sol–gel auto-combustion is a unique combination of the combustion and the chemical gelation processes. in this work, nanosize (d) powders with compositions of znfe2o4 were synthesized by sol–gel combustion method. the puffy, porous brown powders as-combusted was calcined at the temperature of 750–1000◦c for 4 h. these powders are characterized by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microsco...

A comparing study on formation and microstructure features of aluminum titanate is investigated through both solid-state and sol-gel processes. Aluminum titanate formed by firing at 1350ºC and 1450ºC for 4h in solid-state process. In the sol-gel process formation of submicron sized particles is followed by addition of sucrose into the transparent sol. XRD analysis was confirmed the formation of...

In chemical analysis and electrochemical catalysis modified electrodes have been used in a wide range. In addition to the several methods of electrode modification reported in literature, the sol-gel route offers a possibility of preparing ceramic like films under rather mild conditions. This enhances the possibility of incorporation of temperature sensitive particles such as enzymes, microorga...

Homogeneous distribution of mullite in the matrix of alumina can be obtained through sol-gel method. In this work, nanopowder of alumina-mullite composite was synthesized with high homogeneity and high purity. So aluminum chloride hexahydrate and tetraethyl orthosilicate were used instead of alumina or mullite nanopowder. Studying the simultaneouse thermal analysis (STA) of mullite precursor re...

Active protein micropatterns and microarrays made by selective localization are popular candidates for medical diagnostics, such as biosensors, bioMEMS, and basic protein studies. In this paper, we present a simple fabrication process of thick (approximately 20 microm) protein micropatterning using capillary force lithography with bifunctional sol-gel hybrid materials. Because bifunctional sol-...

A wide variety of enhanced and modified sol-gel bulk and thin film processes for the development of sensors and biosensors have been witnessed in the last two decades. The porous silica glass material prepared by the sol-gel process is a promising host matrix for the encapsulation of various biomolecules viz. proteins, antibodies, enzymes. The entrapped biomolecules have shown to retain their f...
