چکیده
We report the synthesis of 2 nm copper nanocrystals (Cu NCs) via a microwave-assisted polyol method without using additional protective and reducing agents. The Cu NCs are oxidation resistant and exhibit photoluminescence and highly stable properties in a colloidal dispersion.

Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of kappa-Carrageenan Beads Containing Silver Nanoparticles with Dye Adsorption and Antibacterial Properties
In this work, we used a simple and totally green method for synthesizing silver nanoparticles using kappa-carrageenan as reducing and stabilizing agent. The beads were prepared in aqueous medium by microwave heating, and then followed by cross-linking with K+ cations without using any additional toxic and expensive chemical agents. The preparation method of the carrageenan-based beads is easy, ...
متن کاملEffect of Sorbitol/Oxidizer Ratio on Microwave Assisted Solution Combustion Synthesis of Copper Based Nanocatalyst for Fuel Cell Grade Hydrogen Production
Steam reforming of methanol is one of the promising processes for on-board hydrogen production used in fuel cell applications. Due to the time and energy consuming issues associated with conventional synthesis methods, in this paper a quick, facile, and effective microwave-assisted solution combustion method was applied for fabrication of copper-based nanocatalysts to convert methanol to hydrog...
متن کاملSynthesis of ZnO Nanocrystals with Hexagonal (Wurtzite) Structure in Water Using Microwave Irradiation
Nanocrystals of ZnO were prepared by microwave irradiation using Zn (II) acetate and triethanol amin (TEA) as the starting materials and water as solvent. The nanocrystals of ZnO with hexagonal (Wurtzite) structure were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-Vis absorption and FTIR Spectroscopy techniques.
متن کاملPreparation of the Cd1 2 xZnxSe alloys in the nanophase form using microwave irradiation
Nanoparticles of the Cd1 2 xZnxSe alloy with different stoichiometries (x ~ 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) have been prepared using the microwave-assisted polyol method. In this simple and quick reaction the polyol (ethylene glycol) is both the solvent and the reducing agent. XRD studies show that nanoparticles are formed in the wurtzite (hexagonal) form with an average diameter of the nanocrystals of 5–8 nm. ...
متن کاملMicrowave Assisted Synthesis of Nano Zeolite Seed for Synthesis Membrane and Investigation of its Permeation Properties for H2 Separation
MFI-type zeolite membranes (ZSM-5) were prepared on α-alumina tubular supports and tested for separation of H2/CO mixtures. The effect of pressure and temperature on H2 and CO flows and selectivity was investigated. The best results in this work were obtained with a ZSM-5 membrane prepared over a porous α-alumina tube seeded with zeolite nanocrystals synthesized with m...
