Five new types of microporous beryllophosphates were hydrothermally synthesized using BeO-P2O5-R-MCl (or MCl2)-H2O, R being cyclohexylamine (CHA), pyrrolidine, 1-butylamine or triethylamine, M alkali or alkali earth cation. X-Ray diffraction patterns (XRD), infrared (IR), TG-DT and elemental analysis show that the crystalline beryllophosphates have novel, unique framework structures, composed from basic units of tetrahedral PO4 and BeO4. These materials exhibit zeolite-like adsorption and ion-exchange properties. Factors affecting the product crystallization (as e.g. pH), type of cation and composition of reaction mixture are discussed.

We describe the synthesis and characterization of srilankite (Ti2ZrO6) nanowires. The nanowires are produced via hydrothermal synthesis with a TiO2/ZrO2 mixture under alkaline conditions. The zirconium titanate nanowires have median diameters of 60 nm and median lengths of 800 nm with the 〈022〉 axis along the length of the nanowire. Electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and electron diffraction are used to characterize the phases and compare nanowires produced with varying molar ratios of Ti and Zr. Electron diffraction patterns produced from single nanowires show highly crystalline nanowires displaying a compositional-ordering superlattice structure with Zr concentrated in bands within the crystal structure. This is in contrast to naturally occurring bulk srilankite where Zr and Ti are randomly substituted within the crystal lattice. Streaking is observed in the electron diffraction patterns suggesting short-range ordering within the superlattice structure.

Metal cinnamate monohydrazinates of the formula M(cin)2N2H4, where M= Co or Zn, nickel crotante monohydrazinate monohydrate Ni(crot)2N2H4.H2O, metal cinnamate and crotonate dihydrazinates M(cin)2(N2H4)2 Where M = Co, Ni, Zn or Cd , M(crot)2(N2H4)2 Where M = Co or Ni and cadmium crotante dihydrazinate monohydrate Cd(crot)2(N2H4)2.H2O have been prepared and characterized by spectral, thermal and X-ray diffraction studies. Electronic spectra indicate that the cobalt and nickel complexes are high-spin octahedral complexes. The IR data show that the binding of hydrazine and the unsaturated carboxylate anion to the metal ion is bidentate. TG-DTA studies show that metal complexes undergo decomposition through metal carboxylate intermediate to give respective metal oxide as the final product. Xray powder diffraction patterns of the complexes indicate isomorphism among them.

CoMn2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized by reverse micelle processing from the mixed precursor (consisting of Co (NO3)2 ·6H2O and MnCl2·4H2O). The CoMn2O4 was prepared by mixing the aqueous solution at a molar ratio of Co : Mn = 1 : 2. The synthesized powders were calcined at 600°C for 2h. The average size and distribution of synthesized powders were in the range of 10-20nm and narrow, respectively. The average size of the synthesized powders increased with increasing water to surfactant molar ratio. The XRD diffraction patterns show that the phase of CoMn2O4 was spinel (JCPDS no.77-0471). The synthesized and calcined powders were characterized by thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimeter (TG-DSC), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The magnetic property of the powder was measured by Vibrating Sample Magneto-meter (VSM) at 298K. The effect of synthesis parameter, such as the molar ratio of water to surfactant, is discussed.

Two different morphologies of MoS2 (short and long sheets) were utilized to elucidate the intercalation mechanism of 1,2,3,4 tetrahydroquinoline (THQ). MoS2 (short sheets) and molybdenite (MB) (long sheets) were exfoliated and restacked in the presence of THQ. The x-ray diffraction patterns of both samples show a new reflection in the 001 plane, which implies a lowering of symmetry and corresponds to an expansion of the layers by approximately 12.3 Å. In the MoS2-THQ sample, 80% of the MoS2 was intercalated and 20% remained stacked. In the MB-THQ sample, 30% of MB was intercalated while 70% remained stacked. X-ray absorption structure (XAS) studies showed changes in atomic geometry and coordination. The x-ray absorption near-edge spectra showed shifts in the geometry of the intercalated MoS2 and MB sample compared to the unintercalated samples. Extended x-ray absorption fine structure studies showed lower coordination numbers compared to the untreated samples. Infrared spectroscopy characterization of these same samples suggests intercalation and partial dehydrogenation of the THQ.

The lamellar matrix of VOPO4?2H2O was used as the host species to prepare a VOPO4-1,3-diaminopropane coordination compound. The oxovanadium matrix and the synthesized hybrid were characterized by elemental analysis, infared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, X-ray diffractometry and SEM microscopy. The elemental analysis results, as well as the X-ray diffraction patterns and quantum chemical calculations, strongly suggest that the synthesized matrix is an equimolar (1:1) mixture of two compounds with the formulas VOPO4?[H 2N-(CH2)3-NH2] and VOPO4?[H2N-(CH2)3-NH2]0.5. The SEM micrographs obtained for the VOPO4- diaminopropane hybrid matrix show that the microstructure of VOPO4?2H2O is changed after reaction, with an overall exfoliation of the oxovanadium matrix.

The synthesis and characterization of Ti and TiN thin films of different thicknesses was carried out on a martensitic stainless steel AISI 410 substrate used for tool manufacturing. The mechanical parameters between the interacting surfaces such as thickness, adhesion and hardness were measured. By means of the scanning electron microscope (SEM) the superficial morphology of the Ti/TiN interface was observed, finding that the growth was of columnar grains and by means of EDAX the existence of titanium was verified.  Using X-ray diffraction (XRD) it was possible to observe the presence of residual stresses (~ -3.1 GPa) due to the different crystalline phases in the coating. Under X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) it was possible to observe the molecular chemical composition of the coating surface, being Ti-N, Ti-N-O and Ti-O the predominant ones.

Atrazine (ATZ) is an herbicide which is applied to the soil, and its mechanism of action involves the inhibition of photosynthesis. One of its main functions is to control the appearance of weeds in crops, primarily in corn, sorghum, sugar cane, and wheat; however, it is very toxic for numerous species, including humans. Therefore, this work deals with the adsorption of ATZ from aqueous solutions using nanocomposite materials, synthesized with two different types of organo-modified clays. Those were obtained by the free radical polymerization of 4-vinylpyridine (4VP) and acrylamide (AAm) in different stoichiometric ratios, using tetrabutylphosphonium persulfate (TBPPS) as a radical initiator and N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (BIS) as cross-linking agent. The structural, morphological, and textural characteristics of clays, copolymers, and nanocomposites were determined through different analytical and instrumental techniques, i.e., X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Adsorption kinetics experiments of ATZ were determined with the modified and synthesized materials, and the effect of the ratio between 4VP and AAm moieties on the removal capacities of the obtained nanocomposites was evaluated. Finally, from these sets of experiments, it was demonstrated that the synthesized nanocomposites with higher molar fractions of 4VP obtained the highest removal percentages of ATZ.

AbstractThe non-centrosymmetric scandium borate ScB6O9(OH)3 was obtained through a high-pressure/high-temperature experiment at 6 GPa and 1473 K. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that the structure is isotypic to InB6O9(OH)3 containing borate triple layers separated by scandium layers. The compound crystallizes in the space group Fdd2 with the lattice parameters a = 38.935(4), b = 4.4136(4), and c = 7.6342(6) Å. Powder X-ray diffraction and vibrational spectroscopy were used to further characterize the compound and verify the proposed structure solution.
