Mini submersible pump assisted sonochemical reactors: Large-scale synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles and nanoleaves for antibacterial and anti-counterfeiting applications

Sonochemical-Assisted Synthesis of Copper Oxide Nanoparticles and Its Application as Humidity Sensor

Cupric oxide nanostructures were synthesized via a simple reaction between copper nitrate and sodium hydroxide using a sonochemical-assisted method. The synthesized CuO was then characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, ultraviolet-visible and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Our studies show that the CuO na...

Synthesis,characterization and Antibacterial Properties of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles

Antibacterial and anti-biofilm effects of microwave-assisted biologically synthesized zinc nanoparticles

Objective(s): The present study aimed to investigate the antibacterial and anti-biofilm potential of the non-oxidized form of zinc nanoparticles (Zn NPs) prepared by a ‘green approach’ using the Lavandula vera extract with microwave irradiation.Materials and Methods: After synthesis of Zn NPs, the microdilution and disk diffusion methods was applied for antimicrobial evaluation followed b...

Sonochemical assisted synthesis of SrFe12O19 nanoparticles.

We present the synthesis of M-type strontium hexaferrite by sonochemistry and annealing. The effects of the sonication time and thermal energy on the crystal structure and magnetic properties of the obtained powders are presented. Strontium hexagonal ferrite (SrFe12O19) was successfully prepared by the ultrasonic cavitation (sonochemistry) of a complexed polyol solution of metallic acetates and...

Zinc oxide nano-crystals assisted for carbon dioxide gas sensing; prepared by solvothermal and sonochemical methods

ZnO nanostructures of different methods and sizes were grown in a controlled manner using a simple hydrothermal and sonochemical technique. Controlling the content of concentration and temperature of the reaction mixture, spherical nanoparticles ZnO structures could be synthesized at temperatures 100-150 °C with excellent reproducibility in solvothermal and at different power and time in sonoch...
