Nanostructured zinc oxide is intensively studied semiconductor showing photocatalytical activity. There are several precursors which can be used for the preparation of nanostructured zinc oxide like zinc acetate, zinc sulphate and many others. Zinc chloride is another compound which can serve as a zinc source for zinc oxide preparation. Nowadays the environmental aspects connected to applicatio...

Various surface structures and polarities of one-dimensional nanostructures offer additional control in synthesizing heterostructures suitable for optoelectronic and electronic applications. In this work, we report synthesis and characterization of ZnO-CdO nanorod-based heterostructures grown on a-plane sapphire. The heterojunction formed on the sidewall surface of the nanorod shows that wurtzi...

Ultra-violet protection and self-cleaning action of nano zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium di-oxide (TiO2) with acrylic binder has been assessed on the cotton fabric using pad-dry-cure method. Different precursors, such as zinc acetate and titanium tetrachloride have been used to synthesize nanoparticles. Zinc acetate is synthesized into nanoparticle by wet chemical technique and titanium tetrachlo...

The synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles has attracted considerable interest because of their unique properties and potential applications in a variety of solid state devices, catalytic media etc. By using water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsions, nanodroplets of water were used as chemical reactor to synthesize nanoparticles of zinc oxide. Addition of reducing agent ((NH4)2CO3) and zinc salt (Zn(NO3)2) fol...
