The ZrW2-xMoxO8 (0≤x≤2) system has a unique property - a negative coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), that is it shrinks when heated. Such materials solve the problem of undesirable thermal expansion of composites in many areas. In contradistinction to ZrW2O8 and ZrMo2O8, this system has anomalously low CTE values [1,2] and adverse phase transition is shifted to a lower temperature, unlikely area for operation [3,4]. At the same time, the fundamental question remains about the mechanism of formation of ZrW2-xMoxO8(0≤x≤2). According to [5,6], pure cubic ZrW2O8 and ZrMo2O8 are obtained by thermal decomposition of the precursor ZrM2O7(OH)2· 2H2O, where (M = Mo, W). However, the structure of the precursor is extremely sensitive to various changes in the synthesis process. To date, there are a number of works devoted to the hydrothermal synthesis of precursors ZrW2-xMoxO7(OH)2·2H2O (0≤x≤2) solid solutions, however, not all formulations were obtained during the hydrothermal reaction. The study of their thermal properties, as well as structural and phase transformations are not fully studied. Within the paper it was first time proposed to obtain full number of nanosized materials by the hydrothermal method and also to study the nature of the thermal expansion of each member of the solid solution. The obtained data will solve many technical problems associated with dimensional nonvariance in the electronic, oil and gas, optical industry, medicine and rocket engineering.

This research improves upon prior research efforts on the hydrothermal synthesis of barium titanate (BaTiO3) films. It has been established that BaTiO3 can be synthesized using a two-step hydrothermal reaction that first synthesizes TiO2 then converts it to BaTiO3. Past research, however, resulted in relatively low ferroelectric properties using this technique. The research addresses that shortcoming by offering an optimized hydrothermal synthesis process that significantly increase the electromechanical coupling of the BaTiO3 film. Here, it is shown that the d33 achieves a value of 80 pm/V, which is the bulk BaTiO3 value. Additionally, this optimization results in an enhanced dielectric constant of 1600. Therefore, this research reveals that the ferroelectric properties of a hydrothermally synthesized BaTiO3 film can be significantly enhanced through slight modifications in the hydrothermal processing procedure.

The thermo-physical properties of the nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal K3B6O10Br (KBB) were experimentally investigated, including specific heat, thermal conductivity, coefficient of thermal expansion and refractive index. The specific heat of KBB is lower than that of LiB3O5 and higher than that of other borate NLO crystals, such as β-BaB2O4, CsLiB6O10 and CsB3O5, and KBB manifests a high damage threshold because of its lower temperature gradient during laser pulse irradiation. The thermal expansion coefficients were obtained as α x = 5.09 × 10−6 K−1 and α z = 2.39 × 10−5 K−1, showing weaker anisotropy than those of commonly used NLO crystals. The temperature-dependent Sellmeier dispersion equations of the refractive indices were also obtained, and the phase-matching angles for second harmonic generation (SHG) at temperatures of 313, 343, 373, 403 and 433 K which were calculated from these equations are in good agreement with the experimental values. All results are indicative of the KBB crystal as a novel promising NLO crystal for high power SHG.

This work is dealing with synthesis of leucite powder, which can be used for the preparation of dental glassceramic composites by subsequent thermal treatment. Newly developed procedure is based on preparation of dental raw material as a mixture of two separate compounds: the crystalline leucite powder prepared at relatively low temperature and a commercial matrix powder. Hydrothermal synthesis of tetragonal leucite particles (KAlSi2O6) with the average size of about 3 ?m was developed in our laboratory. The leucite dental raw material was prepared by mixing of 20 wt.% of synthetic tetragonal leucite with commercial matrix. Dental composites were prepared from the dental raw material by uniaxial pressing and firing up to 960?C. Dilatometric measurements confirmed that the coefficient of thermal expansion increased by 32% when 20 wt.% of the tetragonal leucite was added into the basic matrix. In addition, it was showed that the synthesized leucite powder was suitable for the preparation of leucite composites with controlled coefficient of thermal expansion. High value of the thermal expansion coefficient enables application of prepared composite in metal-ceramics restorations.

By variation of reaction temperature and time during the hydrothermal synthesis process, TiO2 nanoparticles in anatase, rutile, and mixture of rutile-anatase phases are formed without adding any mineralizer. Differential thermal analysis studies indicate the rutile phase crystallization at a comparatively lower temperature and a low weight loss. The material synthesized by hydrothermal reaction required no post-calcination for the crystallization. Transmission electron microscopy, selected-area diffraction, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, and x-ray diffreaction studies confirmed the compositions to be anatase and rutile with the particle size ranging from 5 to 25 nm with surface area as high as 260 m2/g for the anatase and 65 m2/g for rutile. The prepared nanoparticles exhibited a blue shift of the absorption edge in the ultraviolet-visible spectrum greater than 10 nm. The particles with average size around 5 nm showed two band edges in the absorption spectra attributed to two different particle sizes. Simple photocatalytic reactions were tried to demonstrate the photochemical activity of the synthesized material. The synthesized nanoparticles exhibited an ultraviolet radiation simultaneous photoreduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and oxidation of formic acid into carbon dioxide and water.
