Abstract—Crystalline Pb0.5 + xMgxZr2 – x(PO4)3 (x = 0, 0.5) phosphates of NaZr2(PO4)3 (NZP) structural type were synthesized. The heat capacity of Pb0.5Zr2(PO4)3 was measured by adiabatic vacuum and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) within the temperature range 8–660 K. The studied phosphates were found to experience a reversible phase transition in the region 256–426 K. According to the results of Rietveld structural study, this transition occurred due to an increase in disorder of lead cation positions in cavities of the NZP structure. The measurements of PbMg0.5Zr1.5(PO4)3 heat capacity in the temperature range 195–660 K showed that it experienced a similar phase transition at 255–315 K. Based on the measured experimental data, the thermodynamic functions of Pb0.5Zr2(PO4)3, such as Cp 0(T) [H0(T) – H0(0)], S0(T), and [G0(T) – H0(0)] were calculated for the temperature range 0–660 K. The standard formation enthalpy of Pb0.5Zr2(PO4)3 was determined at 298.15 K.

Actinide chemistry is very interesting not from scientific perspective but also from technological importance. Elucidating the valence state and coordinating environment of actinide ion like uranium in technologically important magnesium aluminate spinel (MAS) is important to fully understand its hazardous and other harmful effect in human as well as environment. Magnesium aluminate spinel doped with 1.0?mol % of Uranium ion has been synthesized using citric acid assisted gel-combustion route at 800?°C. The as prepared powder is characterised using X-ray diffraction (XRD), time resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy (TRPLS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Uranium is an interesting element because it exhibits multiple oxidation state and each one of them is having characteristics fluorescence behavior. TRPLS is used to investigate the oxidation state and coordination behavior of uranium in MgAl2O4. Indeed in our earlier work on undoped and lanthanide ion doped MAS; it was oberved that in undoped sample itself defect induced emission could be seen in visible region which was probed using DFT. Here on doping uranium in MAS; complete energy of host is transferred to uranium ion which is explained using DFT. From excitation and emission spectroscopy it was observed that uranium stabilizes in?+6 oxidation state in the form of UO22+ ion. Based on luminescence lifetime and its comparison with the emission profile of uranyl fluoride crystal it was inferred that majority of uranium is occupying relatively asymmetric MgO4polyhedra and minority substitutes AlO6. The site stability of the uranyl ion in MAS was also validated using DFT based first principle calculations. Time resolved emission shows the uranyl at Mg2+site differs from the one at Al3+site in terms of peak position and intensity.

The Mg(NO3)2-KNO3 binary system phase diagram has a congruent melting compound, 2KNO3·Mg(NO 3)2. The thermodynamic properties for this compound are not available in the literature. In this study, the nitrate compound was synthesized and the melting point and heat capacity were determined using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Two endothermic peaks were observed at 404.8 K and 468.83 K corresponding to solid state transition and melting of the compound with the enthalpies of transitions as 2.71 kJ/mol and 20.73 kJ/mol, respectively. The heat capacity data as function of temperature are fit to polynomial function and thermodynamic properties like enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs energies of the compound as function of temperature are subsequently deduced.
Differential thermal analysis under quasi-isothermal, quasi-isobaric conditions (Q-DTA): Part IV. Latent error in the determination of the decomposition heat of salt hydrates decomposing congruently and incongruently
Paulik,Bessenyey-Paulik,Walther-Paulik
, p. 76 - 82 (2005)
The authors disclosed by the simultaneous Q-DTA, Q-TG method a latent, till now not known error in determining the decomposition heat of salt hydrates decomposing congruently or incongruently. This error cannot be shown by the traditional calorimetric or thermoanalytical methods owing to overlapping of the processes taking part in the heat decomposition, it can only be detected and eliminated by applying the simultaneous Q-DTA, Q-TG method of very high resolution and selectivity. A calculation technique is elaborated for the elimination of this error.

A procedure has been developed for the synthesis of MgAl2O 4 nanopowders with a characteristic particle size of 10-40 nm. Translucent hydrous xerogels have been synthesized as precursors to MgAl 2O4. The synthesized magnesium aluminum spinel nanopowders are promising for the fabrication of optical ceramics.

Lead magnesium niobate-lead titanate (PMN-PT) ceramic fibres with the nominal composition of 0.65Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O 3-0.35PbTiO3 have been fabricated by a modified sol-gel method. Due to the difficulty of dissolving the magnesium component, the mixed oxide method was used together with the traditional sol-gel method. To obtain crack-free fibres, pyrolysis was carried out at a very slow heating rate under specific atmosphere to control the organic burnout. The thermal and microstructural properties were investigated using thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The optimum sintering temperature is 1200°C and yields a fibre with a final diameter of around 100 μm. A single PMN-PT fibre has been poled and its electrical properties were measured. The properties of the fibre are found to be better than that of a ceramic disc.

Magnesium-orthotitanate (Mg2TiO4) nano-powder was synthesized using a Pechini-type polymerized complex route. Microstructural characterization involving transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms indicated that well-crystallized Mg2TiO4 nanoparticles are small in size (about 10 nm) with large specific surface area (72 m2 g-1). The surface modification of Mg2TiO4 nano-powders with 5-amino salicylic acid and catechol induced a significant shift of absorption to the visible spectral region due to charge transfer complex formation. It should be emphasized that tunable optical properties of Mg2TiO4 nano-powders have never been reported in the literature. Degradation reactions of an organic dye (crystal violet) were used to test the photocatalytic ability of pristine and surface-modified Mg2TiO4 nano-powders under illumination in different spectral regions. Excitation with UV light indicated, for the first time, photocatalytic ability of Mg2TiO4. Also, improved photocatalytic performance of surface-modified Mg2TiO4 nano-powders was found in comparison to unmodified ones.
