ABSTRACT In oxidations by nitric acid (HNO3), such as the dissolution of gold (Au) in aqua regia, mixtures of nitrogen monoxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are produced. In this article, the exact processes through which these two nitrogen oxides are produced were discussed. It was shown that in the processes of dissolution in HNO3 or aqua regia, NO2 is never a direct product of oxidations by HNO3

The Effect of Hydrothermal Synthesis Parameters on the Formation of Sodium Bismuth Titanate Comments Inorg. Chem. (IF 5.4) Pub Date : 2020-09-23 Elena A. Reshetnikova, Inna V. Lisnevskaya, Ekaterina A. Zalyubovskaya, Vera V. Butova, Alexander V. Soldatov
ABSTRACT We report the effect of various Bi:Ti ratios x:1 (x = 0.5–3) on the phase formation of sodium-bismuth titanate Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) during hydrothermal synthesis (230°С, 3 MPa, 96 h) from titanium oxide and bismuth hydroxide in 20 M NaOH solution. It was shown that single-phase ceramics with perovskite structure could be obtained at x = 0.5–0.9 using the hot-pressing technique (1025°С, 60

Synthesis of Fe-Doped TiO2 for Photocatalytic Processes under UV-Visible Light: Effect of Preparation Methods on Crystal Size—A Systematic Review Study Comments Inorg. Chem. (IF 5.4) Pub Date : 2020-09-29 Ahmad Jonidi Jafari, Mehrdad Moslemzadeh
ABSTRACT Objective is to investigate effect of preparation methods on crystal size at synthesis of Fe-doped TiO2 as a systematic review study. All references (455) were found by manual duplication and finally n = 136 records remained. After reading their titles, abstracts and full-texts, 58 relevant full-text articles were included based on the considered exclusion criteria. Finally, 21 relevant full-text

Recent Advances in Nanocomposite Luminescent Metal-Organic Framework Sensors for Detecting Metal Ions Comments Inorg. Chem. (IF 5.4) Pub Date : 2020-09-04 Sofian M. Kanan, Ahmed Malkawi
ABSTRACT Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are of great interest to researchers in chemistry and material science due to their various chemical and physical properties, which include high surface area, augmented adsorption/desorption kinetics, biocompatibility, and functional tunability. The structurally diverse 1-D, 2-D, and 3-D metal-organic frameworks have found applications in chemical sensing and
