Abstract Copper cobaltite (CuCo 2 O 4 ) porous structures with different morphologies are prepared through a hydrothermal method and subsequent annealing process. The tunability of is succeeded by simply regulation solvent medium amount the polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) which served as structure directing agent. All samples have mesoporous nature. Specifically, CuCo ‐porous flowers morphology higher surface area (43.2 m g −1 porosity (0.18 cm 3 than other nano such flakes, blades wires. maximum...
Lithium (Li), a leading cathode material in rechargeable Li-ion batteries, is vital to modern energy storage technology, establishing it as one of the most impactful and strategical elements. Given surge electric car market, crucial improve lithium recovery from its rich mineral deposits using effective extraction technique. In recent years, both industry academia have shown significant interest Li various Li-bearing minerals. Of these, only spodumene has established reliable industrial...

The present method development was deal REEs such as neodymium, terbium and dysprosium, selective extraction with possible separation recovery studies, successfully. chloride mediated mixed aqueous solution containing 1500 mg/L each of Nd, Tb Dy subjected at Nd from other associated REEs. Three organo-phosphorous based commercial...
Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles dispersed on single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) composites are synthesized through a simple in‐situ co‐arc discharge process followed by an annealing process. A well‐integrated /SWCNT composite exhibiting the strong microwave absorption (MA, −36.9 dB at 10.5 GHz) and wide effective bandwidth (5.5 is obtained controlling conditions. The high MA performance of this was ascribed to well integration magnetic (Fe ) SWCNT, creating synergetic effect. This work...
Fuel cell performance largely relies on the activity of catalyst; hence development high electrocatalysts for electrooxidation methanol is highly essential further in fuel technology. Herein, we demonstrate a facile hydrothermal approach growth NiCo2O4 nanorods and their application electrooxidation.

This paper reports the successful additive-free sintering of fine Nd-Fe-B powder prepared by reduction-diffusion (RD) and wet ball milling (WBM) washing. Fine RD poses difficulties in without rare earth (RE) hydride additives due to oxidation or loss Nd-rich phase during washing step. Here, effect different methods such as conventional water washing, acetic acid WBM on oxygen content powders was examined. The involves low energy organic media, which simplifies removal impurities from powder....
We prepared the Nd-Fe-B particles with enhanced magnetic properties through cost-effective and facile chemical methods including spray drying reduction-diffusion (RD) techniques.
