Precursor, base concentration and solvent behavior on the formation of zinc silicate

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Photoluminescence Characterization of Eu3+‐Doped Silicate Phosphor

“…5(a)). The formation of rods is attributed to the high pH value as we have reported previously 16 . There exist shorter rods.…”

“…The formation of rods is attributed to the high pH value as we have reported previously. 16 There exist shorter rods. The shorter rods tend to assemble to hierarchical structures like cauliflowers ( Fig.…”

Thermal and chemical methods for producing zinc silicate (willemite): A review

“…Zeng et al reported that a-phase Zn 2 SiO 4 was formed in water and ethanol over 12 h reaction time at temperature of 110 C, the lowest in previous hydrothermal literature, although the XRD peaks of the material were very broad indicating very low crystallinity [115]. The reaction time required for product formation probably tends to be shortened with an increase in temperature.…”

Fine tuning of the dimensionality of zinc silicate nanostructures and their application as highly efficient absorbents for toxic metal ions

“…Examples of 1-D zinc silicates with different morphologies-including needle-like [25], nanowires [26,27], rice-like [28], and nanorod-like [29][30][31][32]-have been synthesized by hydrothermal methods. However, 0-D hollow spheres and 2-D membrane nanostructures have been scarcely reported.…”
