Synthesis and characterization of spherical and rod like nanocrystalline Nd2O3 phosphors

Spherical and rod like nanocrystalline Nd2O3 phosphors have been prepared by solution combustion and hydrothermal methods respectively The Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) results confirm that hexagonal A-type Nd2O3 has been obtained with calcination at 900 C for 3 h and the lattice parameters have been evaluated by Rietveld refinement Surface morphology of Nd2O3 phosphors show the formation of nanorods in hydrothermal synthesis whereas spherical particles in combustion method TEM results also confirm the same Raman studies show major peaks which are assigned to F-g and combination of A(g) + E-g modes The PL spectrum shows a series of emission bands at similar to 326-373 nm (UV) 421-485 nm (blue) 529-542 nm (green) and 622 nm (red) The UV blue green and red emission in the PL spectrum indicates that Nd2O3 nanocrystals are promising for high performance materials and white light emitting diodes (LEDs) (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved

A New Improved Procedure for the Synthesis of 4-Formylcarane - Precursor to Sandatrile, a Novel Perfumery Chemical

Stereospecific synthesis of 4-formylcarane (2) has been achieved through hydroboration-carbonylation of DELTA-3-carene. Both the reactions are optimised using sodium borohydride. The method is utilised for the synthesis of sandatrile (3), a novel perfumery chemical.

Benzyltriethylammonium tetrathiomolybdate has been found to be a superior reagent for the conversion of alkyl halides to the corresponding disulfides in chloroform at room temperature.

Combustion Synthesis of Metal Chromite Powders

Fine-particle metal chromites (MCr2O4, where M = Mg, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn) have been prepared by the combustion of aqueous solutions containing the respective metal nitrate, chromium(III) nitrate, and urea in stoichiometric amounts. The mixtures, when rapidly heated to 350°C, ignite and yield voluminous chromites with surface areas ranging from 5 to 25 m2/g. MgCr2O4, sintered in air at 1500°C for 5 h, has a density of 4.0 g/cm3.

Combustion synthesis of rare earth cuprates

Rare earth cuprates, La2CuO4 Nd2CuO4, La1.8M0.2CuO4 (M=Ca.Sr) and Nd1.85Ce0.15CuO4 have been prepared by the combustion of redox mixtures containing corresponding metal nitrates and maleic hydrazide, C4H4N2O2, at 350°C. The solid combustion products are submicron size amorphous powders which on heat treatment (700°C, 30 minutes) yield crystalline single phase cuprates. Strontium doped lanthanum cuprate, La1.8Sr0.2CuO4, shows an onset of superconductivity at 36K.

Electroless nickel hydroxide: synthesis and characterization

An electroless method of nickel hydroxide synthesis through the complexation-precipitation route which yields a fine particle material having a specific surface area of 178 m2 g–1 has been described. The morphology of this material as revealed by electron microscopy is distinctly different from the turbostratic nature of electrosynthesized nickel hydroxide. While the long range structure as shown by the X-ray diffraction pattern is similar to that of beta-Ni(OH)2, the short range structure as revealed by infrared spectroscopy incorporates characteristics similar to that of agr-Ni(OH)2. Cyclic voltammetry studies show that the electroless nickel hydroxide has a higher coulombic efficiency (>90%), a more anodic reversible potential and a higher degree of reversibility compared to the electrosynthesized nickel hydroxide and conventionally prepared nickel hydroxide.
