Goal of this study was to investigate how Nd3+ ions (0-1 wt.%) influence on prepared powders and samples of co-doped 8/65/35 PLZT ceramics, like its structure, microstructure, luminescent spectra and ferroelectric properties.
For the diffraction pattern fitting a structure model from ICDD data base was used (PDF standards, N° 00-029-0775; 00-029-0776; 00-046-0336).
One can see, neodymium co- doping (0,5-1 wt-%) does not change the symmetry the perovskite lattice structure of 8/65/35 PLZT.

Dyes usually have a synthetic origin and complex aromatic molecular structures which make them more stable and more difficult to biodegrade.
X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was carried out to identify any crystallographic structure in the bio-char sample using a computer-controlled X-ray diffractometer.
From Fig. 1, the peaks at 2q= 20°–30° refer to the stacking structure of aromatic layers (graphite 002), and the broadening has originated from the small dimensions of crystallites perpendicular to aromatic layers.

Introduction Since icosahedral phase (I-phase) as a new type of crystal structure was found, lots of attentions have been paid to investigate their unusual and interesting chemical and physical properties [1-3], such as, high hardness, low surface friction, special transport property, high hydrogen storage ability, which are originated from the particularity to crystal in a forbidden rotational symmetry structure.
It was believed that the local structure of Ti-based I-phase was related to the Bergman two-shell atomic cluster, and Bergman cluster contains a lot of favorable sites for hydrogen atom, implying I-phase has better physical characteristics for hydrogen storage application.
Such as, thermodynamical stability, suitable chemistry affinity and low cost [5].

Most efforts are put on designing a new catalytic structure as Pd-based catalysts which are good catalysts for low temperature.
Structure characterization and the chemical surface analysis of the synthesized catalysts Figure 2 The XRD pattern (A) and XPS spectra of Pd 3d (B), Co 2p (C), and Ni 2p (D) region of Pd/G, PdCoNi/G, PdCoNi/G calcined at 300°C, 400°C, and 500°C In figure 2 (A), the diffraction peaks at 40.2°, 44.1°, 68.8°, and 82.8° were corresponding to the characteristic peaks (111), (200), (220), and (311) of fcc Pd, respectively (PDF no.03-065-2867).
These results suggested that the addition of Co and Ni did not change the crystalline structure of Pd and the crystalline phase of Co and Ni were not present in the catalysts.

While the liquid phase may have different chemical compositions, which significantly affect the structure and composition of the resulting nanoobjects.
The acting mechanism of additives, after it introduction into a liquid medium such as "industrial oil", radically differs from surface friction modifiers and consists in the structuring of molecules of the environment around objects with high surface energy.
Just as, for example, the Sun "structures" the Solar System around itself: Therefore, in contrast to the "primitive" friction modifiers of the "antifriction powder" type, the required concentration of additives obtained using proposed synthesis method is much lower, which positively affects many aspects.

As functional materials, phthalocyanines, with distinctive structure and excellent light, heat and chemical stability, display wide perspective in new and high-tech areas such as catalytic chemistry, photochemistry, electrochemistry, information and material science and medical science[14,15].
It was because that the -COO− groups of Fe-phthalocyanine were combined with the -COO− groups of CMC by means of Fe3+ to form a metal chelate polymer with a net structure.
After modification, the -COO− groups of Fe-phthalocyanine were combined with the -COO− groups of CMC by means of Fe3+ to form a metal chelate polymer with a net structure, which made a significant contribution to improving mechanical property.
