Effects of the titanium source and reaction conditions on the hydrothermal reaction rate, product phase component, and morphology of whiskers were investigated. The results show that the reactivity of hydrated titania, anatase TiO2, and rutile TiO2 with KOH decreases in turn, and with hydrated titania as titanium source, it is difficult to obtain potassium hexatitanate whiskers with good morphology. In contrast, uniform potassium hexatitanate whiskers with a length of 10-20 μm and a diameter of 200-700 nm were obtained using anatase TiO2 as titanium source. The investigation demonstrates that the initial KOH concentration, annealing temperature and time, molar ratio of K2O/TiO2, etc. significantly affect the morphology of the as-synthesized whiskers. The optimized synthesis condition is as follows： anatase as a titanium source 10 wt.% KOH solution; annealing temperature and time of 300℃ and 5 h, respectively; K2O/TiO2 molar ratio of 5, etc. A rhombic potassium hexatitanate was prepared under the optimum condition and the whisker grew along the [110] direction. The reaction mechanism was discussed.展开更多

By simply varying the KOH concentration in the hydrothermal process,K1.9Na0.1Ta2O6·2H2O particles with spherical,cuboctahedral,and durian-like morphologies were synthesized. The photocatalytic activity of the obtained samples for the degradation of rhodamine B was studied under ultraviolet light,which indicates that the photocatalytic properties of the samples are highly dependent on their morphologies. The K1.9Na0.1Ta2O6·2H2O nanospheres,with rough surfaces and the highest specific surface area,exhibit the best performance. The present work provides a unique approach for the controlled synthesis of tantalate photocatalysts,which are difficult to achieve through other synthetic approaches.展开更多

The effects of various factors on the structure of the samples were extensivelyinvestigated. The samples were characterized by N_2 adsorption, XRD, IR and DTG-DTA methods, andthe results show that the crystallization temperature and amount of added water play an importantrole in the formation of the zeolite structure. The 4A and P zeolites are the competitive phasepresent in the resulting product. However, NaY zeolites with a higher relative crystallinity,excluding impure crystals and the well hydrothermal stability, can be synthesized from coal-basedkaolin. These zeolites possess a larger surface area and a narrow pore size distribution, and thismeans that optimization of this process might result in a commercial route to synthesize NaYzeolites from coal-based kaolin.展开更多

The titania gel that contains europium complex exhibits Eu3+ characteristic emission bands and presents a longer fluorescence lifetime than the pure complexes dissolved in ethanol solution. The concentration effect on the luminescence intensity was also investigated.展开更多

The effects of hydrothermal time on the phase and morphology of the material were discussed.By controlling the reaction solutions, the rodlike, flowerlike,and strawlike LiMn_(0.6)Fe_(0.4)PO_4 cathode materials were synthesized. Electrochemical performances show that the rodlike LiMn_(0. 6)Fe_(0. 4)PO_4 has the best electrochemical properties. The initial discharge capacity of the rodlike structure is 106.4 mAh·g^(-1), which is higher than those of flowerlike and strawlike materials.展开更多
