Abstract
Strontium titanates were prepared with different morphologies by varying the ratio of solvents used during the synthesis. The effects of morphology and solvent (ethylene glycol to water) ratio were investigated both on the structure and photocatalytic activity of the samples. Structural properties were determined by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and nitrogen adsorption measurements. The photocatalytic activity of the samples was evaluated by the photocatalytic oxidation of phenol and by the photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide. The ratio of solvents notably influenced the morphology, strontium carbonate content, primary crystallite size, and specific surface area of the samples. Samples prepared at low ethylene glycol to water ratios were spherical, while the ones prepared at high ethylene glycol to water ratios could be characterized predominantly by lamellar morphology. The former samples were found to have the highest efficiency for phenol degradation, while the sample with the most well-defined lamellar morphology proved to be the best for CO2 reduction.

Abstract
In this study, the characteristics of different types of nanosheet membranes were reviewed in order to determine which possessed the optimum propensity for antifouling during water purification. Despite the tremendous amount of attention that nanosheets have received in recent years, their use to render membranes that are resistant to fouling has seldom been investigated. This work is the first to summarize the abilities of nanosheet membranes to alleviate the effect of organic and inorganic foulants during water treatment. In contrast to other publications, single nanosheets, or in combination with other nanomaterials, were considered to be nanostructures. Herein, a broad range of materials beyond graphene-based nanomaterials is discussed. The types of nanohybrid membranes considered in the present work include conventional mixed matrix membranes, stacked membranes, and thin-film nanocomposite membranes. These membranes combine the benefits of both inorganic and organic materials, and their respective drawbacks are addressed herein. The antifouling strategies of nanohybrid membranes were divided into passive and active categories. Nanosheets were employed in order to induce fouling resistance via increased hydrophilicity and photocatalysis. The antifouling properties that are displayed by two-dimensional (2D) nanocomposite membranes also are examined.

Abstract
Different metalorganic lamellar hybrid materials based on associated nanoribbons were synthesized by the use of alkyl-benzyl monocarboxylate spacers, containing alkyl tails with variable lengths, which acted like structural growing inhibitors. These molecular agents were perpendicularly located and coordinated to aluminium nodes in the interlayer space, controlling the separation between individual structure sub-units. The hybrid materials were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), chemical and thermogravimetrical analysis (TGA), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared spectroscopy (IR), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM)/transmission electron microscopy (TEM), showing their physicochemical properties. The specific capacity of the metalorganic materials to be exfoliated through post-synthesis treatments, using several solvents due to the presence of 1D structure sub-units and a marked hydrophobic nature, was also evidenced.

Abstract
Using TEM and EFTEM, we showed that titanate nanoribbons are made of an assembly of smaller ribbons juxtaposed and piled up on one another. We also studied their morphological, structural and chemical characteristics using XRD, Raman and XPS. New insights were obtained regarding their forming mechanism and structural integrity.
