In this work, nanosized calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (nCDHA) was synthesized by the precipitation method, and then utilized as an adsorbent for removal of Fe (II), Cu (II), Ni (II) and Cr (VI) ions from aqueous solutions after characterizing it by various techniques as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and BET method. A possible structure of synthesized nCDHA was proposed. The adsorption study indicated that the adsorption equilibrium is well fitted with Langmuir isotherm model with the maximum adsorption capacities followed the order of Fe (II) > Cu (II) > Ni (II) > Cr (VI) with the values of 137.23, 128.02, 83.19 and 2.92 mg/g, respectively. The ion-exchange mechanism was dominant for the adsorption of metal ions onto nCDHA at initial metal concentrations lower than 0.01 mol/L. Along with the ion-exchange mechanism, there was an additional precipitation occurred on the surface of nCDHA in the case of Fe (II) and Cu (II) at initial concentrations higher than 0.01 mol/L.

Magnetic graphene oxide nanocomposites (M-GO) were successfully synthesized by partial reduction co-precipitation method and used for removal of Sr(II) and Cs(I) ions from aqueous solutions. The structures and properties of the M-GO was investigated by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and N2-BET measurements. It is found that M-GO has 2.103 mg/g and 142.070 mg/g adsorption capacities for Sr(II) and Cs(I) ions, respectively. The adsorption isotherm matches well with the Freundlich for Sr(II) and Dubinin–Radushkevich model for Cs(I) and kinetic analysis suggests that the adsorption process is pseudo-second-ordered.

Towards the utilization of Cu2O nanomaterial for the degradation of industrial dye pollutants such as methylene blue and methyl orange, the graphene-incorporated Cu2O nanocomposites (GCC) were developed via a precipitation method. Using Hummers method, the grapheme oxide (GO) was initially synthesized. The varying weight percentages (1–4 wt %) of GO was incorporated along with the precipitation of Cu2O catalyst. Various characterization techniques such as Fourier-transform infra-red (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV–visible diffused reflectance (UV-DRS), Raman spectroscopy, thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and electro chemical impedance (EIS) were followed for characterization. The cabbage-like morphology of the developed Cu2O and its composites were ascertained from field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). In addition, the growth mechanism was also proposed. The results infer that 2 wt % GO-incorporated Cu2O composites shows the highest value of degradation efficiency (97.9% and 96.1%) for MB and MO at 160 and 220 min, respectively. Further, its catalytic performance over visible region (red shift) was also enhanced to an appreciable extent, when compared with that of other samples.

In this paper, we prepared mesoporous nickel cobaltite (NiCo2O4) nanostructures with multi-morphologies by simple solvothermal and subsequent heat treatment. By adjusting the solvent type, mesoporous NiCo2O4 nanoparticles, nanorods, nanowires, and microspheres were easily prepared. The as-prepared products were systematically characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method. Furthermore, the catalytic activities towards the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP) of as-prepared NiCo2O4 nanostructures were investigated.

Abstract Lanthanum cerium ferrite nanoparticles has been synthesized for the first time via hydrothermal and co-precipitation method. The structural and morphological study of the nanoparticles have been examined by using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The electrochemical study of J1 and J2 electrodes have been examined using three electrode system in 6 M KOH electrolyte using cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charging-discharging (GCD) and electrochemical impendence spectroscopy (EIS). The highest specific capacitance of 1195 F/g has been obtained at a scan rate of 10 mV/s from hydrothermal synthesis nanomaterial electrode (J2) and long cycling life 92.3% retention after 2000th cycles. Furthermore, the energy density and power density of the J2 electrode at a current density of 5 A/g was 59 Wh/kg and 9234 W/kg respectively. Hence, the fabricated J2 electrode is a favorable candidate for super-capacitor applications.

Impurities free ferromagnetic [Formula: see text] was prepared via sol–gel auto-combustion method and then gold was doped with various concentrations 1, 3 and 5 wt.% using conventional deposition–precipitation method. All samples of [Formula: see text] with/without Au doping were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The room temperature magnetic hysteresis loops of all the samples were measured using a physical property measuring system (PPMS), and the results showed a ferromagnetic behavior at room temperature. The results obtained confirmed the fabrication of magnetite–gold composite nanoparticles. The results showed that the resistance and the magnetic behavior of the samples decrease sharply with the increase of Au concentration indicating semiconducting behavior. The saturation magnetization [Formula: see text] of the bare [Formula: see text] sample (94.72 emu/g) is much higher than that (66.78 emu/g) of the 5 wt.% Au-doped [Formula: see text] sample.

Nanoparticles of Zn1-xFexS ( x=0.0,0.1,0.2 and 0.3) were prepared by chemical co-precipitation method from homogenous solution of zinc and ferum salt at room temperature with controlled parameter. These nanoparticles were sterically stabilized using Sodium Hexamethaphospate (SHMP). Here, a study of the effect of Fe doping on structure, morphological and optical properties of nanoparticles was undertaken. Elemental analysis, morphological and optical properties have been investigated by Fourier-Transform-Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), Field Emmision Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and UV-Visible Spectroscopy. FTIR measurement confirmed the presence of SHMP in the nanoparticles structure with the FESEM images depicting considerable less agglomeration of particles with the presence of SHMP. While XRF results confirm the presence of Fe2+ ion as prepared in the experiment. The particles sizes of the nanoparticles lay in the range of 2-10 nm obtained from the TEM image were in agreement with the XRD results. The absorption edge shifted to lower wavelengths with an increase in Fe concentration shown in the UV-Vis spectroscopy. The band gap energy value was in the range of 4.95 5.15 eV. The blueshift is attributed to the quantum confinement effect.

In this study, a gum Arabic-magnetite nanocomposite (GA/MNPs) was synthesized using the solution method. The prepared nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The prepared composite was evaluated for the adsorption of lead(II) ions from aqueous solutions. The controlling factors such as pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial ion concentration, and temperature were investigated. The optimum adsorption conditions were found to be 0.3 g/50 mL, pH = 6.00, and contact time of 30 min. The experimental data well fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity was determined as 50.5 mg/g. Thermodynamic parameters were calculated postulating an endothermic and spontaneous process and a physio-sorption pathway.
