ZnO and Mn-ZnO nano powders were prepared by the sol-gel auto combustion method. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive analysis of X-ray (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Structural and morphological properties of nano particles were investigated and the average crystalline size of ZnO and Mn-doped ZnO was obtained 44 and 51 nm, respectively. ...

The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of pH on the synthesis of nanocrystallines cobalt ferrite by combination of sol- gel auto combustion and ultrasonic irradiation methods. Two different fuels, urea and thiourea, along with metal nitrates (oxidant) were used to prepare CoFe2O4 powders. The morphology of the resulting powders was investigated. The powders wer...

Abstract In this study, we presented two reliable methods, the sol–gel and autocombustion, to synthesis a high purity BiFeO 3 single phase with low calcination time using glycine as chelating agent. The glycine-autocombustion method produced either or concentrations of reactants (Bi(NO ) + Fe(NO ), while glycine-sol–gel delivered reactants. case tartaric acid urea agents, mixtures Bi 25 FeO 40 ...

OpenTuner can help users achieve better or more portable performance in their speci c domain through program autotuning. A key challenge for users seeking good autotuning performance in OpenTuner is selecting a search approach appropriate for problem. However, not only are current in-situ learning search approaches not robust enough to handle all search spaces, but there are also too many possi...

This paper reports the hydrolysis of several PBT materials (pigmented or not). Degradation was monitored by gel permeation chromatography (chain scission), DSC (crystalline morphology), tensile test (residual mechanical properties) and DVS (polymer-water interaction). The embrittlement comes from chain scission associated with a small chemicrystallization effect. Results lead to proposal kineti...

Cu substituted Ni0.5-xCuxZn0.5Fe2O4 (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2) samples is synthesized using the sol-gel auto-combustion process. They have a cubic spinel structure with crystallite size in range of 29.01–42.68 nm. The increment copper content increases DC conductivity. electrical resistivity decrease an increase temperature i.e. it has negative coefficient resistance similar to semiconduc...

The process of empirical autotuning results in the generation of many code variants which are tested, found to be suboptimal, and discarded. By retaining annotated performance profiles of each variant tested over the course of many autotuning runs of the same code across different hardware environments and different input datasets, we can apply machine learning algorithms to generate classifier...

The magnetic properties of copper ferrite (CuFe2O4) nanoparticles prepared via sol-gel auto combustion and facile solvothermal method are studied focusing on the effect of nanoparticle arrangement. Randomly oriented CuFe2O4 nanoparticles (NP) are obtained from the sol-gel auto combustion method, while the solvothermal method allows us to prepare iso-oriented uniform spherical ensembles of CuFe2...
