AbstractIn this work, the synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles by two variant chemical coprecipitation methods that involve reflux and aging conditions was investigated. The influence of the synthesis conditions on particle size, morphology, magnetic properties and protein adsorption were studied. The synthesized magnetite nanoparticles showed a spherical shape with an average particle size directly influenced by the synthesis technique. Particles of average size 27 nm and 200 nm were obtained. When the coprecipitation method was used without reflux and aging, the smallest particles were obtained. Magnetite nanoparticles obtained from both methods exhibited a superparamagnetic behavior and their saturation magnetization was particle size dependent. Values of 67 and 78 emu g−1 were obtained for the 27 nm and 200 nm magnetite particles, respectively. The nanoparticles were coated with silica, aminosilane, and silica-aminosilane shell. The influence of the coating on protein absorption was studied using Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) protein.

Nanoparticles of Cr2O3 were successfully obtained via hydrothermal reduction of CH3OH. The oxidant and chromium source was CrO3. The process needs no stirrer or surfactant and the CrO3 concentration was 0.83mol/L. The obtained products were loosely agglomerated Cr2O3 nanoparticles with the average size of 29 to 79 nm. Influences of reactant ratios and calcination temperatures on the specific surface area and average particle size were discussed. And the morphology of nanoparticles was investigated by use of field-emission scanning electron microscope.

Nano-sized BaTiO3 powders with narrow size distribution and the high tetragonality were attempted to synthesize by the rotary-hydrothermal process in water system, using two kinds of commercial anatase-type TiO2 (ST21/ST01) with different particle size and Ba(OH)2. The rotary-hydrothermal syntheses were done with the rotary-speed of 20 revolutions per minute at 523 K for 24 h. Highly- and mono-dispersed BaTiO3 powders were successfully synthesized by applying the rotary-hydrothermal process. For rotary-hydrothermal synthesis, it was found that the average size, tetragonality, and quality of the BaTiO3 particle strongly depended on the particle size of the starting material. In the case of using ST01 as a starting material, BaTiO3 nano-powders mainly composed of coarse-faceted particles (average particle size = ca.100 nm) with the tetragonal phase and very little lattice defects were successfully synthesized.

AbstractThrough the present study, an eco-friendly method was used to synthesize the gold nanoparticles (GNPs) by using the sodium citrate and extract of the soybean seed as reducing the agents at PH 3. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) method was used to evaluate the crystal structure of as-synthesized NPs and it’s revealed that this method leads to well crystallized GNPs. In order to determine the particle size and their distribution, field emission scanning microscopy (FE-SEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were used. The results showed that, the average particle size distribution of synthesized GNPs in solutions containing of the soybean extract and 1% citrate at PH 3 is about 109.6 and 140.9 nm, respectively. Also, we find that the average size of GNPs is 40 and 33 nm from solutions of citrate and soybean extract, respectively. It was concluded that using the extract of soybean seeds as reducing agent can lead to GNPs with small size and narrow size distribution.

Spherical La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.2O3-δ (LSGM) precursor powders were synthesized by aerosol plasma pyrolysis using an aqueous solution of metal nitrate. As-prepared powders obtained by this method were found to have a spherical morphology with a bimodal size distribution of nanosized (primary) and submicron-sized (secondary) particles. The average size of the primary particles was less than 100 nm. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that as-prepared powders crystallized to LSGM and other phases. XRD revealed that LSGM pellets were crystallized to a perovskite structure after sintering at 1300 °C for 10 h.

