The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD） and magnetization measurement instrument. Lattice parameters and average crystalline size of the synthesized materials were calculated from the corresponding XRD patterns with the related software Jade.5. For samples of different pH values, only one phase was found when pH values were 7.0, 8.0 and 9.0. The sample with pH value of 7.0 exhibited the highest saturation magnetic induction, the lowest coercive force, and crystallized best. For samples of different R values with pH value of 7.0, only one phase was observed in all samples, and the sample with R value of 2.3 exhibited the highest saturation magnetic induction and the lowest coercive force. The composition has mainly afected the magnetic properties, and the saturation magnetic induction increases with the increase of the content of Zn （x）, but decreases when x is beyond 0.6. The trend of coercive force is on the contrary. However, no magnetism is exhibited when the x value is up to 0.8.展开更多

The emission and excitation spectra are similar to rare earth phosphate. Concentration quenching of the Sr3(PO4)2∶Ce, Tb emission intensity was not observed even when the Tb3+ increases to 0.05, while the maximum emission intensity appears when x=0.04 in M3-3x(PO4)2∶2xCe, xTb(M=Ca, Ba) emission spectrum.展开更多

The aim is to investigate the effect of p H values on the catalytic activity of La AlO3 catalysts in this reaction. The results showed that the co-precipitation pH value affected greatly on the formation of chemical species of precipitate precursors in the co-precipitation step, leading to different phases of the finally obtained LaAlO3 catalysts.When the co-precipitation pH value increased up to 8, the lanthanum-related phases such as La2 O3 and La(OH)3 were gradually formed as by-products, preventing the formation of LaAlO3 perovskite crystalline structure and facilitating the formation of oxygen vacancies on catalyst surface. However, at pH value of9 or higher, the lanthanum content in the precipitate precursor was increased greatly. Not LaAlO3 perovskite but lanthanum-related phases were developed as main phases, reducing their catalytic activities in this reaction. Among LaAlO3 catalysts, the one prepared at pH = 8 showed the highest C2 yield due to its well-developed oxygen vacancies and electrophilic lattice oxygen. Therefore, the co-precipitation pH value strongly affected the LaAlO3 catalyst activity in OCM reaction. A precious pH control should be required to prepare various perovskite catalysts for the OCM.展开更多

The effect of the precipitants on the catalytic performance, physical and chemical properties of Ni-CeO2 catalysts was investigated with the aid of X-ray diffraction （XRD）, Bmmaner-Emmett-Teller method （BET）, Fou- rier-transform infrared spectroscopy （FT-IR）, thermogravimetry （TG）, and H2-TPR characterizations. The Ni-CeO2 catalysts were exam- ined with respect to their catalytic performance for the reverse water-gas shift reaction, and their catalytic activities were ranked as： Ni-CeO2-CP （Na2CO3：NaOH=I：I）〉Ni-CeO2-CP（Na2CO3）〉Ni-CeO2-CP（NaOH）- Correlating to the characteristic results, it was found that the catalyst prepared by co-precipitation with mixed precipitant （Na2CO3：NaOH; 1：1 ratio） as precipitant hadthe most amount of oxygen vacancies accompanied with highly dispersed Ni particles, which made the corresponding Ni-CeO2-CP（Na2CO3：NaOH=I： 1） catalyst exhibit the highest catalytic activity. While the precipitant of Na2CO3 or NaOH resulted in less or no oxygen vacancies in Ni-CeO2 catalysts. As a result, Ni-CeO2-CP（Na2CO3） and Ni-CeO2-CP（NaOH） catalysts presented poor catalytic performance.展开更多

