he effect of preparation conditions on the composition and structure of three-dimensional composite nanomaterials based on opal matrixes (packing of spherical particles of amorphous SiO2) has been studied. The experimental part of the work was performed with the samples of opal matrixes with a diameter of spherical SiO2 particles equal ~260 nm. Composite nanomaterials were formed by repeatedly filling of opal matrixes with solutions of metal salts (oxides) and holding the samples at 623–723 K, and after that, they were annealed at 973–1473 K. Chemical reactions and phase transformations of substances in nanopores of opal matrixes depended on the annealing parameters, and chemical properties of intermediate compounds. There was confirmed the formation of SiO2 crystallites in nanopores of composite nanomaterials, as well as the products of their interaction with SiO2. Composite nanomaterials with filling of opal matrix nanopores with metals, ferroelectrics and piezoelectrics, multiferroic and other substances have been obtained. The resulting composite nanomaterials had ordered components (substances) with a given composition and crystallite size in the range of 10–90 nm. The influence of the composition and structure of composite nanomaterials containing ferromagnetically ordered nanostructured magnetic orthovanadates of rare-earth metals, Ni-Zn-Fe-, Co-Zn-Fe-spinel, and also Co and Ni together, on their properties was demonstrated. Present research was executed under financial support by RFBR (Grant N 18-29-02076). |
