The influence of the carrier on phase and morphology of the obtained pristine products was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). XRD results showed, that the LSCM had rhombohedral symmetry with R-3c space group;a single phase LSCM perovskite formed after calcination of fired gel at 1200°C for 7 h. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of the pristine powders showed spherical shape and particle sizes in the range of 50 – 500 nm.展开更多

The obtained nano-sized pristine products were characterized using X-ray diffractometry, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)-thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The Debye–Scherrer formula was used to estimate the average size of the nanoparticles SnO2 (36 nm), RuO2(24 nm), and (Sn-Ru)O2 (19 nm). Electrochemical studies were carried out to examine the capacitance of SnO2, RuO2, (Sn-Ru)O2 electrodes in 0.5 M H2SO4 at various scan rates. The estimated electrode capacitance was de-termined to decrease with an increase of scan rate.展开更多

The influence of calcination temperature on the phase and morphology of obtained pristine product were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Cyclic voltammogram studies were conducted to examine the electrochemical performance of cathodes made of vanadium oxide nanostructures. X-ray diffraction results show that, the particle size of the nanomaterials is increases with the increasing of calcination temperature.展开更多

The pristine material was characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). X-ray diffraction results show that the pure phase of La0.8Sr0.2MnO3-δ (LSM) perovskite was formed at 1250oC. Scanning electron microscopy characterization shows that a highly porous material can be obtained using a soft-chemical method with different 3,3’,3”-nitrilotripropionic acid ( NTP) to metal-ion ratio R.展开更多
