high purity lead titanate nanopowders in tetragonal form have been successfully prepared bycitric acid gel method using lead nitrate and tetra-n-butyl titanate as pb and ti sourcesrespectively and citric acid as complexing reagent. the precursors were calcined at varioustemperatures ranging from 450 °c to 600 °c for 2 h. fourier transform infraredspectroscopy (ft-ir), x-ray diffraction (xrd) an...

to improve the corrosion protection of copper metal, 0.01m concentration of 1h-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (tat) was incorporated into the hybrid sol-gel monolayers containing 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (gptms) and tetraethoxysilane (teos). it was further subjected to hydrolysis and condensation reaction to form a sol-gel matrix. the tat-doped hybrid sol-gel coating was applied over the coppe...

preparation and characterization of thermoresponsive in-situ forming poloxamer hydrogel for controlled release of nile red-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles. nanoparticles (nps) are cleared rapidly from systemic circulation and do not provide sustained action in most cases. to solve this problem, this investigation introduces an erodible in-situ forming gel system as potential vehicles for prolo...

zinc oxide (zno) nanopowders were synthesized by the sol–gel method from an ethanol solution of zinc sulfate heptahydrate in the presence of diethylene glycol surfactant. detailed structural and microstructural investigations were carried out using x-ray diffraction (xrd), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (hrtem), field emission scanning electron microscopy (fe-sem), fourier tra...

mntio3-zeolite-y nanocomposites were synthesized with 5-10-20% (w/w) of mntio3 by stearic acid gel method. then, the gels were calcined at 900 °c for 4 hours and the resulted spectra were investigated at 20% (w/w) concentration. also, the presence of rhombohedral phase of mntio3 in zeolite-y matrix was confirmed by xrd, sem, edx and bet. the vsm results showed the antiferromagnetic properties f...

highly sinterable alumina nano-powders have been synthesized by a sol-gel combustion method with glycine asfuel. the preparation involved the thermal decomposition of a chelating agent (fuel)-nitrate gel and theformation of amorphous precursors. the nanopowders calcined at 1100°c were characterized by x-ray powderdiffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). it was found that the ch...

nanocrystalline particles of barium hexaferrite has been prepared by the sol–gel auto- combustion method using iron and barium nitrate with a ba:fe molar ratio of 1:10. the effect of fuel such as citric acid and aspartic acid was investigated on the structure and magnetic properties of nanoparticles. the results revealed that the formation of barium hexaferritefine particles is influenced by mo...
