Abstract

Graphical abstract: - Highlights: • Uniform hierarchical SnS microspheres via solvothermal reaction. • The formation process was investigated in detail. • The obtained hierarchical SnS microspheres exhibit superior capacity (1650 mAh g{sup −1}) when used as lithium battery for the hierarchical microsphere structure. - Abstract: Hierarchical SnS microspheres have been successfully synthesized by a mild solvothermal process using poly(vinylpyrrolidone) as surfactant in this work. The morphology and composition of the microspheres were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The influence of reaction parameters, such as sulfur sources, reaction temperature and the concentration of PVP, on the final morphology of the products are investigated. On the basis of time-dependent experiments, the growth mechanism has also been proposed. The specific surface area of the 3D hierarchitectured SnS microspheres were investigated by using nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherms. Lithium ion storage performances of the synthesized materials as anodes for Lithium-ion battery were investigated in detail and it exhibits excellent electrochemical properties.

Hematite homogeneous core/shell hierarchical spheres: Surfactant-free solvothermal preparation and their improved catalytic property of selective oxidation

Journal Article Suoyuan, Lian; Haitao, Li; Xiaodie, He; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

Solvothermal synthesis is an efficient synthetic method for preparing nano and micromaterials. Preparation of hematite through alcoholysis of ferric ion under solvothermal condition has been carried out at low concentrations. In this paper, Fe{sub 2}O{sub 3} homogeneous core/shell hierarchical nanostructures were synthesized via solvothermal treatment of FeCl{sub 3}{center_dot}6H{sub 2}O and ethanol. The achievements of such structures can be attributed to two important factors: high temperature and high concentration. Besides, the crystal water and reaction time were also important factors to the synthesis of hematite. The prepared samples were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction, Raman spectra, scanning electron microscopy equipped withmore »« less

Solvent effects on microstructures and properties of three-dimensional hierarchical TiO{sub 2} microsphere structures synthesized via solvothermal approach

Journal Article Xu, Shiping; Sun, Xiang; Gao, Yuan; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

One-step solvothermal method has been proved to be a simple and efficient route to synthesize three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical TiO{sub 2} microsphere structures, but discrepant properties of the solvent media had been claimed as the major factors determining microstructures and properties of the final products. In this study, several typical solvents, including alkane, aromatic hydrocarbons, halohydrocarbon, ketone, organic acid, mono- and dihydric alcohols, were selected to comprehensively investigate the effect of solvents on the morphology, crystal structure, specific surface area, porous property and light harvesting capability of the final products. According to the experimental results, a good interface separating titanium precursormore »« less

Uniform AMoO{sub 4}:Ln (A=Sr{sup 2+}, Ba{sup 2+}; Ln=Eu{sup 3+}, Tb{sup 3+}) submicron particles: Solvothermal synthesis and luminescent properties

Journal Article Piaoping, Yang; Chunxia, Li; Wenxin, Wang; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

Rare-earth ions (Eu{sup 3+}, Tb{sup 3+}) doped AMoO{sub 4} (A=Sr, Ba) particles with uniform morphologies were successfully prepared through a facile solvothermal process using ethylene glycol (EG) as protecting agent. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), photoluminescence (PL) spectra and the kinetic decays were performed to characterize these samples. The XRD results reveal that all the doped samples are of high purity and crystallinity and assigned to the tetragonal scheelite-type structure of the AMoO{sub 4} phase. It has been shown that the as-synthesized SrMoO{sub 4}:Ln andmore »« less
