratio the coordination of aluminium shifts towards six, whereas above the EAA/ASB ratio of 2.5 solely six-coordinated aluminium exists.

Osteoconductive bone-repairing materials with mechanical properties analogous to those of human bone can be prepared through the combination of an osteoconductive ceramic filler with an organic polymer. Osteoconduction is archived from apatite formation on substrates. Previously, we reported that novel osteoconductive spherical particles in a binary CaO-SiO2 system were produced through a sol-gel process as ceramic filler for the fabrication of composites. In this study, we fabricated the composites consisting of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and 30CaO·70SiO2 (CS) spherical particles and evaluated the effects of heat treatment in the range of 320-360 °C on apatite formation of the composites in a simulated body fluid. The prepared composites of PEEK and CS particles form hydroxyapatite on their surfaces in the simulated body fluid. The induction periods of hydroxyapatite on the composites decreased with increasing the amount of CS particles and decreasing the temperature for heat treatment. The apatite formation was affected by exposure of ceramic filler on the polymer matrix.
