the austenitic stainless steel (ss) has been used as a material for  building  ultra  high  vacuum  (uhv)  chamber.  recently significant  efforts  have  been  concerned  a  comparing  the standard  cleaned  for  ultra  high  vacuum,  passivity  stainless. in  this work austenitic  nanocomposites were  synthesize by sol-  gel method. the morphologies  and  topographies  of  the samples  have  b...

the dried nitrate-urea gels exhibit the combination of autoicatatric combustion behavior and ultrasonic, whichcan be used to synthesize the nanocatalyst ferrite powders. cu and ni unites nanocatalyst powders sithcomposition of caned], and nife204 were synthesized by a sol-gel auto catalnic combustion process. themolar ratio between metal ions and urea was 11.2. the sob gel process was done at 8...

The implications of organically-modified silica-based materials in electrochemical science is reviewed along with some selected recent trends in the field of functionalized and sol–gel silica electrochemistry. These recent trends include the electro-assisted generation of organosilica films on solid electrode surfaces, the preparation and applications of sol–gel derived composite (carbon, gold,...

We report on the fabrication and characterization of thick UV-patternable hybrid sol-gel films by spin coating using a modified sol-gel process. Thick coating of 25 microns with crack-free surface can be produced by one spin coating step. Thick layers of more than 100 μm can be obtained with a multi-coating process. Characterization using different techniques including optical microscope and at...

We demonstrate a replica-molding method for submicron patterning of a low-index sol–gel nanoporous glass for the purpose of fabricating large-area ( 80 cm) label-free photonic crystal optical biosensors. Scanning electron micrographs show the sol–gel exhibited minimal shrinkage and good substrate adhesion and depict precise and uniform pattern transfer over the fabricated area within the limits...

As an attractive alternative to organic and silica monoliths, hybrid organic-inorganic monolith somewhat combines the advantages of them, such as high surface area, excellent mechanical strength, and thermal stability. We have reviewed the preparation and application of hybrid monoliths in 2011 and 2013. The preparation approaches have been mainly summarized into three categories: (1) common so...

Polvos cerámicos de Sm2O3 dopados y mezclados con europio se obtuvieron a partir la formación cloruros samario través ruta sol-gel citrato. Este trabajo reporta influencia los iones en las propiedades estructurales luminiscentes cerámicas Sm2O3:Eu3+ (coordenadas CIE) variando el Eu3+ 10 50% mol. Las características químicas, morfológicas fueron establecidas por FTIR XRD, revelando presencia ban...

The preparation and characterization of rubber based nanocomposites prepared by in situ generation of inorganic oxides by means of the hydrolytic sol– gel process are reviewed in the present chapter. The sol–gel approach has been applied to several rubber matrices to prepare reinforced vulcanized and unvulcanized rubbers. Several synthetic procedures are presented while the most investigated fi...

high purity lead titanate nanopowders in tetragonal form have been successfully prepared bycitric acid gel method using lead nitrate and tetra-n-butyl titanate as pb and ti sourcesrespectively and citric acid as complexing reagent. the precursors were calcined at varioustemperatures ranging from 450 °c to 600 °c for 2 h. fourier transform infraredspectroscopy (ft-ir), x-ray diffraction (xrd) an...

Combination of the surfactant-free nonaqueous sol–gel approach with the microwave technique makes it possible to synthesize Fe3O4, CoFe2O4, MnFe2O4, and NiFe2O4 nanoparticles of about 5–6 nm and with high crystallinity and good morphological uniformity. The synthesis involves the reaction of metal acetates or acetylacetonates as precursors with benzyl alcohol at 170 C under microwave irradiatio...
