TL;DR: The proposed sol-gel synthesis of Ca CO3 proved to create unprecedented size of CaCO3 nanoparticles with striking size uniformity, and clearly demonstrate their ability to incorporate hydrophobic components in a nanocomposite matrix converting them into amorphous nano sized particles, building stable colloids via release in acidic medium.

TL;DR: Two different methods of adsorption down to the molecular level are investigated, revealing the mechanism of the coordination of different groups of REE (light, medium, heavy) with iminodiacetic acid (IDA) and showing the coexistence of both mechanisms.
Abstract: Silica (SiO2)-derived nanoadsorbents are a powerful and attractive tool for the extraction and separation of rare earth elements (REE) from many perspectives such as reusability, efficiency and minimum impact on the environment. In the present work, we investigated two different methods of adsorption down to the molecular level: (1) the mechanism of the coordination of different groups of REE (light, medium, heavy) with iminodiacetic acid (IDA) was revealed by exploiting models obtained from X-ray crystallography, explaining the selectivity of this type of ligand, and (2) the mechanism of the seeding of RE(OH)3 initiated by SiO2-based nanoadsorbents was investigated by EXAFS, both individually and in combination with mechanism (1), showing the coexistence of both mechanisms. The REE loaded nanoadsorbents possess a high magnetic susceptibility. This property was studied by magnetometry to quantify the REE adsorption efficiency and compared with the values obtained from complexometry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation and stability of oxo-alkoxide carboxylates of titanium permits to design biocompatible systems for encapsulation of binary food quality inorganic dyes, such as Preussian blue, in a temperature sensitive shell.
Abstract: New insight into the factors determining formation and stability of oxo-alkoxide carboxylates of titanium permits to design biocompatible systems for encapsulation of binary food quality inorganic dyes, such as Preussian blue, in a temperature-sensitive shell. The shells are formed spontaneously on hydrolysis of carboxylic acid-modified titanium alkoxides on the surface of water droplets containing the dye components. The complete dye is then prepared through mixing of pre-frozen encapsulated droplets which can be activated by heating to room temperature and also influenced by the storage time. The stable shells are obtained from longer chain carboxylates providing the micellar self-assembly derived constructions with increased colloid stability. The factors influencing the formation of individual crystalline oxo-alkoxide carboxylates—a process competing with the micellar self-assembly and decreasing the stability of the oxo-alkoxide carboxylate shells are discussed with the starting point in the molecular structures of the known compounds and also the new complexes Ti6O6(OAc)6(OiPr)6 · C6H14 (1) and Ti12O12(OAc)6(OnPr)18 (2).

TL;DR: This review summarizes the major progress in the field, including the principles that permit atomically precise synthesis, new types of atomic structures, and unique physical and chemical properties ofatomically precise nanoparticles, as well as exciting opportunities for nanochemists to understand very fundamental science of colloidal nanoparticles.
Abstract: Colloidal nanoparticles are being intensely pursued in current nanoscience research. Nanochemists are often frustrated by the well-known fact that no two nanoparticles are the same, which precludes the deep understanding of many fundamental properties of colloidal nanoparticles in which the total structures (core plus surface) must be known. Therefore, controlling nanoparticles with atomic precision and solving their total structures have long been major dreams for nanochemists. Recently, these goals are partially fulfilled in the case of gold nanoparticles, at least in the ultrasmall size regime (1–3 nm in diameter, often called nanoclusters). This review summarizes the major progress in the field, including the principles that permit atomically precise synthesis, new types of atomic structures, and unique physical and chemical properties of atomically precise nanoparticles, as well as exciting opportunities for nanochemists to understand very fundamental science of colloidal nanoparticles (such as the s...