Liquefaction assessment is the main stage in determining the potential liquefaction in a certain site. In order to assess the potential liquefaction, the values of physical and mechanical properties of the soil are very important. Two main parameters that are essentially needed to determine the liquefaction potential in a sand deposit; those are relative density and men particle size. In Indonesia, CPT is a testing method that is very practically famous and often conducted in the field. Assessment of Liquefaction Potential will be cheap and valuable by using the results of the CPT test. For this reason, this paper describes the results of conducted research to obtain the values of the relative density and mean particle size based on the outcomes of the CPT test: those are cone resistance (qc) and friction ration (Rf). The relationship between qc-Rf and Dr-D50 is accelerated by conducting a series of tests on soil samples with variations in the value of relative density and average particle size. The test results are plotted in a graph as well as in the terms of mathematical formulations to figure out for the relationship between CPT values and Dr-D50 in detail for sands. This research is very useful to assess the liquefaction potential in a particular area with very satisfying results

A method for the synthesis of nanoparticles of the Cu-Fe bimetallic system with limited mutual solubility of the components is proposed. The synthesis method consists of a one-stage process of IR pyrolysis of precursors in the form of films obtained from a joint solution of polyacrylonitrile and hydrates-nitrates of iron and copper. The effect of the synthesis temperature on the structure formation of the nanocomposites and the phase composition of bimetallic Cu-Fe nanoparticles dispersed in the carbon matrix was studied. The analysis showed a simultaneous presence of Fe and Cu phases in nanocomposites, presumably with a low solubility of the components. The average particle size is 14-17 nm and changes insignificantly with an increase in the synthesis temperature from 400 to 700°C. An increase in the synthesis temperature to 800°C led to a broadening of the particle size distribution and the increase in the average size. The formation of complex carbon nanostructures on Cu-Fe nanoparticles is found.

Spherical LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 precursor powders were synthesized by aerosol plasma pyrolysis using aqueous solution of metal nitrate. XRD, SEM, TEM and BET analysis were used for determi- nation of the composition, morphology, particle size and surface area. SEM observation showed that the size of as-prepared particles were about 200 nm. The value of geometrical standard deviation (σg) calculated from the particle size distribution was 1.20, suggesting that the particle size distribution was narrow. The crystal phase of LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 was resulted in layered rock salt structure with R3m space group. The rechargeable capacity of LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 was about 142-175 mAh/g. The discharge capacity of LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 decreased with increasing cycle number. However, the cycling stability of Li(Ni1/3Mn1/3Co1/3)O2 powders that aerosol plasma pyrolysis process offered superior performance to ultrasonic spray pyrolysis process.

BaTiO3 nanopowders were prepared by salt-assisted spray pyrolysis using a flux of KNO3 and NaNO3. Compounds of metal sources are thermally decomposed in the melting flux. Some flux mixtures make a eutectic composition because of the reduced melting point of the flux. The optimum temperature for the preparation of BaTiO3 nanoparticles was 700 °C. When both KNO3 and NaNO3 were used as the flux, the average particle size of the BaTiO3 powders was 40 nm, and the particle distribution was broad. On the other hand, when only KNO3 was used, the average size of BaTiO3 powders was 60 nm, and the particle distribution was narrow. This suggested that the sodium ions in the BaTiO3 nanoparticles led to a broad particle distribution. X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed that all the diffraction peaks were in agreement with the crystal phase of BaTiO3. The relative density of the sintered body of BaTiO3 powders was 87 %. The relative dielectric constant of the sintered body was 1180, and the dielectric loss (tanδ) was 0.023 at room temperature. This suggested that the residual potassium ions in the BaTiO3 nanoparticles led to a reduction in the relative density and dielectric constant.

AbstractBy using tin chloride solution as the raw material, a nano-sized tin oxide powder with average particle size below 50 nm is generated by spray pyrolysis reaction. This study also examines the influences of the reaction parameters such as reaction temperature and the concentration of raw material solution on the powder properties. As the reaction temperature increases from 800 to 850 ℃, the average particle size of the generated powder increases from 20 nm to 30 nm. As the reaction temperature reaches 900 ℃, the droplets are composed of nano-particles with average size of 30 nm, while the average size of individual particles increases remarkably up to 80˜100 nm. When the tin concentration reaches 75 g/L, the average particle size of the powder is below 20 nm. When the tin concentration reaches 150 g/L, the droplets are composed of nano particles with average size around 30 nm, whereas the average size of independent particles increases up to 80˜100 nm. When the concentration reaches 400 g/L, the droplets are composed of nano-particles with average size of 30 nm.
