we report the growth by ion exchange synthesis of zns nanoparticles in mcm-41 matrices using zn (ch3coo)2 and na2s starting sources. the final product (zns/mcm-41) was characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) pattern, transmission electron microscopy (tem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), infrared spectrometry (ir) and uv-vis spectroscopy. its crystalline structure and morphology was studie...

We report the preparation and characterization of spinel-structured FeCo2O4 nanoparticles for the efficient and selective oxidation of sulfides. The as-prepared FeCo2O4 nanoparticles were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). According to TEM images, the size of the...

in this study silver/poly vinyl alcohol (pva) and silver/poly vinyl pyrrolidone (pvp) nanocomposites were prepared via reduction of silver salt by employing dmf (n, n`- dimethyl formamide) as a reducing agent. effects of protective agents such as pva and pvp were also described here. we show that the acidic ph of pvp solution also affects the interaction between protective agents and silver nan...

nanocrystalline zinc oxide (zno) powders with different morphology have been successfully synthesized by using different surfactants such as cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (ctab), sodium dodecyl sulphate (sds), and tri ethanol amine (tea) via hydrothermal method. the products were characterized by means of powder x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electr...

Multiwall CNx nanotubes have been prepared by thermal decomposition of acetonitrile over Co/Ni catalytic particles. The fluorination of nanotubes was performed at roomtemperature by using a gaseous mixture of BrF3 and Br2. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated that only the outer shells of CNx nanotubes were fluorinated, whereas the inner shells remained i...

v2o5/sio2 nanoparticles was prepared via an one-pot sol gel method from vanadyl- acetylacetonate and tetraethylorthosilicate in refluxing meoh, followed by calcination at 700 °c for 2 hours. the resultant nanoparticles was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electron microscopy (tem), x-ray diffraction (xrd), tga and ftir techniques. rapid and efficient ar...

sn02 nanowires with diameters of 30 — 200 nm have been synthesized by using carbothermalprocess via a thick film of tin dioxide and carbon powder precursor. the nanowires werecharacterized by x-ray power diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem),transmission electron microscopy (tem) and selected area electron diffraction (saed).the gas sensing characteristic of nanowires toward eth...

caco3 nanoparticles have been synthesized via heat-treatment of a new precursor and solid state reaction. effect of calcinations temperature and quantity of surfactant on particle size has been investigated. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electron microscopy (tem) and fourier transform infrared (ft–ir) spectroscopy.
