Applications of Metal Oxides as Nano Particles

Current advancements in applications of chitosan based nano-metal oxides as food preservative materials

Objective(s): A remarkable growing effort has been conducted by several researchers to fabricate food packaging materials which are able to protect foodstuffs and enhance their shelf-life from food-borne pathogens and fungal attack which causes great damage to the food industries. Recent studies has focused on the potential applications of nano-metal oxides in food packaging area. Method...

Tailoring nano-catalysts: turning gold nanoparticles on bulk metal oxides to inverse nano-metal oxides on large gold particles.

Highly active/stable inverse catalysts of nano-oxides on large gold particles are designed and tailored. For the gas-phase oxidation of alcohols as a model reaction, the experimental and theoretical results verify that the catalyst activity depends on the gold-oxide interface, and the anti-sintering feature of such an inverse structure endows the catalyst with high stability.

Nano-Composite Metal Oxides for Electronic Noses

This program aims at producing the next generation of molecular chemical and biological sensors [1]. Is is an interdisciplinary effort to manufacture electronic "noses" from arrays of nanostructured metal oxide sensors, each of which is specific to a given gas. Specificity in nanostructured oxides is achieved by exploiting their structure sensitivity. The ongoing research focuses on the study o...
