The prepared powders possessed two absorption edges around 400 and 540 nm wavelengths and showed excellent photocatalytic ability for nitrogen monoxide oxidation under visible light irradiation. Under the irradiation of visible light of wavelength >510 nm,37% of nitrogen monoxide could be continuously removed by the carbon and nitrogen co-doped titania prepared by planetary ball milling of P-25 titania–10% hexamethylenetetramine mixture followed by calcination in air at 400-C.展开更多

Indeed, the elaboration procedure involved an in-situ reaction between accessories carbonates present in raw fibrous palygorskite clay and titanyl sulfate (TiOSO<sub>4</sub>) precursor under variable grinding conditions, essentially ball/solid matter mass ratio and rotation velocity. This yielded after air annealing at 600%C for 1 h to the immobilization of anatase TiO<sub>2</sub> nanoparticles (≈8 nm of average size) as evidenced by XRD and TEM analyses. Once the conditions of elaboration were optimized, the photocatalytic properties were evaluated under 3 conditions: artificial UV radiation, artificial solar radiation (UV + visible range) and under dynamic solar illumination taking into account the discontinuities of the solar resource. The results allowed the estimation and comparison of the catalyst’s capabilities and showed its ability to work under natural irradiation. The so developed supported photocatalysts TiO<sub>2</sub>/Palygorskite exhibited a good activity towards the removal of Orange G (OG) dye from aqueous media under artificial UV and natural solar radiations.展开更多

FTIR spectrum study indicated the presence of ester linkages and olefinic double bonds in maleic anhydride cross-linked PVA. Thermal properties of the cross-linked product were characterized by DSC. The results showed its glass transition temperature was 20 ℃ higher than the original linear PVA and the thermal stability was also improved.展开更多

The effect of thermal treatment on the structural evolution and morphological characteristics of the nanopowders was studied by X-ray diffractometry, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, differential thermal analysis and Rietveld refinement. The results showed that the average crystallite size of Zr02 was less than 100 nm up to around 1100 ℃. The activation energy for ZrO2 nanocrystallite growth during calcination was calculated to be about 13,715 and 27,333 J/too Mechanism of the nanocrysta for tetragonal (t-ZrO2) and monoclinic (m-Zr02) polymorphs, respectively. ite growth of the ZrO2 polymorphs during annealing is primarily investigated.展开更多
