The reusability of CoFe 2 O 4 @ZnO core–shell nanoparticles (NPs) for the photocatalytic degradation methylene blue (MB) under UV radiation was successfully investigated. NPs with various –to–ZnO concentration ratios were synthesized as magnetic photocatalysts. X-ray diffraction spectra showed that had a cubic spinel ferrite phase structure and hexagonal wurtzite ZnO. Fourier-transform infrared...

Abstract Pure ZnO and Cr-doped nanoparticles have been synthesized via a facile chemical co-precipitation route their structural, thermal characteristics were discussed systematically. In the experimental producer, doping concentration has varied range, 0.05–0.1 M, while calcined at 600 °C. The influence of Cr-doping on physical was investigated addressed. As-prepared samples analyzed XRD, FTIR...

efforts to enhance oil recovery through wettability alteration by nanoparticles have been attracted inrecent years. however, many basic questions have been ambiguous up until now. nanoparticlespenetrate into pore volume of porous media, stick on the core surface, and by creating homogeneouswater-wet area, cause to alter wettability. this work introduces the new concept of adding znonanoparticle...

Uniform hydrogel microparticles with ZIF-8 nanoparticles for molecular co-confinement of cascade enzymes are developed by microfluidics to achieve enhanced stability and reusability under harsh conditions.

In this study, the effect of limewater on strength assessments and percentage of water absorption of concrete incorporating ZnO 2 nanoparticles has been investigated. Portland cement was partially replaced by ZnO 2 nanoparticles with the average particle size of 15 nm and the specimens were cured in water and saturated limewater for specific ages. The results indicate that ZnO 2 nanoparticles u...

In this work, the synthesis, characterization, and photocatalytic performance of zinc oxide/activated carbon fiber nanocomposites prepared by hydrothermal method were investigated. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NP) deposited as seeds on porous activated (ACF) substrates. Then, nanorods (ZnO-NR) successfully grown assembled fibers’ surface in various patterns to form ZnO-NR/ACF nanocomposites. T...

This work investigates the effect of the sequential availability of ZnO nanoparticles, (nanorods of ∼40nm) loaded within a degradable poly(lactic acid) (PLLA) matrix, in cell differentiation. The system constitutes a dynamic surface, in which nanoparticles are exposed as the polymer matrix degrades. ZnO nanoparticles were loaded into PLLA and the system was measured at different time points to ...

To provide a front transparent electrode for use in highly efficient hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin-film solar cells, porous flat layer and micro-patterns of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticle (NP) layers were prepared through ultraviolet nanoimprint lithography (UV-NIL) and deposited on Al-doped ZnO (AZO) layers. Through this, it was found that a porous micro-pattern of ZnO NPs disper...

nanoparticles of the zno and tio2 were synthesized and the physicochemical properties of the compounds were characterized by ir, x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the xrd patterns of the zno and tio2 nanoparticles could be indexed to hexagonal and rutile phase, respectively. aggregated nanoparticles of zno and tio2 with spher...

The crystal structures of different forms of TiO2 and those of BaTiO3, ZnO, SnO2, WO3, CuO, Fe2O3, Fe3O4, ZrO2 and Al2O3 nanoparticles have been deduced by powder X-ray diffraction. Their optical edges have been obtained by UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectra. The photocatalytic activities of these oxides and also those of SiO2 and SiO2 porous to oxidize iodide ion have been determined and c...
