    Bulk CuAlO2 delafossite has been synthesized by solid state reaction to reinvestigate the thermoelectric properties. The electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity were measured in a high temperature range of 300 to 960 K. The result of positive sign of Seebeck coefficient confirms p-type nature of CuAlO2 compund. The results of bulk sample for Seebeck coefficient, the electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity are range of 900 to 300 μV/K, of 0.01 to 2 S/cm, and of 3.5 W/mK to 1.5 W/mK. The maximum ZT value of bulk sample is 0.017 at a 960 K. These results can be concluded that the bulk CuAlO2 by solid state state displays thermoelelctric material.

The XRD peaks confirm the samples forming the delafossite structure phase. The Seebeck coefficient reveals the samples displays the p-type conducting. The XPS spectra show the Sn2+ state stabling in this compound. The optical direct gap is 3.45 eV as a visible-transparent material. These results support that the Cu<inf>0.95</inf>Pt<inf>0.05</inf>Fe<inf>0.97</inf>Sn<inf>0.03</inf>O<inf>2</inf> oxide compounds, of which the Cu<sup>1+</sup> and Fe<sup>3+</sup> sites are substituted by the Pt<sup>1+</sup> and Sn<sup>2+</sup> ions respectively, are p-type transparent conducting oxide materials. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.

    A binary calcium iron pyrophosphate CaFeP<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf> was synthesized by solid state route using the mixing of calcium carbonate, iron metal and phosphoric acid in aqueous-acetone media at 600°C. The XRD datum indicates the formation of CaFeP<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf> phase without the presence of any phase impurities. FTIR result indicates the presence of the P<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf> <sup>4-</sup> anion in the structure. Sheet-like microparticle of CaFeP<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf> was revealed by SEM. Room temperature magnetization result showed ferromagnetic behavior of the synthesized CaFeP<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf>, with saturation-specific magnetization value of 11.067 emu g<sup>-1</sup> at 10kOe. The magnetic feature of the synthesized CaFeP<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf> in this work compared with M<inf>2</inf>P<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf> (M = Ca and Fe), its isotypic (CaMP2O7 (M= Mn and Co) and CFeP<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf> (C= Co and Cu) reported in our previous works is important properties for specific applications. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.

    This work presented the preparation and supercapacitor performance of a spinel nickel-cobalt oxide (NiCo2O4) microflowers mixed with nano-sized reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets. The hybrid material (NiCo2O4/rGO), pure NiCo2O4 and nano-sized rGO samples were characterized and confirmed by several techniques, such as XRD, SEM and EDS. The supercapacitive properties of all prepared samples were also studied using an electrochemical measurement technique (CV and GCD). The results revealed that the NiCo2O4/rGO (484.1 F.g<sup>-1</sup>) hybrid electrode exhibited much higher specific capacitance than those of pristine NiCo2O4 (358.3 F.g<sup>-1</sup>) and nano-sized rGO (113.8 F.g<sup>-1</sup>) electrodes, respectively. Hence, this work indicates that the supercapacitor performance of NiCo2O4 mixed rGO hybrid materials is more superior to the pure NiCo2O4 microflowers and nano-sized rGO sheets.

    This study aims to investigate the strong correlation effect of spin and charge carriers for the Mg<sup>2+</sup>-substituted into Cr<sup>3+</sup> sites of CuCrO2 delafossite on thermoelectric properties. The CuCr0.98Mg0.02O2 sample was synthesized by a solid state reaction. The starting powder CuO, Cr2O3 and MgO were ball milled with poly vinyl alcohol solution for 24 h. The ball milled powder was pressed and sintered in air atmosphere at temperature 1050 C for 6 h. The crystal structure was characterized by XRD, TGA, XPS and the thermoelectric properties were measured at high temperature. The XRD displayed peaks of the pure phase CuCrO2 structure as hexagonal delafossite-type structure space group: Rm. The Seebeck coefficient of the samples displayed positive sign as p-type (hole) conductor. The XPS results displayed Mg<sup>2+</sup>, Cu<sup>1+</sup>, Cr<sup>3+</sup> and Cr<sup>4+</sup> ion states. The Mg<sup>2+</sup> induced mixed-valance Cr<sup>3+</sup>/Cr<sup>4+</sup> states resulting in enhanced Seebeck coefficient due to a strong correlation of the spin-entropy. The experimental results of Seebeck value were close to calculated results by the extended Heikes formula confirming of the strong correlation effect. In addition, the Mg-doped CuCrO2 resulted in increased electrical conductivity and reduced thermal conductivity with increasing temperature. These indicate that the Mg<sup>2+</sup>-substituted for Cr<sup>3+</sup> of CuCrO2 delafossite enhance the thermoelectric properties. © 2015

    Spherical-like calcium dihydrogenphosphate monohydrate (Ca(H<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>)<inf>2</inf>•H<inf>2</inf>O) nanostructure was successfully prepared by the mixing of calcium carbonate and phosphoric in aqueous-methanol media at ambient temperature for 30 min. Three thermal decomposition step and higher stability at over 800°C of the prepared sample are different from the earlier works. Spherical-like Ca(H<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>)<inf>2</inf>•H<inf>2</inf>O nanostructure with diameter < 100 nm confirmed by SEM may be important for potential applications. This method of synthesis by aqueous-methanol media is a fast and simple method and it is expected to be applicable for the synthesis of other nanocrystalline calcium phosphates. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.

    Barium hydrogenphosphate, BaHPO<inf>4</inf> was synthesized for the first time through simple and rapid method using BaCO<inf>3</inf>-H<inf>3</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>-NaOH, pH =9.0 at room temperature for 30 min. The studied BaHPO<inf>4</inf> decomposed in a single well-defined stage via deprotonated hydrogenphosphate reactions, revealed by TG/DTG and DSC techniques. The calculated wavenumbers based on DSC peak were comparable with FTIR results, which support the breaking bonds of P-OH (HPO<inf>4</inf><sup>2-</sup>) in the deprotonated hydrogenphosphate reactions. The thermodynamic functions (ΔH*, ΔG*, and ΔS*) for the deprotonated hydrogenphosphate reactions calculated from DSC data indicate that the deprotonated HPO<inf>4</inf><sup>2-</sup> reaction occur a lower-energy pathway and spontaneous process. The FTIR, XRD and SEM data of the studied BaHPO<inf>4</inf> and its decomposed product Ba<inf>4</inf>P<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf> are also reported. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
