INTRODUCTION Although a considerable number of precipitants have been pro- posed for the determination of aluminium, direct precipitation of aluminium hydroxide by means of ammonium hydroxide, fol- lowed by ignition to oxide, is most commonly used, especially if no separation from iron is desired, in which latter case special methods must be employed. While the general principles involved in this determination are extremely simple, it has long been recog- nized that certain precautions in the precipitation, washing, and ignition are necessary if accurate results are to be obtained. While, however, most of these details have been studied and dis- cussed by numerous authors, it is noteworthy that few publica- tions or textbooks have taken account of all the factors. In the 515 ; 516 Bulletin of the Bureau of Standards [Voi.i3 present paper it seems desirable, therefore, to assemble the various recommendations and to consider their basis and their accuracy. -

Synthesis and Characterization of Yttrium Aluminium Garnet (YAG
Processing and Application of Ceramics 1 [1–2] (2007) 69–74 Synthesis and characterization of yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG) powders Magdalena Zarzecka-Napierala*, Krzystof Haberko AGH-University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Materials Science and Ceramics, Al. Mickiewicza 30, 30–059 Kraków, Poland Received 17 September 2007; received in revised form 20 November 2007; accepted 24 November 2007 Abstract In this paper synthesis and characterization of YAG powders, prepared by a process based on complexing properties of citric acid, was reported. Infl uence of citric acid estrifi cation induced by 2-propanol or ethylene glycol on the system homogeneity was investigated. These reagents were introduced to aqueous solution of yt- trium and aluminium nitrates. A variety of powders from Al2O3-Y2O3 system with different phase composition were obtained by altering the citrate to nitrate ratio. Evolution of the powders phase composition vs. tempera- ture was investigated using DTA/TG, XRD, and FT-IR methods. The most interesting results were observed in case of the citric acid – propanol – relative nitrates system. The mole ratio of these reagents equal to 1: 2.5: 2.5 (nitrates (Al,Y): citric acid: 2-propanol) allowed to synthesize pure YAG phase powders at temperature as low as 950°C. Keywords: YAG, citric acid, citrate gel method I. Introduction homogeneous YAG or Nd: YAG powder have been ad- opted. YAG powders have been prepared traditionally In the Y2O3 – Al2O3 system, apart from the end-mem- ber phases, three compounds stable at ambient pressure by a solid state reaction [6] from the corresponding ox- ides, which requires prolonged mechanical mixing and are known: Y3Al5O12 (YAG), YAlO3 (YAP) and Y2Al4O9 (YAM), having cubic garnet, orthorombic or hexagonal extensive heat treatment at high temperature to elimi- perovskite and monoclinic symmetry structure, respec- nate intermediate phases. -

Such solutions result from leaching calcium aluminate slags with sodium carbonate solutions, in accordance with the Pedersen process, which is an alternative process for alumina production. The concentration of carbonate ions in the pregnant solution is revealed as a key factor in controlling the nature of the precipitating phase. Synthetic aluminate solutions of varying sodium carbonate concentrations, ranging from 20 to 160 g/L, were carbonated, and the resulting precipitating phases were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. Based on the results Citation: Marinos, D.; Kotsanis, D.; Alexandri, A.; Balomenos, E.; Panias, of the previous carbonation tests, a series of experiments were performed in which the duration of D. Carbonation of Sodium carbonation and the aging period of the precipitates varied. For this work, a synthetic aluminate Aluminate/Sodium Carbonate solution containing 20 g/L free Na2CO3 was used. -

Alvareza* aMIMED Research Group; Department of Chemistry and Soil Sciences, School of Sciences, University of Navarra. Irunlarrea, 1. 31008 Pamplona, Spain doi:10.1016/j.cemconres.2015.11.013 Available online 19 December 2015 Abstract The effect of chlorides and nitrates of Li(I), Cr(III), Zn(II), Cu(II), Pb(II) nitrate and Cr(VI) (chromate) on the early hydration of ternary system of calcium aluminates (CA, CA2, C12A7) was reported. Li(I) and Cr(III) caused a strong acceleration of the hydration, while Zn(II) as well as chromate gave rise to a slight acceleration. On the contrary, Pb(II) and Cu(II) retarded the hydration. A clear formation of AFm phases during the first hydration stages was found and related to the acceleration ability. Anions (nitrate or chloride as counterions or even chromate) were able to be incorporated into the interlayer space of AFm, yielding insoluble and stable compounds. A balance between the insolubility of the metal hydroxides (dependant on the low amphoteric character of the compound) and the ability of the formation of AFm hydrates seems to be very important to lean the equilibrium towards the retarding of the hydration or towards the acceleration, respectively. 1 1. Introduction The use of calcium aluminate cements as an efficient binding system to confine hazardous materials has shown a growing interest [1-3]. Several advantages have been reported, such as rapid increment of mechanical strength and high resistance to aggressive agents. -

