The role of particle size of particulate nano-zinc oxide wood preservatives on termite mortality and leach resistance
Historically most residential wood preservatives were aqueous soluble metal formulations, but recently metals ground to submicron size and dispersed in water to give particulate formulations have gained importance. In this study, the specific role nano-zinc oxide (ZnO) particle size and leach resistance plays in termite mortality resulting from exposure to particulate ZnO-treated wood was inves...
متن کاملWeatherability and Leach Resistance of Wood Impregnated with Nano-Zinc Oxide
Southern pine specimens vacuum-treated with nano-zinc oxide (nano-ZnO) dispersions were evaluated for leach resistance and UV protection. Virtually, no leaching occurred in any of the nano-ZnO-treated specimens in a laboratory leach test, even at the highest retention of 13 kg/m(3). However, specimens treated with high concentrations of nano-ZnO showed 58-65% chemical depletion after 12 months ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Nano-Sized Hexagonal and Spherical Nanoparticles of Zinc Oxide
ZnO plays an important role in many semiconductors technological aspects. Here, direct precipitation method was employed for the synthesis of nano-sized hexagonal ZnO particles, which is based on chemical reactions between raw materials used in the experiment. ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by calcinations of the ZnO precursor precipitates at 250 ˚C for 3hours. ...
متن کاملSynthesis of Zinc (II) Oxide Wurtzite Nano Crystals Via Zn (II) Minoxidil Nanocomposite As a New Precoursur
The study describes the synthesis and characterization of zinc(II) minoxidil nanocomposite (1). The reaction between zinc(II) acetate, minoxidil, {C9H15N5O=minoxidil=(2,4-diamino-6-piperidine-1-yl) pyrimidine N-oxide)} as a ligand and KI as bridging agent, in methanol at 60°C leads to the formation of nano-sized Zn(II) minoxidil nanocomposite, 1. Characterization of (1) was carried out by eleme...
متن کاملZinc Requirements of Japanese Quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) by Assessing Dose- Evaluating Response of Zinc Oxide Nano-Particle Supplementation
This study was conducted to determine the effects of various doses and particle sizes (micro or nano) of dietary zinc and zinc oxide on growth performance, serum enzyme activities, carcass characteristics, and zinc requirements in Japanese quails. A total of 576 day-old Japanese quails (both sexes) were housed in 36 deep litter floor pens. Birds received a basal corn–soybean meal diet that was ...
