example 1

Single phase V2O5

[0358] The synthesis of V2O5 described in this example was performed by laser pyrolysis. The VOCl3 (Strem Chemical, Inc., Newburyport, Mass.) precursor vapor is carried into the reaction chamber by bubbling Ar gas through the VOCl3 liquid stored in a container at room temperature. The reactant gas mixture containing VOCl3, Ar, O2 and C2H4 is introduced into the reactant gas nozzle for injection into the reactant chamber. The reactant gas nozzle had an opening with dimensions as specified in Table 1. C2H4 gas acts as a laser absorbing gas. Argon was used as an inert gas.

[0359] The synthesized vanadium oxide nanoscale particles can be directly handled in the air. The production rate was typically about 5-10 g / hour of nanoparticles. Based on the teachings herein both above and in this example, the particles described in this example can be produced with equivalent properties in appropriate apparatuses and at appropriate conditions at rates in the range(s) of at least...

example 2

Single Phase VO2

[0363] These particles were produced using a similar laser pyrolysis set up as described in Example 1. The reactant gas nozzle had dimensions ⅝ in× 1 / 16 in. For the production of VO2, C2H4 was bubbled through the VOCl3 liquid precursor at room temperature. Representative reaction conditions for the production of this material are described in Table 2.

The identified structure from the diffractogram is almost identical to that of the corresponding bulk material, which has larger par...

example 3

Single Phase VO127

[0366] The experimental arrangement for the production of VO127 is the same as that described in Example 2. Representative conditions used to produce these particles are given in Table 2, above. Based on the teachings herein both above and in this example, the particles described in this example can be produced with equivalent properties in appropriate apparatuses and at appropriate conditions at rates in the range(s) of at least about 35 grams per hour and at higher rates described above.

[0367] The x-ray diffractogram for this material is shown in FIG. 34, and is characteristic of crystalline VO127 material.

Abstract

Methods are described that have the capability of producing submicron / nanoscale particles, in some embodiments dispersible, at high production rates. In some embodiments, the methods result in the production of particles with an average diameter less than about 75 nanometers that are produced at a rate of at least about 35 grams per hour. In other embodiments, the particles are highly uniform. These methods can be used to form particle collections and / or powder coatings. Powder coatings and corresponding methods are described based on the deposition of highly uniform submicron / nanoscale particles.
