Lanthanum-doped lead zirconate titanate (PLZT) powders were synthesized using thehydrothermal method. The influence of pH, reaction temperature and time, lanthanum concentration on the formation and characteristics of PLZT were investigated. Obtained powders were investigated using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques and a dielectric analyzer. The results showed that           Pb1-xLax(Zr0.65Ti0.35)O3 with x= 0.0 – 0.1 were well formed under conditions: pH≥13, reaction time of 12hrs, reaction temperature of 180oC. Dielectric constant of PLZT is higher than PZT. The grain size of the PLZT is found to be 1–3.5 µm.

The 0.98BaTiO3-0.02Ba (Mg1/3Nb2/3) O3ceramics has been synthesized through a conventional mixed-oxide by using BT nanopowder and BMN micropowder. The phase purity of the powders and the ceramics was examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The 0.98BT-0.02BMN powders were sintered to 92% of the theoretical density at a temperature of 1300 °C for 2 h. The microstructure of the sintered surface was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The dielectric constant (εr) and loss factor (tanδ) of the sintered pellets at Curie temperture were 3000 and 0.015, respectively.

Combustion reaction between silicon powders and nitrogen in transport bed was studied. The reaction temperature ranged from 1523 to 1653 K, and the reaction time ranged from 0 to 2.7 min. The phase compositions, morphologies and chemical composition of the products were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and O/N determinater, respectively. The experimental results showed, in the case of silicon powders with particle size of 2.2 μm, the conversion rate of silicon was 61.9% at reaction temperature of 1653 K and reaction time of 2.7min, and the products mainly comprised amorphous silicon nitride powders.

AbstractLead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) powders have been synthesized by a hydrothermal method at the processing temperatures of 120-220 °C for 1.5-50 hours, based on the reaction of Pb(CH3COOH)2·3H2O, ZrOCl2·8H2O, Ti(C4H9O)4 and KOH. Hydrothermally treated PZT powders were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) techniques respectively. The influences of hydrothermal synthesize conditions on the crystalline structure and the morphology of PZT particles were investigated. Crystallized PZT powders could be synthesized at the KOH concentration of >2.5 mol/l.

The exchange of chloride ion by phosphate ions in [Zn-Al-Cl] layered double hydroxide was investigated using X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. The effects of the pH of the solution containing the phosphate ions on the ion exchange was studied. The best sample in terms of crystallinity, was obtained at pH 8. This sample was further characterized by scanning electron microscopy and microanalysis.

The results of refinement show that four-layered Aurivillius phase formed has orthorhombic symmetry with <em>A2<sub>1</sub>am</em> space group. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) shows the plate like morphology that are characteristic of Aurivillius compound. Dielectric constant of the samples show increasing value as increasing of Mn<sup>4+</sup> concentration.</p>

By using mixture solution method, Barium titanate/polyimide(BT/PI) composite film was prepared. Influence of different size and filling quantity of BT particles were investigated. The microstructure and properties of the products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and other analysis methods. The results show that when BT nanoparticles are used, the BT/PI film has better comprehensive performance. As the filling quantity of BT particles increases, the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of BT/PI composite film increase, and the dielectric strength is reduced.

Calcium is an important element in the growth and development of plants and one form of calcium is calcium oxalate. Calcium oxalate has been found in leaf seed, stem material plant tissue culture, fungi and lichen using one or more of the following methods—polarized light microscopy (PLM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffraction.Two methods are presented here for qualitatively estimating calcium oxalate in dried or fixed tobacco (Nicotiana) leaf from different stalk positions using PLM. SEM, coupled with energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDS), and powder x-ray diffraction were used to verify that the crystals observed in the dried leaf with PLM were calcium oxalate.

Gallstones contain precipitated cholesterol, calcium salts, and proteins. Calcium (Ca) bilirubinate, palmitate, phosphate, and carbonate occurring in gallstones have variable morphologies but characteristic windowless energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) spectra. Previous studies of gallstone microstructure and composition using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with EDX have been limited to dehydrated samples. In this state, Ca bilirubinates appear as either glassy masses, which predominate in black pigment stones, or as clusters, which are found mostly in cholesterol gallstones. The three polymorphs of Ca carbonate, calcite, vaterite, and aragonite, have been identified in gallstones by x-ray diffraction, however; the morphologies of these crystals vary in the literature. The purpose of this experiment was to study fresh gallstones by environmental SEM (ESEM) to determine if dehydration affects gallstone Ca salt morphology.Gallstones and bile were obtained fresh at cholecystectomy from 6 patients. To prevent dehydration, stones were stored in bile at 37°C. All samples were studied within 4 days of procurement.
