After about three decades of development, the polyol process is now widely recognized and practised as a unique soft chemical method for the preparation of a large variety of nanoparticles which can be used in important technological fields. It offers many advantages: low cost, ease of use and, very importantly, already proven scalability for industrial applications. Among the different classes of inorganic nanoparticles which can be prepared in liquid polyols, metals were the first reported. This review aims to give a comprehensive account of the strategies used to prepare monometallic nanoparticles and multimetallic materials with tailored size and shape. As regards monometallic materials, while the preparation of noble as well as ferromagnetic metals is now clearly established, the scope of the polyol process has been extended to the preparation of more electropositive metals, such as post-transition metals and semi-metals. The potential of this method is also clearly displayed for the preparation of alloys, intermetallics and core–shell nanostructures with a very large diversity of compositions and architectures.

The polyol process: a unique method for easy access to metal nanoparticles with tailored sizes, shapes and compositions.

Hydrogen bond interactions of ethyl acetate with methyl Cellosolve: FTIR spectroscopic and dielectric relaxation studies

To investigate the effective separation of actinides (Ans) from lanthanides (Lns), single-stage batch extraction experiments were performed with a novel extractant, tetradodecyl-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diamide (TDdPTDA) with various diluents such as 3-nitrobenzotrifluoride (F-3), nitrobenzene, and n-dodecane for Am, Cm, and Lns. The extraction kinetics with TDdPTDA was rapid enough to perform continuous extraction experiments using mixer-settler extractors. The slopes of the distribution ratio versus the TDdPTDA concentration and the distribution ratio versus the nitric acid concentration were similar for F-3 and nitrobenzene systems, but different from the n-dodecane system. These differences were attributed to the characteristics of the diluents. This study revealed high distribution ratios of Am (DAm) and Cm (DCm) for TDdPTDA, with the high separation factors (SFs) of Am from Lns enough for their separation.