In composite cements considerable parts of the clinker is replaced by supplementary cementitious materials. Within two STAR’s we will focus on the fly ash and limestone as replacements for part of the clinker. This first part will mainly focus on the reactivity, activation and reaction products of fly ash. Fly ash is a relatively slow reacting pozzolan. Its reactivity depends on the alkalinity of the cement, the curing temperature, the replacement level and the water-binder ratio. -
Synthesis of Stoichiometric Nickel Aluminate Spinel Nanoparticles
1 Revision 1 2 Synthesis of Stoichiometric Nickel Aluminate Spinel Nanoparticles 3 Md. Hasan, John Drazin, Sanchita Dey, Ricardo H. R. Castro* 4 Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, University of California - Davis, 5 One Shields Avenue, Davis, CA 95616 6 *Corresponding author: [email protected] 7 Abstract 8 Nickel aluminate is a transition metal oxide with spinel structure with potential applications as 9 catalysts and sensors. Both applications benefit from high specific surface areas as well as 10 chemical stoichiometry control. However, a systematic approach to understand synthetic 11 parameters affecting stoichiometry and agglomeration of nickel aluminate nanoparticles still 12 lacks. In this work, co-precipitation using direct and reverse strikes and polymeric precursor 13 techniques were comparatively studied to address this problem. While the polymeric method 14 could deliver stoichiometric spinel, the samples were highly agglomerated exhibiting low surface 15 area. Both co-precipitation procedures produced smaller sizes and less agglomerated 16 nanoparticles as compared to the polymeric precursor, but for the reverse-strike, Ni2+ 17 preferentially formed a soluble complex with ammonia and led to nickel deficient nanoparticles. 18 Stoichiometric (1 mole NiO : 1 mole Al2O3) nanocrystalline nickel aluminate was only achieved 19 when using controlled excess Ni2+. The normal-strike lead to more stoichiometric compositions 20 without need for excess cations, but the obtained nanoparticles were less homogeneous and 21 showed smaller surface areas as compared to the reverse-strike method. 22 Keywords: Spinel, nickel aluminate, nanopowder, stoichiometry 23 Introduction 24 Aluminate spinels generally present high thermal stability and melting points, mechanical 25 stability, and resistance to alkalis and acids (Zawadzki and Wrzyszcz, 2000). -
YAG (Y3al5o12) As a SCAVENGER for Si and Ca
YAG (Y3Al5O12) as a SCAVENGER for Si and Ca by YENER KURU Submitted to the Graduate School of Engineering and Natural Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Sabancı University July 2004 YAG (Y3Al5O12) as a SCAVENGER for Si and Ca APPROVED BY: Assist. Prof. Mehmet Ali Gülgün …………………………………… (Dissertation Supervisor) Assist. Prof. Cleva Ow-Yang …………………………………… Assoc. Prof. Mehmet Somer …………………………………… DATE OF APPROVAL: …………………………………… © Yener Kuru 2004 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT General garnet structure (Ia3-d) is a forgiving host and can accommodate cations of varying sizes and valence states. Yttrium aluminate garnet (YAG, Y3Al5O12) forms with the substitution of yttrium for manganese in the original garnet mineral spessartite (Mn3Al2(SiO4)3), if aluminum simultaneously substitute for silicon such that the charge neutrality is maintained. Studies on highly yttrium doped alumina ceramics with Si and Ca contamination indicated that YAG precipitates in the ceramic had a propensity to allow simultaneous incorporation of small amounts of Si and Ca impurities in their structure. In this study, using chemical synthesis techniques it was shown that YAG can accommodate up to approximately 10 cation % Si4+ and Ca2+ (i.e. Si4+/Y3+ and Ca2+/Y3+) amount in YAG if they are incorporated together. Equilibrium conditions are established by calcining samples at 900°C for 2 hours and cooling the samples to room temperature in the furnace. Disappearing-phase method and EDS analysis were used to determine solubility and co-solubility limits. Beyond the solubility limit phase separation occured and three crystalline yttrium aluminate phases (YAG, YAP (yttrium aluminate perovskite, YAlO3), YAM (yttrium aluminate monoclinic, Y4Al2O9)) were observed. -
