Synthesis and characterization of Fe3O4/TiO2-Co as magnetic photocatalyst had been done. The research was started with the preparation of magnetite through co-precipitation and sonication system, followed by preparation of Co-dopedTiO2 using sol-gel method and then mixed both of them with a ratio of Fe3O4:TiO2 1:3; 1:9; 1:15 (FT3, FT9, FT15) and ended by calcination. The product was characterised by using Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray spectrophotometer (SEM-EDX), UV-Specular reflectance spectrophotometer (SR-UV) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The resulting material showed a maximum value of band gap energy at 2.83 eV in FT3. The effect of Fe3O4:TiO2 ratio known can be affected the magnetic moment and showed the optimum result 2.0 emu/g in FT3. The magnetic character of Fe3O4/TiO2-Co also known can be affected by the magnetite crystalline size from the composites composition.

AbstractIn recent decades, to reduce electromagnetic pollution, scientists focus on finding new microwave absorbers with effective performance, thin thickness, and broad bandwidth. In this work, the nanoparticles of NiFe2O4, X-doped g-C3N4 (M = S, P, and O), and MTiO3 (M = Fe, Mg, and Zn) were successfully synthesized using co-precipitation, specific heat program, and semi-wet sol–gel methods, respectively. The synthesized nanoparticles were utilized as absorption agents and polyester resin as the matrix. Morphology, particle size, crystal structure, and chemical composition of the prepared nanocomposites were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), and energy dispersive X-Ray analysis (EDX), respectively. The microwave absorption performance of the coatings was also investigated by a vector network analyzer (VNA). Moreover, the effect of different parameters on the performance of absorbent coatings was studied by the Taguchi method and optimized to achieve an optimal absorbent. The results showed that the optimal nanocomposite has the reflectance loss (RL) less than − 30 dB (equal to absorption > 99%) at a high-frequency range (8–12 GHz) and 1 mm thickness. Furthermore, the addition of such novel nanoparticles to absorbents resulted in high values of attenuation constant (more than 200 dB/m) at the X-band. Therefore, the polyester coating filled with ZnTiO3, O-doped g-C3N4, and NiFe2O4 nanofillers can be considered a high-efficiency and low-density absorber.

A novel nanocomposite ZnFe2O4-TiO2/MCM-41 (ZTM) was synthesized by a sol-gel method and characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), N2adsorption-desorption, Raman spectroscopy, and ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometry. The results confirmed the incorporation of ZnFe2O4-TiO2nanoparticles inside the pores of the mesoporous MCM-41 host without destroying its integrity. ZnFe2O4nanoparticles can inhibit the transformation of anatase into rutile phase of TiO2. Incorporation of ZnFe2O4-TiO2within MCM-41 avoided the agglomeration of nanoparticles and reduced the band gap energy of TiO2to enhance its visible light photocatalytic activity. UV-vis absorption edges of ZTM nanocomposites redshifted with the increase of Zn/Ti molar ratio. The nanocomposite approach could be a potential choice for enhancing the photoactivity of TiO2, indicating an interesting application in the photodegradation and photoelectric fields.

Multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) nanotubes have been successfully fabricated by the modified sol–gel method within the nanochannels of porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates. The morphology, structure and composition of the nanotubes were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), selected-area electron diffraction (SAED), high resolution TEM, (HRTEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Postannealed (650 °C for 1 h), BFO nanotubes were polycrystalline and X-ray diffraction study revealed that they are of the rhomohedrally distorted perovskite crystal structure. The results of SEM and TEM revealed that BFO nanotubes possessed a uniform length (up to 60 μm) and diameter (about 200 nm), which were controlled by the thickness and the pore diameter of the applied AAO template, respectively and the thickness of the wall of the BFO nanotube was about 15 nm. Y-junctions in the BFO nanotubes were observed. EDX analysis demonstrated that stoichiometric BiFeO3 was formed. HRTEM analysis confirmed that the obtained BFO nanotubes made up of nanoparticles (3–6 nm). The possible formation mechanism of BFO nanotubes was discussed.

The magnetic Fe2O3 nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method with FeCl3 and NaOH as starting reagents. The surface of Fe2O3 nanoparticles was modified with tetraethyl orthosilicate. Fe2O3@SiO2 nanocomposites were calcined at 600 °C. The nanocomposites were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX).

This study prepared Magnesium-Partially Stabilized Zirconia (Mg-PSZ) filler synthesis and direct foaming technique using egg whites, and impregnated by PMMA. The results were evaluated systematically by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). XRD results denote that the powder sample of MgPSZ was successfully formed with various crystal size of tetragonal and monoclinic phase. SEM and TEM observations revealed that nanoparticles MgPSZ were in spherical and long rounded shapes. Furthermore, SEM observation revealed that the direct foaming method were also successful in the formation of porous structures which favourable for impregnation process by PMMA. The use of egg whites as a polymer precursor in both methods demonstrates that porous specimens contained nanosized, predominantly tetragonal, Mg-PSZ powders were successfully synthesized. This shall yield an interesting prospect towards cheap, reliable, and biocompatible product to resemble the modulus elasticity of dentin.

Nanoparticles of Zn1-xFexS ( x=0.0,0.1,0.2 and 0.3) were prepared by chemical co-precipitation method from homogenous solution of zinc and ferum salt at room temperature with controlled parameter. These nanoparticles were sterically stabilized using Sodium Hexamethaphospate (SHMP). Here, a study of the effect of Fe doping on structure, morphological and optical properties of nanoparticles was undertaken. Elemental analysis, morphological and optical properties have been investigated by Fourier-Transform-Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), Field Emmision Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and UV-Visible Spectroscopy. FTIR measurement confirmed the presence of SHMP in the nanoparticles structure with the FESEM images depicting considerable less agglomeration of particles with the presence of SHMP. While XRF results confirm the presence of Fe2+ ion as prepared in the experiment. The particles sizes of the nanoparticles lay in the range of 2-10 nm obtained from the TEM image were in agreement with the XRD results. The absorption edge shifted to lower wavelengths with an increase in Fe concentration shown in the UV-Vis spectroscopy. The band gap energy value was in the range of 4.95 5.15 eV. The blueshift is attributed to the quantum confinement effect.
