PB, typically loosely packed, fibrous particle/aggregate, is obtained by adjustingconcentration and flow rate of CO2 and concentration of NaAlO2 solution at a pH level lower than that commonlyassumed during neutralization. After calcination at different temperatures, γ-Al2O3 supports with different pore vol-ume and different pore size are prepared at different conditions.展开更多

The existing form of sulfate radicals was investigated. Results have shown that sulfates in pseudo-boehmite included two parts, the soluble sulfate radicals and the insoluble sulfate radicals, which accounted for 99% of the total amount of sulfate radicals. XRD, low-temperature N2-adsorption, and TEM were used to characterize the properties of these pseudo-boehmite samples. Results have shown that the relative crystallinity and crystal size of pseudo-boehmite decreased with the increase of sulfate radicals in the support. In the meanwhile, the bound water content in pseudo-boehmite increased. The TEM images of pseudo-boehmite indicated that the pseudoboehmite was prone to become amorphous hydrated alumina. However, the effect of sulfate content on the specific surface area and pore structure of aluminium oxide was insignificant.展开更多

In this study, we prepared super-hydrophobic nano-ceramic coated glass based on titania & silica using simple sol-gel & dip coating methods and studied the best composition of the coatings by altering ratios of titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP)/tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) with different homogenizing agents. We characterized the coatings by surface roughness measurement, percentage of optical transmission, static contact angle, near-infrared (NIR) transmission, and diffuse reflectance. The fabrication of coatings on glass substrates played an important role in increasing the water contact angle of about 95° and visible & NIR transmission of about 90%. We compared our modified glass substrate with commercial low emissivity (Low E) glass using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, which showed pure amorphous surface claiming excellent wettability and thus the prepared glass substrate could have a variety of applications in different fields.展开更多
