A polymeric sol-gel combustion method has been used to synthesize nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) powder from calcium nitrate and triethyl phosphate with the addition of NH(4)OH. The sol-gel combustion process generates phase-pure nanocrystalline HA powder, as characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Sintering of the HA powder compact at 1200 degrees C for 2 h leads to a 93% theoretical dense ceramic body. This method offers an easy route for the preparation of phase-pure nanocrystalline HA powder.

Incorporating zinc into biocompatible materials has been identified as a potential strategy for promoting bone regeneration and osteogenic activity during hard tissue regeneration. This work aimed to investigate the impact of zinc doping on the structure of akermanite, which was synthesized using the sol-gel combustion method, with the goal of improving the biological response. Powder XRD and FT-IR analysis confirmed the phase purity and the respective functional groups associated with Zn-doped akermanite.

The catalytic activity of Ni-Fe oxide embedded in CNTs was investigated in terms of valence states and active oxygen species. Ni-Fe oxides were prepared by the sol-gel combustion process, and Ni-Fe oxides embedded in CNT catalysts were synthesized by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) method. The lattice structure of the Ni-Fe oxide catalysts was analyzed, and the lattice distortion was increased with the addition of Fe.

Under industrial conditions, efficient catalytic oxidation of Chlorinated volatile organic compounds is an important challenge, not only because of the poisonous effect of Chlorinated volatile organic compounds on catalysts, but also because of their high reaction temperature, which has an adverse impact on industrialization. In a recent article ( Ru/CeO ) [1], we developed a strategy for preparing a simple and efficient monolithic catalyst for the catalytic combustion of chlorobenzene. Ru/CeO was loaded on the industrial support cordierite by a Sol-gel method.
