Ex-situ sensitization of ordered TiO2 nanotubes with CdS quantum dots
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
Ordered titania nanotubes (pore diameter approximate to 90 nm and wall thickness approximate to 10 nm) were obtained by the anodization technique and used for the ex-situ deposition of cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CdS ...
Comparative study of CeO2 nanopowders obtained by the hydrothermal method from various precursors
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
The effects of common precursors used in the synthesis of CeO2 nanopowders were investigated, and the structural and spectral properties of the resulting products were compared. Two cerium (III) salts, i.e., Ce(NO3)(3)center ...
Optimized preparation of alumina based fillers for tuning composite properties
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Alumina based particles were prepared from aluminium chloride hydroxide as starting material by sol-gel technique. One series of particles was doped with ferrous oxide. Both series of particles were calcinated at three ...
Absorption boost of TiO2 nanotubes by doping with N and sensitization with CdS quantum dots
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
A process of obtaining N-doped TiO2 nanotubes sensitized by CdS nanoparticles is presented, including detailed characterizations performed along the synthesis. Transparent TiO2 films consisting of nanotubes, 2.5 mu m long ...
Spherical assemblies of titania nanotubes generated through aerosol processing
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
We report on the possibility to build hierarchically organized three-dimensional (3D) titania spherical particles having high surface-to-volume-ratio, by aerosol processing of nanotubular building blocks. Morphology and ...
The influence of fluorine doping on the structural and electrical properties of the LiFePO4 powder
(Elsevier, 2017)
Low intrinsic electronic conductivity is the main disadvantage of LiFePO4 when used as a cathode material in lithium ion batteries. The paper offers experimental proofs of the theoretical prediction that fluorine doping ...
Preparation of low cost alumina nanofibers via electrospinning of aluminium chloride hydroxide/poly (vinyl alcohol) solution
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Alumina nanofibers are very suitable materials for use as reinforcement in a great variety of high performance composite materials. Nanosized alumina fibers were prepared from the aluminum chloride hydroxide/poly (vinyl ...
Conventional and spark-plasma sintering of cordierite powders synthesized by sol-gel methods
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Cordierite powders synthesized by colloidal and alkoxide sol-gel methods were conventionally and spark-plasma sintered. The powders for the sintering investigations were obtained by calcination of the gels at a temperature ...
Mg/Cu co-substituted hydroxyapatite – Biocompatibility, mechanical properties and antimicrobial activity
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
The aim of this study was to improve the mechanical properties and to optimize antimicrobial activity of hydroxyapatite (HAP) by simultaneous doping with Mg and Cu ions in order to obtain material that would be able to ...
Core-shell superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle (SPION) clusters: TEM micrograph analysis, particle design and shape analysis
(Elsevier, 2016)
For the first time, particle shape analysis of silica coated iron oxide (maghemite/magnetite) nanoparticle clusters (core-shell nanostructures) is discussed using computational methods. We analyzed three samples of core-shell ...
