Nanoscale tetragonal BiOCl samples have been synthesized using Bi[SC12H25]3 and CHCl3 as bismuth and chlorine sources by solvothermal reactions. The structure,
β-Na YF4:Yb3+,Er3+ microrods were synthesized through hydrothermal methods. Polyethylene glycol with molecular weight of 6000 was used as surfactant. A series
Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209), the major congener in the high volume industrial flame retardant mixture 'DecaBDE', has become a ubiquitous environme
