Cover Story: The phase diagram of the Fe-Sb-S system predicts that phase separation should occur at synthesis temperatures below 540 °C. In this paper, we test the efficacy of alloying Fe into Sb2S3 using a molecular precursor approach which may be able to produce Fe-Sb-S alloys with a single pure phase. We find that, whilst we do see a large degree of phase separation, as predicted, we also find that there is some evidence that incorporation of Fe into the Sb2S3 host lattice occurs from this approach which could be a way to produce new magnetic materials.

  • Rein Kuusik,
  • Gizem Hacialioglu-Erlenheim and
  • Andres Trikkel

Apatite (Ap) dissolution in diluted acids is well described in the literature, but in technological processes which use more concentrated acids, the reaction is fast, and it is complicated to follow the process kinetics. The relationship between pH c...

  • Ulrich Häussermann

We investigated the nitridation of reduced BaTiO3, BaTiO2.60H0.08, corresponding to an oxyhydride with a large concentration of O defects (>10%). The material is readily nitrided under flowing N2 gas at temperatures between 400 and 450 °C to yield...

  • Firoz Alam,
  • Floriana Tuna and
  • David J. Lewis

The antimony-iron sulfide system in general does not produce alloys below 540 °C from traditional solid-state methods. However, single source precursors have been known to produce unexpected products that arise from kinetically trapped polymorphs. In...

Dithiocarbamate Complexes of Platinum Group Metals: Structural Aspects and Applications

  • Yee Seng Tan,
  • Chien Ing Yeo,
  • Edward R. T. Tiekink and
  • Peter J. Heard

The incorporation of dithiocarbamate ligands in the preparation of metal complexes is largely prompted by the versatility of this molecule. Fascinating coordination chemistry can be obtained from the study of such metal complexes ranging from their p...
