copper oxide nanostructures have been successfully synthesized via one-step solid-state thermolysis of two metal-organic frameworks, [cu3(btc)2] (1) and [cu(tpa).(dmf)] (2), (btc = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate, tpa = therephtalic acid = 1,4-benzendicarboxylic acid and dmf = dimethyl formamide) under air atmosphere at 400,  500, and 600°c. it has also been found that the reaction temperature pla...

Vapor-phase fabrication of the metal–organic framework ZIF-8 through conversion precursors prepared by physical, atomic, and molecular layer deposition.

Thermal decompositions of the precursors for chemical solution deposition of 0.7 Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.3 PbTiO3 thin films were studied. The precursors were prepared from lead acetate or acetylacetone-modified lead acetate by diol-based route, and dried at 100 C. Thermal decompositions of the PT, PMN and PMN-PT precursors in air occur stepwise. Between room temperature and approximately 200 C the ...

Measurements of ambient organic aerosol indicate that a substantial fraction is highly oxidized and low in volatility, but this fraction is generally not reproduced well in either laboratory studies or models. Here we describe a new approach for constraining the viable precursors and formation pathways of highly oxidized organic aerosol, by starting with the oxidized product and considering the...

ticl4, ammonia, inorganic salts as raw material, nanometer composite-crystal tio2 powders were synthesized by two-step chemical method. precursors were crystallized with different phase and stable composite-crystal tio2 with anatase and rutile phase was prepared at low temperature. quantitative control of crystal phase was realized. remarkable factors including reaction ph value, reaction time,...

Precursors to Group II metal aluminates (MAI2O4 , M=Mg, Ca, Ba, Sr) are synthesized from inexpensive starting materials including Group II metal oxides/hydroxides, Al(OH)3 , triethanolamine (TEA) and ethylene glycol, in a one-pot synthesis process. The precursors are soluble in common organic solvents and can be handled in moist air for a reasonable period of time. On pyrolysis in air to 1200 °...

We report simultaneous measurements of volatile organic compound (VOC) mixing ratios including C6 to C8 aromatics, isoprene, monoterpenes, acetone and organic aerosol mass loadings at a rural location in southwestern Ontario, Canada by Proton-Transfer-Reaction Mass Spectrometry (PTR-MS) and Aerosol Mass Spectrometry (AMS), respectively. During the three-week-long Border Air Quality and Meteorol...
