Aluminosilicates with varying Al2O3:SiO2 molar ratios (3 : 1, 3 2, and 4) have been synthesized using a hybrid sol–gel route boehmite sol as the precursor for alumina tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) silica. The synthesis of from aluminium nitrate, its use precursor, is cost effective compared to alkoxide precursors. Structural aspects, including bonding coordination, are studied in detail samples calcined temperature range 400–1400 °C both NMR FTIR spectroscopy: results correlated phase...
Abstract Metal oxides, in general, are known to exhibit significant wettability towards water molecules because of the high feasibility synergetic hydrogen-bonding interactions possible at solid-water interface. Here we show that nano sized phosphates rare earth materials (Rare Earth Phosphates, REPs), LaPO 4 particular, without any chemical modification, unique combination intrinsic properties including remarkable hydrophobicity could be retained even after exposure extreme temperatures and...
