This study proposes a long period fiber grating (LPFG) with a zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticle layer for use as a carbon dioxide (CO2) gas sensor. Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching, corona treatment, and electrostatic spraying were used to fabricate this ZnO nanoparticle-coated LPFG CO2 gas sensor. Repeated gas sensor tests showed that, when a 15% CO2 mixture was injected (0.2 L/min) into a...

elastomer compound based on nr/br was prepared using different kinds of nano-zno and zno. the effect of zinc oxide as an activator of sulfur cure on the mechanical and morphological properties of the compound was studied. the result of the mechanical properties showed that the tensile strength, elongation-at-break, resilience, and abrasion resistance of the compound prepared by zno (4 phr) are ...

in this paper, synthesis of the flower-like zinc oxide was performed using microwave assisted dicationic ionic liquid [mmp(im)2 ]br2 . the polycrystalline flower-like zinc oxide nanostructure was obtained when a suitable mole ratio (ionic liquid /zinc acetate) and short duration microwave was used. x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), and photoluminescence (pl) spectra w...

in this research, acute toxicity (lc) of zinc oxide nanoparticle on beluga (huso huso) andcommon carp (cyprinus carpio) was studied. the experiment was conducted using theorganization for economic co-operation and development (no. 202) method. for bothspecies, 96hlc10 was determined to be more than 200 mg/l. to assess the effects of zinc oxidenanoparticles on blood factors, leukocyte index coun...

in order to examine the effects of silver, zinc, nickel, zinc- copper nanoparticles on germination, seedling establishment, and enzyme activity of alfalfa seeds, a factorial experimental was conducted in a randomized complete design with three replications in the seed laboratory, college of agriculture and natural resources, university of tehran in karaj. the objective of this study was to dete...
