摘要
Controlled hydrolysis and condensation of a mixture of vanadyl-tris-n-propoxide, VO(OPr)(3), and niobium pentaethoxide, [Nb(OEt)(5)](2), at 5 degrees C in propanol yields clear and transparent gets in which the ratio of V:Nb is 1: 1, 1:4.5 or 1:9. Oxalic acid and low temperatures are used to slow down the rate of condensation processes. At 800 degrees C, the thermal decomposition of a gel with the composition 1:9 forms a thermodynamically metastable, new phase of the composition VNb9O25. At lower temperatures, metastable solid solutions with TT-Nb2O5 structure (600 degrees C) and M-Nb2O5 structure (700 degrees C) are formed from the amorphous xerogel. The new VNb9O25 phase is structurally related to M-Nb2O5. The solid solution with M-Nb2O5 structure acts structure directing, leading preferentially to a monoclinic low-temperature form of VNb9O25. The full transformation of this metastable phase to the well known tetragonal VNb9O25 requires a annealing temperature of about 1000 degrees C. (C) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
