unsubstituted phthalocyanines of co, fe and mn supported on zinc oxide nanoparticles were prepared and were well characterized with x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the oxidation of alcohols with tert-butylhydroperoxide (tbhp), in the presence of metallophthalocyanines (mpc) supported on zinc oxide nanoparticles was investigated. these mpc/zno nanocomposites were ...

A novel nanopackaging film was synthesized by incorporating ZnO nanoparticles into a poly-lactic acid (PLA) matrix, and its effect on the quality of fresh-cut apple during the period of preservation was investigated at 4 ± 1 °C for 14 days. Six wt % cinnamaldehyde was added into the nano-blend film. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis showed a rougher cross-section of the nano-blend fil...

In this work, several nano/microscale structures of ZnO including nanospindles, microbundles, microrods, and nanoflowers have been prepared via a facile template and surfactant-free hydrothermal method mediated with ammonium molybdate. It is found that the morphology of ZnO could be readily tailored by simple variation of the concentration of ammonium molybdate. The effects of the concentration...

Zinc oxide [ZnO] thin films are deposited using a radiofrequency magnetron sputtering method under room temperature.
