Hierarchical nanostructures of fluorinated and naked Ta2O5 single crystalline nanorods: hydrothermal preparation, formation mechanism and photocatalytic activity for H2 production.

چکیده
The hydrolysis of H(2)TaF(7) when it slowly forms via etching Ta powders with HF and H(2)O(2) under hydrothermal conditions produces hierarchical nanostructures of fluorinated and naked Ta(2)O(5) single-crystalline nanorods, which exhibit a far greater photocatalytic activity for H(2) production than commercial Ta(2)O(5) particles.

Effect of hydrothermal reaction temperature on the photocatalytic properties of CdWO4-RGO nanocomposites
Cadmium tungstate (CdWO4) nanorods and CdWO4-reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanocomposites have been prepared by the hydrothermal method at 140, 160 and 180 oC reaction temperatures. The synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared, photoluminescence spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. SEM image showed the pure...
متن کاملTemplate-free synthesis of 3D Nb(3)O(7)F hierarchical nanostructures and enhanced photocatalytic activities.
Single-crystalline niobium oxide fluoride (Nb(3)O(7)F) hierarchical nanostructures are firstly prepared via a facile hydrothermal method without using any template or surfactant. The results of scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy showed that the hierarchical morphology of Nb(3)O(7)F could be effectively controlled by adjusting the reaction time. Ultraviolet-visible...
متن کاملElectrochemical Preparation and Characterization of Mn5O8 Nanostructures
Electrochemical synthesis followed by heat-treatment is a facile and easy method for preparation of nanostructured metal oxides. Herein we report nanostructured Mn5O8 prepared through pulse cathodic deposition followed by heat-treatment for the first time. For the preparation of Mn5O8 nanorods, pulse cathodic electrodeposition was first done from 0.005M Mn(NO3)2 at the current density of 5 mA c...
متن کاملSelf-assembled 3D hierarchical sheaf-like Nb3O7(OH) nanostructures with enhanced photocatalytic activity.
Novel three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical Nb3O7(OH) nanostructures with a sheaf-like nanoarchitecture were fabricated for the first time by a hydrothermal process. Interestingly, the nanosheafs are composed of nanorods with an average diameter of about 25 nm. The as-prepared 3D hierarchical nanostructures possess a high surface area of 77 m(2) g(-1) with pore diameters of ca. 4.2-12.5 nm. A pos...
متن کاملA simple and safe method for preparation of Mg(OH)2 nanorods in ambient air
Magnesium hydroxide Mg(OH)2 nanorods with diameters of 90±10nm and lengths of more than 2μms were prepared by a simple route at ~75oC in ambient air. The approach is based on reaction of magnesium powder and de-ionized water without the use of any harmful, toxic or corrosive reagents. Characterization using X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows single crystalline structure of Mg(O...