文摘Mn-Zn ferrites （Mn1-xZnxFe2O4） with different compositions were prepared by the coprecipitation method, and the influences of such synthesis conditions as pH value, composition and volume ratio （R） of the mixed solution and NH4HCO3 solution on their microstructures and magnetic properties were discussed. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD） and magnetization measurement instrument. Lattice parameters and average crystalline size of the synthesized materials were calculated from the corresponding XRD patterns with the related software Jade.5. For samples of different pH values, only one phase was found when pH values were 7.0, 8.0 and 9.0. The sample with pH value of 7.0 exhibited the highest saturation magnetic induction, the lowest coercive force, and crystallized best. For samples of different R values with pH value of 7.0, only one phase was observed in all samples, and the sample with R value of 2.3 exhibited the highest saturation magnetic induction and the lowest coercive force. The composition has mainly afected the magnetic properties, and the saturation magnetic induction increases with the increase of the content of Zn （x）, but decreases when x is beyond 0.6. The trend of coercive force is on the contrary. However, no magnetism is exhibited when the x value is up to 0.8.

文摘Homogeneous and dispersed Y3 Al5 O12（yttrium aluminum garnet,YAG） nanopowders were synthesized via a homogeneous co-precipitation method from the mixed solutions of yttrium nitrate,aluminum nitrate and a small amount of ammonium sulfate using hot urea as the precipitant.The method has the superiorities that co-precipitation of cations is ensured and continuous decomposition of the hot urea is achieved to obtain the narrow size distribution particles.The addition of small amount of ammonium sulfate surfactant,although has no influence on YAG garnet phase formation,has significant effect on dispersion,particles distribution and sinterability of the resultant YAG and Yb：YAG powders.Compared with the undoped sample,the green body of Yb：YAG doped with ammonium sulfate has higher total shrinkage,linear shrinkage rate and relative density through sintering at 1600 ℃.The resultant Yb：YAG powders can be sintered into transparent ceramics at 1700 ℃ through vacuum sintering.The influence of the sulfate ions on characteristics of the resultant powders was thoroughly studied.

文摘The M3-3x(PO4)2∶2xCe, xTb(M=Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) phosphors were prepared by coprecipitation in this paper. Their phase structures, morphologies and luminescent properties were investigated by X-ray diffractometer, field emission scanning electron microscopy and fluorospectrophotometer. The results indicate that the Ce3+ and Tb3+ enteres the host lattice because the XRD patterns of alkaline earth phosphate show no impurity phase, the SEM shows the spherical particles with an average size about 1 μm. The emission and excitation spectra are similar to rare earth phosphate. Concentration quenching of the Sr3(PO4)2∶Ce, Tb emission intensity was not observed even when the Tb3+ increases to 0.05, while the maximum emission intensity appears when x=0.04 in M3-3x(PO4)2∶2xCe, xTb(M=Ca, Ba) emission spectrum.

文摘Perovskite BiMnO_3 samples are successfully synthesized by the co-precipitation method at relatively low pressure and moderate temperature.The temperature dependences of resistivity are measured and systematically investigated.It is shown that the electrical resistivity increases sharply with the decrease of temperature above 210 K and the fitted results demonstrate that the thermally activated conduction model is the dominant conduction mechanism for the electron transport behaviors in this temperature region.A dual conducting mechanism,i.e.,the variable range hopping and thermal activated conduction,is suggested to be responsible for the transport behaviors of BiMnO_3 in the region of 180-200 K.Moreover,the resistivity increases slightly with the decrease of temperature below 180 K and the transport is governed by the variable range hopping mechanism.

