Ceramic nanostructure materials, membranes and composite layers [PDF]
Synthesis methods to obtain nanoscale materials will be briefly discussed with a focus on sol-gel methods. Three types of nanoscale composites (powders, membranes and ion implanted layers) will be discussed and exemplified with recent original research ...

Graphitized Carbon Xerogels for Lithium-Ion Batteries [PDF]
Carbon xerogels with different macropore sizes and degrees of graphitization were evaluated as electrodes in lithium-ion batteries. It was found that pore structure of the xerogels has a marked effect on the degree of graphitization of the final carbons.

Effects of aerogel-like disorder on the critical behavior of O(m)-vector models. Recent simulations and experimental evidences [PDF]
We review some results on the effect of a specific type of quenched disorder on well known O(m)-vector models in three dimension. Evidences of changes of criticality in both systems, when confined in aerogel pores, are briefly referenced. The 3DXY model (

Hydrophobic Modification of ZrO2-SiO2 Xerogel and Its Adsorption Properties to Rhodamine B
Zirconium nitrate pentahydrate (Zr(NO3)4·5H2O) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) are used as the zirconium source and silicon source, respectively, and methyltriethoxysilane (MTES) as the hydrophobic modifier; the hydrophilic and hydrophobic ZrO2-SiO2 ...

Catalytic coatings on stainless steel prepared by sol–gel route [PDF]
Stainless steel (flat and microstructured) substrates have been coated with sol–gel catalysts made up of metal nanoparticles (Rh, Ni, Pt) dispersed on alumina and alumina–ceria supports.

Trapping a Metastable Node in an Amorphous Metal–Organic Framework
Frustrated assembly in an amorphous Fe‐BDC framework is shown to trap a distorted, metastable Fe3O node as the dominant local motif. X‐ray PDF analysis and DFT calculations reveal that rapid network percolation outpaces node relaxation, locking in a high‐energy puckered geometry.
