CoSb3 with nanoscale was synthesized by Cross-coprecipitation. A precursor consisting of antimony oxide and cobalt hydrate was prepared by the reaction of CoCl2, SbCl3 and both precipitators at room temperature. The precursor was reduced in thermal treatment under hydrogen atmosphere whereby the CoSb3 was thus obtained. The parameters especially reducing temperature and atmosphere (content of H2) influence the constituent phases and particle size of product significantly. The single phase CoSb3 with the average grain size of 60-70 nm was obtained after reduced at 723 K for 2 h with pure H2. Nanoscale CoSb3 powder was used as starting materials, and bulk CoSb 3 compound was prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The effect of grains size on thermal conductivity was investigated.

A novel approach was developed to prepare Ni-coated TiB2 cermet. Fine Ni particles with mean particle size of about 80 nm were impacted onto coarse TiB2 particles having a mean size of about 5 (un to form Ni-coated TiB2 powder by Hybridization. The conventional blended TiB2-Ni powder, as well as Ni-coated TiB2 powder, was sintered by hot pressing (HP) method and Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) method. Compared with the conventional blended TiB2-Ni cermet, particle features and mechanical properties of the Ni-coated TiB2 cermet were investigated. The microstructure analysis reveals that the thickness of Ni film is around 4 nm. It is concluded that the mechanical properties of Ni-coated TiB2 cermet are superior to the blended TiB2-Ni cermet.

YSZ-NiCr powder was synthesized by gel-reduction process at 850°C for 2 h. YSZ-NiCr cermet was fabricated by hot-press sintering at 1350°C for 1 h. The powder has a mean particle size of 42 nm and the sintered specimen has a fine and homogeneous microstructure with a mean crystalline size of 0.2 μm. The conductivity has a tendency to decrease with increasing temperature. This behavior can be accounted for that there are two conduction paths through the cermet, an electronic path through the Ni/Cr metal phase and an ionic path through the ZrO2-Y2O3 phase. The objective of this work is to give a possible improvement in the cermet anode of SOFC.

Ag1-xPbmSbTe2+m (m = 6, 10, 18;x = 0, 0.5, 0.75) compounds were prepared by melting-spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. The effects of m and x on the thermoelectric properties of the compounds were investigated. The results indicate that all samples are n-type conduction. For Ag1-xPb18SbTe20 (x = 0, 0.5, 0.75), the electrical conductivity decreases, whereas Seebeck coefficient increases, with increasing Ag concentration. For AgPbmSbTe 2+m (m = 6, 10, 18), as m increases, the Seebeck coefficient slightly decreases and the electrical conductivity increases first, with a maximum at m =10, and then decreases. The thermal conductivity increases with increasing m.

Single-phase double atoms filling skutterudite compounds were synthesized by using melting reaction method. The effects of double atoms filling on the structure and lattice thermal conductivity of skutterudite compounds were investigated. The results of Rietveld refinement indicate that Ca mCenFexCo4-xSb12 compounds possess skutterudite structure and the Sb-icosahedron voids have been partially filled with filling atoms. With the same filling fraction, the lattice thermal conductivity of CamCenFexCo 4-xSb12 is smaller than that of CamFe xCo4-xSb12 and CenFe xCo4-xSb12, furthermore, when the total filling fraction (m+n) is about 0.3 and respective filling fraction of Ca and Ce are approximately equal, the lattice thermal conductivity is the least.

Radix salvia miltiorrhiza is a commonly used herbal medicine in China, and tanshinone IIA is one of the major active ingredients. Nano Radix salvia miltiorrhiza particles were successfully prepared by high speed centrifugal sheering (HSCS) technology, and the prepared nanoparticles suspension was subsequently spray-dried. The different properties of nano particles and raw powder were systematically studied by laser light scattering granulometric analyzer, TEM, SEM and FTIR. The extractive quantity of tanshinone IIA was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results illustrate that raw Radix salvia miltiorrhiza powder can be ultrafinely ground to nanosize within 50min, and the molecular structure of active ingredients doesn't change after being ground. Furthermore, the active ingredients can dissolve out directly and fully, and the extractive ratio of tanshinone IIA increases 28.6% by HSCS processing. It is valuable to combine nanotechnology and TCM to improve the bioavailability and rapid releasing.
