Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) is considered to be an excellent candidate for lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. In this study, we propose a hydrothermal method for the preparation of single phase NBT powder at relatively low treatment-temperature. The particle size and morphology of the synthesized powders were examined by SEM. The powders were further pressed into disk and sintered at 1120°C/2h in air, and its properties and microstructure were compared with traditionally prepared samples.

AbstractTo characterize particle size/magnetic property relationships, 9 to 50 nm in diameter barium hexaferrite, BaFe12O19 (BHF), particles were prepared using a new synthesis route. By replacing the conventional 50 to 100 nm particles of goethite with nanocrystalline goethite produced via the microwave anneal method of Knight and Sylva [1], nanocrystalline BHF was synthesized using the hydrothermal method. Evolution of particle size and morphology with respect to concentration and heat treatment time is reported. Hysteresis properties, including coercivity (0.2 – 1.0 kOe), magnetization saturation (0.1 – 33.4 emu/g), and magnetization remanence (0.004 – 22.5 emu/g) are discussed as a function of particle size. The magnetization saturation and remanence of the 7 nm particles is nearly zero, suggesting the superparamagnetic threshold size for BHF is around this size. In addition, the equilibrium morphology of BHF crystals was calculated to be truncated hexagonal prisms which was verified by experiment, and the isoelectric point, pH of 4.1, was measured for 18 nm BHF particles.

Salt-matrix annealing of mechanically alloyed Co -ferrite nanopowder was used to modify its particle size and morphology. Efficiency improvement due to suppression of sintering and growth resulted in reduction of average particle size from ~100nm for salt-less to ~40nm for salt-full annealing procedure. Nanosized single-phase cobalt-ferrite particles were observed after 2h annealing at 750°C in the samples milled for 20 hours both with and without NaCl . NaCl:CoFe 2 O 4 ratio of 10:1 resulted in cabbage-like clusters containing particles smaller than ~50 nm.

This paper discusses the physicochemical properties of powders obtained by spray drying of cloudy beetroot juice, using dehumidified air in variants with or without carriers. The inlet air temperature was 130 °C or 90 °C, and the addition of the carriers was at a ratio of juice to carrier solids of 3:2. In the obtained powders, the following physicochemical properties were determined: water content and water activity, apparent density, loose and tapped density, porosity, flowability, particle size and morphology, and the content and retention of betalains. It was possible to dry cloudy beetroot juice without the use of carriers at low temperatures (90 or 130 °C). The 100% beetroot powders were characterized by satisfactory physicochemical properties, often better than those with carriers (including lower hygroscopicity and higher color saturation and yield). A lower loss of betalains was found for the powders with the addition of carriers. The best process yields were obtained for the powder without carriers at 130 °C and 90 °C.

Using calculations based on first principles, we demonstrate that the preferred interface in singles LiFePO4 particles depends both on the particle size and morphology.

The compound CaCl2 plays a significant role in the process of direct calciothermic reduction of Ti2O3 to prepare porous titanium. In this paper, the effect of CaCl2 on reduction products by calciothermic reduction of Ti2O3 was investigated. Results show that the distribution of CaCl2 in reduction preform influences particle size and morphology differences in reduction products both on the surface and the inside. The CaCl2 is transferred to the surface of the Ti2O3 preform due to its volatilization before and throughout reduction. The content of CaCl2 in the surface zone of Ti2O3 preform is significantly higher than that in the interior during the reduction process, contributing to the formation of large Ti particles with a smooth shape on the surface, and small Ti particles with inherited morphology of Ti2O3 inside. More CaCl2 causes the aggregation of Ti particles to form large Ti particles which are advantageous as they connect and form a more solid porous titanium structure. The presence of a small amount of CaCl2 in the interior also results in the coexistence of small Ti and CaO particles, forming a loose structure with uniform distribution.
