The crystalline phases characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) show that the sample glasses crystallizes into two phases, i.e. NATP and Ca9Al(PO4)7, while the Ca9Al(PO4)7 phase can be leached selectively with HCl, leaving a massive number of pores in the material.

Cycle experiment also shows that the NATP has a good cyclic performance.展开更多
