Powders of Ñî-Ð alloy with ultradispersed corundum (Al2O3) and detonation nanodiamond (DND) precipitates were synthesized by chemical reduction. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electronic microscopy. The shape of the particles was spherical and they were ferromagnetic. Magnetization dependence on field in applied fields of up to 40 kOe and magnetization dependence on temperature in the temperature range from 2 to 300 K were measured. Influence of precipitates on magnetic properties was studied.

Magnetite (Fe3O4) nanobranches were synthesized using an improved solvothermal technique in mixed ethanol and water solvent. Structural and magnetic properties were systematically investigated. X-ray diffraction results showed that the sample was single-phase spinel structure. The results of scanning electronic microscopy exhibited that the grains were regular like-branch with sizes from 3 to 6 μm in length and in diameter between 50 and 200 nm. The composition determined by energy dispersive spectroscopy was very close to the stoichiometry of Fe3O4. The saturation magnetizations (Ms) at 10 and 300 K of the synthesized Fe3O4nanobranches were much lower than the theoretical values. On one hand, it could be explained by obstructive magnetizing along their non-easy magnetic axes by the shape anisotropy of Fe3O4nanobranches, on the other hand, lesserMscan also be understood by the existence of antisite defects.

Natural zeolite of Shivirtui deposit (Russia) was modified with nanofibers of aluminum oxyhydroxide AlOOH. Aluminum oxyhydroxide nanofibers were produced at the heating and oxidation of aluminum powder with water. The properties of modified zeolite were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, transmission electronic microscopy, scanning electronic microscopy, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, thermal analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It was found that water content in the modified sample of zeolite was about 15 %. Based on the study of the physical and chemical properties, shivirtui zeolite modified with nanofibers of aluminum oxyhydroxide can be proposed for use as a flame-retardant additive to polymers.

A detailed analysis of the dehydrogenation mechanism and reversibility of LiBH4 doped by as-derived Al (denoted Al*) from AlH3 was performed by thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), mass spectral analysis (MS), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The results show that the dehydrogenation of LiBH4/Al* is a five-step reaction: (1) LiBH4 + Al → LiH + AlB2 + “Li-Al-B-H” + B2H6 + H2; (2) the decomposition of “Li-Al-B-H” compounds liberating H2; (3) 2LiBH4 + Al → 2LiH + AlB2 + 3H2; (4) LiBH4 → LiH + B + 3/2H2; and (5) LiH + Al → LiAl + 1/2H2. Furthermore, the reversibility of the LiBH4/Al* composite is based on the following reaction: LiH + LiAl + AlB2 + 7/2H2 ↔ 2LiBH4 + 2Al. The extent of the dehydrogenation reaction between LiBH4 and Al* greatly depends on the precipitation and growth of reaction products (LiH, AlB2, and LiAl) on the surface of Al*. A passivation shell formed by these products on the Al* is the kinetic barrier to the dehydrogenation of the LiBH4/Al* composite.

ABSTRACTThe synthesis of mullite from kaolin clay and two precursors of aluminum: α-Al2O3 and Al(NO3)3 was investigated. In order to study the temperature effect, the system kaolin-α-Al2O3 was calcined in air in a range of 1200 to 1500°C, for 2 h. For the system kaolin-Al(NO3)3, the combustion method was employed, using urea as fuel, and calcined in air at 1500°C for 2 h. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy and particle size analysis in order to analyze and compare their morphology and structure. The crystallographic study revealed an incomplete reaction between the kaolin and the α-Al2O3. Nevertheless, in the system kaolin-Al(NO3)3, it was obtained mullite with high purity and trace amounts of cristobalite.

A detailed analysis of the dehydrogenation mechanism and reversibility of LiBH4 doped by active Al* derived from AlH3 was performed by thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), mass spectral analysis (MS), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The results show that the dehydrogenation of LiBH4/Al* is a five-step reaction: (1) LiBH4 + Al → LiH + AlB2 + “Li-Al-B-H” + B2H6 + H2; (2) the decomposition of "Li-Al-B-H" compounds liberating H2; (3) 2LiBH4 + Al → 2LiH + AlB2 + 3H2; (4) LiBH4 → LiH + B + 3/2H2; (5) LiH + Al → LiAl + 1/2H2. And the reversibility of LiBH4/Al* composite is based on equation as follows: LiH + LiAl + AlB2 + 7/2H2 ↔ 2LiBH4 + 2Al. The extent of dehydrogenation reaction between LiBH4 and Al* greatly depends on the precipitation and growth of reaction products (LiH, AlB2 and LiAl, etc.) on the surface of Al*. A passivation shell of Al* formed by these products is the kinetic barrier to the dehydrogenation of LiBH4/Al* composite.

This paper presents a study of soils structure and composition using up to date technique, such as scanning electronic microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, as well as some other characterization methods. It was shown that soil particles have porous structure and dimensions in the range from several millimeters to several hundreds of nanometers and consist of different minerals such as kaolin, quartz and feldspate.

Melamine formaldehyde composites have been synthesized with chlorides and micro- and nanoparticles of transition metals (Co, Ni, Cu) entered into polymer during the polycondensation of melamine with formaldehyde. The received composites were studied by the X-ray diffraction and scanning electronic microscopy and applied as catalysts to cathode activation in cyclohexanone electrohydrogenation. For composites of MF+MCl2 it was established higher catalytic activity than for МF+М0.

In order to investigate the ratio of Zn/Y on as-cast Mg-4Zn-xY (x=1, 2, 3 in wt. %), microstructure and mechanical properties are analyzed by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectrum (EDS) and tensile testing. The results indicate that with the decrease of the ratio of Zn/Y, microstructures are refined more greatly and the spheroidization and uniformity coefficient are improved obviously, and the morphologies of second phases are changed from diversity to unity, resulting in an improvement of mechanical properties of alloys.

The miscibility of chitosan / methylcellulose (CH/MC) blends was studied by FT IR, wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). The regular changes of FT IR and WAXD spectra of CH/MC blend powder indicated the miscibility of the blends. TGA curves and SEM images of cross-sections of the blends films showed partly miscibility.

In the paper, ampicillin-loaded alginate(ALG) microspheres covered with chitosan (CS) were firstly prepared by emulsification/internal gelation method. These microspheres were mixed with n-HA/CS composite and then were fabricated into porous scaffold carrying micropheres by gas-foaming together with phase-separation. their properties were characterized by the methods of scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and inversed microscope. The drug releasing rate and entrapment efficiency were tested by spectrophotometry at 203 nm. The results show that the porous scaffold carrying microspheres has good property of slow drug releasing rate. The research will offer a new kind of degradable porous scaffold with good property of controlled drug release for bone or cartilage repairing.
