Abstract: Lead-containing glass borosilicate was synthesized by Sol-gel technique using metalalkoxids such as tetraethyleorthosilicate (TEOS), Al-sec-butoxide and trimethyl borate. The sol containing TEOS converts to gel during drop wise addition of Al-alkoxide while inorganic lead salt was added in the last stage of gelation to prepare the alcogels. The specimens were dried at room tempera...

In the present study, a new step-based photoreactor was presented to investigate the degradation of Acid Red 73 under visible light irradiation. Four N-TiO2-coated alumina foams prepared by the modified sol-gel process were arranged in each step as photocatalyst. The experimental design methodology was employed to assess the interaction between the operational parameters in the step-...

Spectrally resolved infrared stimulated vibrational echo spectroscopy is used to measure the fast dynamics of heme-bound CO in carbonmonoxy-myoglobin (MbCO) and -hemoglobin (HbCO) embedded in silica sol-gel glasses. On the time scale of approximately 100 fs to several picoseconds, the vibrational dephasing of the heme-bound CO is measurably slower for both MbCO and HbCO relative to that of aque...

cotio3-clay nano-composites were synthesized via a conventional sol-gel method; the gel was calcinated at 500 - 800°c for 2 hours. the presence of rhombohedra phase of cotio3 in clay matrix was confirmed by xrd, ftir, sem. cobalt titanate-clay nano-composites were prepared with 5-20%(w/w) by sol-gel method. the spectra results were investigated at 20% (w/w) concentration .the optimum condition ...

sol–gel chemistry is an efficient tool to control the morphology and reactivity of solids. drying is the crucial step due to the capillary forces exerted during the classic ambient drying process, which induces the collapse of the wet gel porosity. the use of n, n-dimethylformamide (dmf), a newly found dcca were found to be effective in the sol–gel synthesis of crack-free silica gel monolith fr...

in this research fe-tio2 nanocomposites with different molar ratios of fe/ti were prepared as nano-photocatalyst using a modified sol-gel process at ambient temperature. crystallographic properties of nanocomposites were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd). surface morphology and mean particle size of nanocomposites were specified by field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and ...

in recent years, using sol-gel procedure for the purpose of laboratory and industrial synthesis of nano-structures, and especially silica nano-particles, has been significantly increased. in this research, silica particles were synthesized by sol-gel procedure and their physical and chemical properties were studied by means of scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electron microscopy...

in this work firstly zno nanoparticles were synthesized via a simple precipitation method. at the second step titanium dioxide and silicon dioxide shell were synthesized on the core. for preparation zno-tio2-sio2 the sol product was calcinated at 500 ºc for 2h. properties of the product were examined by x-raydiffraction pattern (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and fourier transform inf...

the stabilized zirconia with different cu contents synthesized via sol-gel method. the samples were prepared by hydrolysis and condensation of orgnomatelic sol. after that the result gels were dried at 80 °c and then calcined at various temperatures.  ِ the differential thermal analysis (dta), x-ray diffraction (xrd), field emission scanning electronic microscopy (fesem) and transmission electro...

in this research, a sol gel autocaombustion route has been proposedto synthesize alumina-zirconia composite powders, usingammonium bicarbonate as a new fuel. then the effect of calcinationtemperature on phase transformation and crystallite sizes wasinvestigated. to characterize the products xrd, tem and betanalyses were used. xrd patterns of as-synthesized powder andcalcined powders at 1100 ◦c ...
