Two series TiO2-CeO2 samples were synthesized using homogeneous precipitation with urea and template-assisted hydrothermal procedures. The samples were characterized by nitrogen physisorption, XRD, UV-Vis, Raman and TPR techniques. The catalytic properties of the obtained materials were studied in...

Four different synthetic routes were used to prepare active forms of cerium oxide that are capable of destroying toxic organophosphates: a sol-gel process (via a citrate precursor), homogeneous hydrolysis and a precipitation/calcination procedure (via carbonate and oxalate precursors). The samples...

Multicomponent iron-titanium-hafnium oxide materials with different compositions were prepared by combination of homogeneous precipitation with urea and incipient wetness impregnation techniques and tested as catalysts for ethyl acetate oxidation as representative VOCs. Nitrogen physisorption, XRD,...

Abstract
Direct titration with NaOH was used to quantify the acidic functional group content in graphene oxide (Go). Three different methods were used to evaluate the experimental data: the first derivation of the titration curve, Gran linearization and an empirical approach suggested by...

Abstract
The aim of the current investigation is to follow the formation of iron phase in mesoporous nanocrystalline titania and Hf-doped titania powders and its influence on the physicochemical and catalytic properties of the obtained materials. The parent host matrices were synthesized by...
