The cubic pyrochlore phase Bi1.5ZnNb1.5O7 nanopowder was successfully synthesized by the hydrothermal method (HTM) from the starting materials: Bi(NO3)3·5H2O, ZnO, Nb2O5 and the mineralizer: KOH. The XRD patterns prove that the cubic pyrochlore phase Bi1.5ZnNb1.5O7 nanopowder can be obtained by HTM, and TEM photographs show that the powders present the regularly granular shape, when the hydrothermal reactions were conducted at synthesis temperatures 140~220°C and reaction time for 6~48h. The crystalline sizes of the powders were calculated by the Scherrer equation to be about 43~49nm. The crystalline sizes decreased both with the increase in synthesis temperature and the prolonged reaction time until they reached to the minimum size about 43nm at 220°C for 24h.However, they tended to increase when the reaction time was above 24h.

Nano-ZrO2 has a high atomic active surface and is used as catalyst carrier. The traditional method of preparing ZrO2 nanofibers is electrostatic spinning, which has the problems of high cost and high equipment requirements. In order to solve the shortcomings of traditional preparation methods and prepare excellent ZrO2 nanofibers, a series of ZrO2 nanofibers were prepared based on hydrothermal method by changing the types of reactants, the ratio of reactants to organic additives, solvents, reaction time and other relevant parameters, to explore the growth mechanism of ZrO2 nanofibers, providing a new idea for the preparation of ZrO2 nanofibers on the active surface of altiplano.

A series of enhanced red and green emission phosphors: [Formula: see text] (SYP): [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] were successfully synthesized via a novel hydrothermal method. The structural and optical properties were investigated through XRD and PL (photoluminescence) measurements. The results of PL spectra revealed that SYP exhibited red and green emission for [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]-phosphors doped, respectively. In order to obtain optimal phosphors, we proposed the concentration of dopants and the reaction time. Results indicated that enhanced red and green emission phosphors SYP may be potential candidates in light-emitting diodes (LEDs).

Molybdenum sulfide (MoS2) has emerged as a promising catalyst for hydrogen evolution applications. The synthesis method mainly employed is a conventional hydrothermal method. This method requires a longer time compared to other methods such as microwave synthesis methods. There is a lack of comparison of the two synthesis methods in terms of crystal morphology and its electrochemical activities. In this work, MoS2 nanosheets are synthesized using both hydrothermal (HT-MoS2) and advanced microwave methods (MW-MoS2), their crystal morphology, and catalytical efficiency towards hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) were compared. MoS2 nanosheet is obtained using microwave-assisted synthesis in a very short time (30 min) compared to the 24 h hydrothermal synthesis method. Both methods produce thin and aggregated nanosheets. However, the nanosheets synthesized by the microwave method have a less crumpled structure and smoother edges compared to the hydrothermal method. The as-prepared nanosheets are tested and used as a catalyst for hydrogen evolution results in nearly similar electrocatalytic performance. Experimental results showed that: HT-MoS2 displays a current density of 10 mA/cm2 at overpotential (−280 mV) compared to MW-MoS2 which requires −320 mV to produce a similar current density, suggesting that the HT-MoS2 more active towards hydrogen evolutions reaction.
