    Evaluating the Critical Roles of Precursor Nature and Water Content When Tailoring Magnetic Nanoparticles for Specific Applications
    (American Chemical Society, 2018) Cotin, Geoffrey; Kiefer, Celine; Perton, Francis; Boero, Mauro; Özdamar, Burak; Bouzid, Assil; Begin-Colin, Sylvie
    Because of the broad range of application of iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs), the control of their size and shape on demand remains a great challenge, as these parameters are of upmost importance to provide NPs with magnetic properties tailored to the targeted application. One promising synthesis process to tune their size and shape is the thermal decomposition one, for which a lot of parameters were investigated. But two crucial issues were scarcely addressed: the precursors nature and water content. Two in house iron stearates with two or three stearate chains were synthesized, dehydrated, and then tested in standard synthesis conditions of spherical and cubic NPs. Investigations combined with modeling showed that the precursors nature and hydration rate strongly affect the thermal decomposition kinetics and yields, which, in turn, influence the NP size. The cubic shape depends on the decomposition kinetics but also crucially on the water content. A microscopic insight was provided by first-principles simulation showing an iron reduction along the reaction pathway and a participation of water molecules to the building unit formation.

    Formation of La1-Xsrxco1 Cathode Materials From Precursor Salts by Heating in Contact With Cgo Electrolyte
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Sındıraç, Can; Akkurt, Sedat
    The purpose of this study is to determine the solid state reactions leading to the formation of La0.6Sr0.4Co0.8Fe0.2O3 and La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3 which are widely used as cathode material in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) from precursor salts. Interactions between the cathode and the electrolyte layers are also investigated while the cathode layer formed upon heating in contact with the surface of cerium-gadolinium oxide (CGO) electrolyte substrates. Almost all combinations of precursor salt mixtures were tested to see if all solid state reactions are completed and what phases eventually formed. Most of the transformation was complete after 1050 °C heat treatment to yield different mixed oxides. The cathode layer was usually in porous form but was found to spread well over the substrate. Uneven diffusion of La, Sr, Co or Fe into the substrate influenced the stoichiometry of the resulting cathode layer in varying degrees. Fe was found to diffuse into the substrate.
