We have investigated the structural, morphological, magnetic, and up-conversion luminescence properties of the Yb3+/Er3+-doped LiGdF4 nanocrystals precipitated in the silica glassy matrix. Morphological analysis showed uniform distribution of LiGdF4...

The reactive crystallization of lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) from LiCl and Na2CO3 solutions was studied by Focused Beam Reflectance Measurement (FBRM) to evaluate the effect of polyacrylic acid (PAA) of different molecular weights (1800, 230,000, and 4...

A wide variety of complexes containing N-donor ligands from ammonia, amines, Schiff bases or N-heterocycles have been prepared since the first complex compound of the family, which was an ammonia cobalt complex, was discovered [...]

This special issue focuses on the design, synthesis, optimization, and application of inorganic electrode materials in high-performance energy storage devices, covering lithium–sulfur batteries [...]

In this work, we present a gettering technique for multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) by combining a nanowire structure with thermal treatment under nitrogen in an infrared lamp furnace. The silicon nanowires were elaborated using the Silver Nanopartic...

This study presents a solvothermal approach starting from micron-sized hydroxide precursors, which combines features of top-down size reduction and bottom-up recrystallization, leading to nanoscale hydroxide particles. The method is based on autoclav...

Double perovskites are represented by the formula A2BB’O6 and AA’BB’O6. These materials have been synthesized using the solid-state reaction, sol–gel, Pechini, and hydrothermal methods. X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, m...

High-pressure intrusion of water and LiCl aqueous solutions at different concentrations in hydrophobic STT-type zeosil was studied for possible applications in absorption and storage of mechanical energy. The water is intruded at a pressure of 35 MPa...

Fluoride contamination in groundwater is a pressing environmental and public health issue, with chronic exposure linked to skeletal and dental fluorosis. Here, we report the synthesis of magnesium oxide nanoparticles via a controlled co-precipitation...

Hydrometallurgy is currently the mainstream industrial process for recovering valuable components (nickel, cobalt, manganese, lithium, etc.) from spent ternary lithium-ion battery cathode materials. During the crushing of lithium batteries, cathode m...
