recently, the al2o3–tio2–zro2 system has found valuable applications, particularly, as a support for nox storage–reduction (nsr) catalysts. nanocomposite powders were prepared from the co-precipitation method in inorganic precursors. the behaviors of mixed oxide nanoparticles under ultrasonic irradiation, such as dispersion, and crushing were studied. phase transformations, crystallite size, an...

ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized via novel Sol-gel route. The effects of pH variation as well as ageing were studied. The nanoparticles were synthesized with two different pH levels viz. pH 7 and pH 10. It was found that the size of the nanoparticles increased from 19 to 39.6 nm with increase in pH level from 7 to 10. Further the effect of ageing on the ZnO nanoparticles was studied. It was f...

A single and self-contained method for determining the crystallite-size distribution and shape from experimental x-ray line profile data is presented. We have shown that the crystallite-size distribution can be determined without assuming a functional form for the size distribution, determining instead the size distribution with the least assumptions by applying the Bayesian/MaxEnt method. The ...

The influence of crystallite size on the adsorption reactivity of phosphate on 2-line to 6-line ferrihydrites was investigated by combining adsorption experiments, structure and surface analysis, and spectroscopic analysis. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the ferrihydrite samples possessed a similar fundamental structure with a crystallite size var...

In this work, the relationship between cellulose crystallinity, the influence of extractive content on lignocellulosic fiber degradation, the correlation between chemical composition and the physical properties of ten types of natural fibers were investigated by FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetry techniques. The results showed that higher extractive contents associated wi...

synthetic hydroxyapatite (ha) is the most helpful because of its similarity to natural bone in both crystalline structure and chemical composition. recently, fluoridated hydroxyapatite (fha) has been developed in dental and orthopedic application because it has lower solubility than pure ha, while maintaining the comparable bioactivity and biocompatibility. the aim of this study was to synthesi...

-Ion-exchange isotherms between hydrotalcite-like compounds (HT) of the NO3-, CI-, and SO4forms and F , 0% Br , I , OH-, SO42-, CO3 z-, and Naphthol Yellow S (NYS 2-) ions were determined, and the spacing and the width of the 003 reflection were measured as a function of HT composition. The ion-exchange equilibrium constant for HTs of monovalent anions are in the sequence OH> F > Cl > Br> NO3> ...

The effects of plastic deformation by ball milling on the structure of a partly amorphousAl87Ni8La5alloy were investigated by X-ray diffractometry. Lattice parameter, crystallite size and lattice strain of the fcc-Al precipitates were determined by Rietveld refinement, doubleVoigt approach and Williamson-Hall plots. The changes in lattice parameter of fcc-Al nanoprecipitates during ball milling...
