aluminum sulfate nano structures have been prepared by solution combustion synthesis using aluminum nitrate nonahydrate (al(no3)3.9h2o) and ammonium sulfate ((nh4)2so4). the resultant aluminum sulfate nano structures were calcined at different temperatures to study thermal  decomposition of aluminum sulfate. the crystallinity and phase of  the as-synthesized and calcined samples were characteri...

Nano-sized particles of ceria with high surface area were processed by solution combustion synthesis (SCS) and their catalytic activity towards combustion of carbonaceous materials was compared with that obtained by simple thermal decomposition of cerium nitrate, exhibiting the same specific surface area. These two kinds of ceria powders were tested, by DTA and temperature programmed combustion...

Tungsten oxide (WO3) and tungsten oxide hydrate (WO3.H2O) nanoparticles were synthesized via microwave-assisted solution combustion in comparison with the acidic precipitation method. Oxalic acid was used as a surfactant and forming agent in the acidic precipitation method. In addition to oxalic acid, glycine and citric acid were also used as fuels in the microw...

the aluminum oxide materials are widely used in ceramics, refractories and abrasives due to their hardness, chemical inertness, high melting point, non-volatility and resistance to oxidation and corrosion. the paper describes work done on synthesis of α-alumina by using the simple, non-expensive solution combustion method using glycine as fuel.aluminum oxide (al2o3) nanoparticles were synthesiz...

agal2o3 nanocomposite were synthesized by solution combustion technique using ammonium carbonate as a new fuel under simultaneous combustion of alumina and silver particles condition. samples prepared with different amount of silver, were characterized by xrd, bet, sem and optical absorption measurements. xrd analysis was used to determine the change in phase and size of the synthesized nanopar...

Combustion synthesis is a special thermophysico-chemical process applied for production of intermetallic compounds. In the present work, a reaction–diffusion numerical model was developed to analyze the combustion synthesis of aluminide intermetallics by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis process. In order to verify the reliability of the numerical model, an experimental setup was desi...