文摘Oxidative coupling of methane(OCM) was conducted over LaAlO3X catalysts that were prepared by a coprecipitation method using different co-precipitation pH values(X = 6–10). The aim is to investigate the effect of p H values on the catalytic activity of La AlO3 catalysts in this reaction. The results showed that the co-precipitation pH value affected greatly on the formation of chemical species of precipitate precursors in the co-precipitation step, leading to different phases of the finally obtained LaAlO3 catalysts.When the co-precipitation pH value increased up to 8, the lanthanum-related phases such as La2 O3 and La(OH)3 were gradually formed as by-products, preventing the formation of LaAlO3 perovskite crystalline structure and facilitating the formation of oxygen vacancies on catalyst surface. However, at pH value of9 or higher, the lanthanum content in the precipitate precursor was increased greatly. Not LaAlO3 perovskite but lanthanum-related phases were developed as main phases, reducing their catalytic activities in this reaction. Among LaAlO3 catalysts, the one prepared at pH = 8 showed the highest C2 yield due to its well-developed oxygen vacancies and electrophilic lattice oxygen. Therefore, the co-precipitation pH value strongly affected the LaAlO3 catalyst activity in OCM reaction. A precious pH control should be required to prepare various perovskite catalysts for the OCM.

文摘A series of Ni-CeO2 catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation method with Na2CO3, NaOH, and mixed precipitant （Na2CO3：NaOH; 1：1 ratio） as precipitant, respectively. The effect of the precipitants on the catalytic performance, physical and chemical properties of Ni-CeO2 catalysts was investigated with the aid of X-ray diffraction （XRD）, Bmmaner-Emmett-Teller method （BET）, Fou- rier-transform infrared spectroscopy （FT-IR）, thermogravimetry （TG）, and H2-TPR characterizations. The Ni-CeO2 catalysts were exam- ined with respect to their catalytic performance for the reverse water-gas shift reaction, and their catalytic activities were ranked as： Ni-CeO2-CP （Na2CO3：NaOH=I：I）〉Ni-CeO2-CP（Na2CO3）〉Ni-CeO2-CP（NaOH）- Correlating to the characteristic results, it was found that the catalyst prepared by co-precipitation with mixed precipitant （Na2CO3：NaOH; 1：1 ratio） as precipitant hadthe most amount of oxygen vacancies accompanied with highly dispersed Ni particles, which made the corresponding Ni-CeO2-CP（Na2CO3：NaOH=I： 1） catalyst exhibit the highest catalytic activity. While the precipitant of Na2CO3 or NaOH resulted in less or no oxygen vacancies in Ni-CeO2 catalysts. As a result, Ni-CeO2-CP（Na2CO3） and Ni-CeO2-CP（NaOH） catalysts presented poor catalytic performance.

文摘Eu3＋ doped Gd2WO6 and Gd2（WO4）3 nanophosphors with different concentrations were prepared via a co-precipitation method. The structure and morphology of the nanocrystal samples were characterized by using X-ray diffraction （XRD） and field emission scanning electron microscopy （FE-SEM）, respectively. The emission spectra and excitation spectra of samples were measured. J-O parameters and quantum efficiencies of Eu3＋ 5D0 energy level were calculated, and the concentration quenching of Eu3＋ luminescence in different matrixes were studied. The results indicated that effective Eu3＋：5D0-7F2 red luminescence could be achieved while excited by 395 nm near-UV light and 465 nm blue light in Gd2WO6 host, which was similar to the familiar Gd2（WO4）3：Eu. Therefore, the Gd2WO6：Eu red phosphors might have a potential application for white LED.

文摘A series of Y1_xPO4：xTb3＋ （x=0.005-0.1） phosphors were successfully fabricated by using co-precipitation method with NHzH2PO4 as phosphorus source. The structure and morphology characterization of the luminescent material was investigated with X-ray powder diffraction （XRD） and field emission scanning electron microscopy （FESEM）. The XRD patterns indicated that the samples belonged to tetragonal phase. Luminescence properties were discussed by measuring the excitation and emission spectra. The phosphor could be excited by UV light （340-390 nm） and emitted green light, with the emission peaks located at 491 （5Da→7F6）, 550 （SD4→7Fs）, 589 （5D4→7F4） and 624 nm （SD4→TF3）. In addition, the pH value and activator concentration had great effects on the emission intensity. The results illuminated that this phosphor could be used for UV based white light emitting diodes and co-precipitation method could be used to prepare better appearance phosphor.
