Antibacterial materials based on nanotechnology have been attracted considerable attention by the scientific community. In this study, the sol-gel method was applied to prepare of antibacterial materials from tetra-n-butyl orthotitanate, zinc nitrate and ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) as a complexing agent. The effects of the synthesis conditions on the properties of the Ag/ZnTiO3 samples such as the calcination temperature, the calcination time, pH value and ethylene glycol volume, were investigated. The obtained materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and their antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (S. Aureus) was evaluated. The results showed that the optimum conditions for Ag/ZnTiO3 synthesis were: calcination temperature of 650°C, calcination time of 2 h, pH value of 4.5 and ethylene glycol volume of 4.5 mL.

Antibacterial materials have been studying in many researches. In this study, sol-gel method was applied to synthesis of antibacterial materials from initial components Ag, TiO2 and ZnO. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was used to produce the medium complexion compounds. Ag/ZnTiO3 powder was formed when the ratio of Ag/EDTA/(ZnO,TiO2) is 0.1:2:1 while Ag/Zn2TiO4 powder was formed when this ratio is 0.1:6:1. The X-ray Diffraction (XRD) results were obtained from these compounds. Then both compounds were tested the antibacterial property with Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) in the concentrations of 20mg/ml in 1– 4 hrs.

In this research, LiMn2O4 nanopowders were synthesized via sol–gel method using gelatin as a novel chelating agent. The effect of temperature and pH on the structure, morphology and particle size of synthesized powders has been investigated by the differential thermal analysis (DTA), the X-ray diffraction (XRD), the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and the field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). The crystal structure of LiMn2O4 was completely formed without any impurity phase at a calcination temperature of 750[Formula: see text]C. The peak intensity ratio of I[Formula: see text]/I[Formula: see text], which presents the stability of LiMn2O4 structure, is bigger for the sample with pH[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]4 than that of the samples with pH[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]7 and 8. The sample with pH[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]4 has smaller particles of about 70 nm, with more homogeneity and less agglomeration than that of the other samples. At calcination temperature to 850[Formula: see text]C, the size of the particles has become bigger and the particle surfaces show more clarity in all samples. The effect of the pH value on electrochemical properties was studied by galvanostatic charge/discharge tests. The results show more capacity lost for the sample with pH[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]8 with regards to the other samples.

This research aims to treat pharmaceutical wastewater with the ZnO-TiO2composite material prepared by the sol-gel method. It examines and analyzes the causes and effects of ZnO‘s doping ratio, calcination temperature calcination time and irradiation time on ZnO-TiO2 composite photocatalyst material’s degradation of pharmaceutical wastewater. Both the undoped TiO2 test and the blank test are done for its reference and contrast.

The layered LiNi1/2Mn1/2O2 cathode materials were synthesized by a sol gel method. The effects of calcination temperature and time on the structural and electrochemical properties of the LiNi1/2Mn1/2O2 were investigated. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical analysis. The results revealed that the layered LiNi1/2Mn1/2O2 material could be optimal synthesized at temperature of 900°C for 10h. The sample prepared under the above conditions has the highest initial discharge capacity of 151 mAh/g and showed no dramatic capacity fading during 20 cycles between 2.5-4.5V at a current rate of 20mA/g.

Research on synthesis of bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) using sol-gel method with varying calcination temperatures at 500, 600, and 700 °C has been done. This study aims to determine the effect of calcination temperature on the characteristics of the obtained products which encompasses crystal structure, surface morphology, band-gap energy, and photocatalytic activity for the decolorization of methyl orange dyes through its kinetic study. Bismuth oxide prepared by sol-gel method was undertaken by dissolving Bi(NO3)3·5H2O and citric acid in HNO3. The mixture was stirred then heated at 100 °C. The gel formed was dried in the oven and then calcined at 500, 600, and 700 °C for 5 h. The obtained products were a pale yellow powder, indicating the formation of bismuth oxide. This is confirmed by the existence of Bi–O and Bi–O–Bi functional groups through FTIR analysis. All three products possess the same mixed crystal structures of α-Bi2O3 (monoclinic) and γ-Bi2O3 (body center cubic), but their morphologies and band gap values are different. The higher the calcination temperature, the larger the particle size and the smaller the band gap value. The accumulative differences in characteristics appoint SG700 to have the highest photocatalytic activity compared to SG600 and SG500 as indicated by its percent degradation value and decolorization rate constant.

In this present study, the spherical silica support was synthesized from tetraethyloxysilane (TEOS), water, sodium hydroxide, ethylene glycol and n-dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (C12TMABr). The particle size was controlled by variation of the ethylene glycol co-solvent weight ratio of a sol-gel method preparation in the range of 0.10 to 0.50. In addition, the particle size apparently increases with high weight ratio of co-solvent, but the particle size distribution was broader. The standard deviation of particle diameter is large when the co-solvent weight ratio is more than 0.35 and less than 0.15. However, the specific surface area was similar for all weight ratios ranging from 1000 to 1300 m2/g. The synthesized silica was spherical and has high specific surface area. The cobalt was impregnated onto the obtained silica to produce the cobalt catalyst used for CO2 hydrogenation.</
