By use of azeotropic distillation processing, chemical coprecipitation precursor was obtained. Phase transformation of the precursor was observed at the temperature of 593.81 ℃ and 1 234.56 ℃ respectively with DTA analyses. Phase structure was analyzed through XRD and Raman spectra. The average particle size of tetragonal zirconium oxide powder was 9.8 and 43.7 nm after calcination at 600 and 1 100 ℃ respectively which was tested by TEM and BET analyses. Furthermore, the influences of the doping of nitrate of lime and the average particle size of zirconium oxide on the stability of tetragonal zirconium oxide were also discussed.展开更多

The purity and diameter of Y_2O_3 particles were controlled by such processingparameters as concentration of YCl_3 and oxalic acid and complex non-ionic surfactant etc. TEMphotomicrographs show that Y_2O_3 particles are spherical in shape, with an average diameter of lessthan 30 nm. Test results certify that the purity and particle diameter as well as the dispersion ofY_2O_3 nano-powder depend on the concentrations of YCl_3, oxalic acid and complex non-ionicsurfactant. The optimum ranges of the concentrations for YCl_3 and complex non-ionic surfactant whenthe diameter of Y_2O_3 particles is smaller than 100 nm are 0.43 ～1.4 mol ?

The activity of the catalyst was studied as function of Al 2O 3 content, calcination temperature and time in the esterification of acetic acid with butanol, and a conversion of 96 5% was obtained. The catalyst gave also higher yields in syntheses of ketals and acetals: cyclohexanone ethylene ketal(86 2%), acetophenone ethylene ketal(78 5%), acetylacetic ester ketal(88 5%), benzaldehyde glycol acetal(76 3%).
