In this paper, BaLa‌xGdxFe12-2xO19 (x=0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8) were synthesized via sol-gel auto-combustion method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) of samples was represented that the bands at 400 and 500 cm-1 were related to the formation of hexaferrite phase. The (x-ray diffraction) XRD patterns were matched exactly with the structure of barium hexaferrite. (Field emission scanni...

highly sinterable alumina nano-powders have been synthesized by a sol-gel combustion method with glycine asfuel. the preparation involved the thermal decomposition of a chelating agent (fuel)-nitrate gel and theformation of amorphous precursors. the nanopowders calcined at 1100°c were characterized by x-ray powderdiffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). it was found that the ch...

Current study represents the effect of the size and synthesis method on the cation distribution of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles and on the magnetic properties. The nanoferrites have been synthesized through sol-gel auto-combustion method using metal nitrates as precursor and citrate as fuel. In order to obtain the fine and agglomerated-free particles, we have used salt-assisted combustion react...

The Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) combustion concept lacks direct ignition timing control, instead the auto ignition depends on the operating condition. Since auto ignition of a homogeneous mixture is very sensitive to operating conditions, a fast combustion timing control is necessary for reliable operation. Hence, feedback is needed and the crank angle of 50% burnt (CA50) has...

A versatile one-pot auto-combustion method for the synthesis of powders of iron-doped strontium titanate, SrTi1-xFexO3-δ, has been developed. The synthesis is optimised by the combined use of EDTA and citric acid as chelating agents, and an appropriate balance between fuel and oxidising elements in the reaction mixture. The method produces immediately an almost phase-pure perovskite oxide powde...

Nanocrystalline particles of barium hexaferrite has been prepared by the sol–gel auto- combustion method using iron and barium nitrate with a Ba:Fe molar ratio of 1:10. The effect of fuel such as citric acid and aspartic acid was investigated on the structure and magnetic properties of nanoparticles. The results revealed that the formation of barium hexaferritefine particles is influenced by mo...
