Spinel MgAl2O4 nanopowders were synthesized by one-step solid state reactions using Al(NO3)3.9H2O and MgSO4 raw materials at stoichiometric 1 : 2, Mg : Al molar ratio at a constant reaction temperature of 1000 ºC for 8 h (S1), 10 h (S2) and 24 h (S3). The synthesized materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) […]
Nanostructured Ni1-xLnxSb2O6 (Ln = Eu, Gd, Ho and Yb) powders were synthesized via stoichiometric 1:2 Ni:Sb molar ratio by solid state reaction at 800 ºC for 8 h using Ni(NO3)2, Sb2O3, Eu2O3, Gd2O3 and Ho2O3 raw materials. The synthesized materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. Structural analyses were done by FullProf program employing […]
With the emerging newer energy storage applications, transition metal vanadates are booming up as a better catalyst. Among all the transition metal vanadates, nickel vanadate nanoparticles (Ni3V2O8 NPs), are considered as a promising material with electrocatalytic and photocatalytic activity. We herein report circular and ovular structured Ni3V2O8 NPs by hydrothermal route without using any capping […]
The present work reports the Hirshfeld surface analysis and photocatalytic performance of NiFe2O4 nanomaterial. Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to understand the interaction properties of the NiFe2O4 compound. The active sites including π-π interactions are studied by the analysis. The Hirshfeld data showed that the two wings in the O…O and O…Ni diagrams are created […]
