This study proposes a hydrothermal process to produce monetite and zinc-doped calcium phosphate coatings with different (Ca+Zn)/P molar ratios, in an attempt to incorporate zinc benefits on bone formation to hydroxyapatite precursors. The method consists of coating niobium and titanium substrates in an aqueous solution rich in (PO4)3-and calcium (Ca)2+ions under specific conditions (pH ≡ 3.7, 80°C). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses were performed to characterize the coatings. From XRD analysis, we concluded that substitution of Ca by Zn was feasible up to 15% mol Zn, and the new phase obtained was parascholzite (JCPDS-01-086-2372).

PbTiO3 crystals with different morphologies, such as flower-like and spherical shape, which was constructed by oriented nanoparticles have been obtained by a simple surfactant-free hydrothermal process assisted by K2CO3 as a mineralizer. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was applied to examine the purity and crystallinity of the as-prepared samples. The morphologies have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that the self-assembly structures of PbTiO3 crystals were dependent on the addition amount of K2CO3 and the formation mechanism of the products was briefly discussed.

Porous calcium phosphate coatings were formed by the micro-arc oxidation method on the surface of titanium for the loading and controlled release of the anticancer drug doxorubicin. The coatings’ morphology and microstructure were examined by scanning electron microscopy. The phase composition was determined with the help of X-ray diffraction analysis. Studies of the hydrophilic properties of the coatings and their zeta potential were carried out. Data on the kinetics of doxorubicin adsorption-desorption were obtained. In addition, the effect of calcium phosphate coatings impregnated with doxorubicin on the viability of the Neuro-2a cell line was revealed. The coating formed at low voltages of 200–250 V contained a greater number of branched communicating pores, and therefore they were able to adsorb a greater amount of doxorubicin. The surface charge also contributes to the process of the adsorption-desorption of doxorubicin, but this effect is not fully understood and further studies are required to identify it.

The solvothermal synthesis between Me(NO3)x ∙ yH2O (Mex+ = Fe3+, Ni2+, Mn2+, Co2+, Cu2+) and respectively 4-nitrosalycilic (4NSA) and 5-sulfosalicylic (5SSA) acids produced hybrid organic-inorganic compounds composed of Mex+ ions and organic fragments which include three different functional groups, carboxylic, hydroxyl and sulfonic, each coordinated to the Mex+ ions. The phase and chemical composition, microstructure and properties of Me2(H2O)4(5SSA)3·DMF and Me2(H2O)4(4NSA)2·DMF (DMF – dimethylformamide) hybrid compounds were evaluated and discussed. The synthesised materials were characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The catalytic properties of the obtained compounds were also investigated.

Pure and Ag-TiO2nanoparticles were synthesized, with the metallic doping being done using the Liquid Impregnation (LI) method. The resulting nanoparticles were characterized by analytical methods such as scanning electron micrographs (SEMs), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). XRD analysis indicated that the crystallite size ofTiO2was 27 nm to 42 nm while the crystallite size of Ag-TiO2was 11.27 nm to 42.52 nm. The photocatalytic activity of pureTiO2and silver dopedTiO2was tested by photocatalytic degradation ofp-nitrophenol as a model compound. Ag-TiO2nanoparticles exhibited better results (98% degradation) as compared to pureTiO2nanoparticles (83% degradation) in 1 hour for the degradation ofp-nitrophenol. Ag-TiO2was further used for the photocatalytic degradation of 2,4-dichlorphenol (99% degradation), 2,5-dichlorophenol (98% degradation), and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (96% degradation) in 1 hour. The degree of mineralization was tested by TOC experiment indicating that 2,4-DCP was completely mineralized, while 2,5-DCP was mineralized upto 95 percent and 2,4,6-TCP upto 86 percent within a period of 2 hours.

NiFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by a hydrothermal process, and the effect of temperature on them was studied. The particles were annealed at various temperatures ranging from 413 to 1473 K. Studies were carried out using powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and a vibrating sample magnetometer. The annealing temperature had a significant effect on the magnetic and structural parameters, such as the crystallite size, lattice parameter, magnetization and coercivity.

In this paper, the effect of size variation of cadmium sulphide nanocrystallites which have been prepared by precipitation method is analyzed. These prepared samples were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Energy dispersive analysis of spectroscopy (EDAX) techniques. SEM analysis represents the morphological nature of prepared samples and EDAX indicates the confirmation of elements present in the sample. XRD analysis determines the size of the samples and identifies the structure using miller indices (h k l values) of the nanocrystallies matches with JCPDS. From the XRD analysis, the size variation which depends on dopant, capping agent are discussed and corresponding results are reported in this paper.

MgB2 superconductor is a superconductor with a critical temperature of around 39K and has the potential to replace Nb3Sn and NbTi as superconducting coils to produce high magnetic fields. In this study, monofilament wires have been made to analyze the doping effect of SiC and Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) in its manufacture using Powder-In-Tube (PIT) method. Stainless Steel (SS-316) tube was used as a tube filled with powders of starting materials of Mg, B, SiC and CNT. A total of 8 samples were prepared with variations in the addition of SiC, and CNT as much as 5, 10, and 15 wt %, and also the variations in the addition of Mg composition by 0 and 10 mol % from normal stoichiometric values. The samples were rolled and sintered at 800°C for 3 hours. The samples then were analyzed using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) to analyze the surface morphology, XRD (X-Ray Diffractometer) to analyze the formed phases and crystal structures, and then resistivity versus temperature using cryogenic systems to analyze their superconductivity properties. Based on the results of the XRD analysis, the MgB2 phase is the major phase in the samples and the SiC doping causes the formation of minor phases of Mg2Si and Fe3C. The addition of SiC causes a decrease in crystalline properties of the MgB2 phase due to reaction with SiC, while the addition of CNT does not cause the formation of a new phase. Based on the results of the analysis of resistance versus temperature, it is seen that the addition of SiC causes a decrease in TC value. While the addition of CNT causes the improvement in the nature of superconductivity, but it also causes the decrease of its TC values.

ABSTRACTVarious cations (Li+, Na+, K+, NH4+, Cs+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Ba2+) were introduced during the formation of a V2O5. nH2O gel. Cation intercalated Xy V2O5. nH2O (y = 0.3 for X = Li+, Na+, K+, NH4+ or y = 0.15 for Mg2+, Ca2+, Ba2+) were first obtained at room temperature but some of them evolve upon ageing into a new phase: XV3O8. nH2O for X = Na+, K+, NH4+ and Cs+ or XV6O16. nH2O for X = Mg2+, Ca2+, Ba2+. All the vanadium oxide phases were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and infrared spectroscopy (IR); the supernatant solutions were analysed by 51V NMR spectroscopy. These vanadium oxide phases exhibit a layered structure with cations and water molecules intercalated within the interlayer space. The formation of the different phases depends mainly on the pH of the supernatant solution and on the nature of the cation.

In this paper, anodization of Ti foil was carried out in ethylene glycol (EG) containing 5 wt% NH4F solution and 0 to 1.5 wt% of water at 50 V for 60 min. The pH of the bath was kept constant at ~pH7. The crystal structure was studied by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis, and the morphology was observed via field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). TiO2 nanotube with aspect ratio of 100 was obtained in EG containing less than 1wt % water. The nanotubes wall was very smooth. Increasing the water content > 1wt % results in short nanotubes of approximately 6.2μm with aspect ratio of 62. As anodized, nanotubes were amorphous and annealed at 400 °C promote 100 % anatase phase. Photocatalytic activity of the nanotubes produced at different water content was also evaluated by the degradation of methyl orange and the detail of the observation was discussed thoroughly in this paper.
