sno nanoparticles were synthesized using microwave–assisted hydrothermal method. it was noticed that at 300 and 600 watt microwave power, sno formed and remained in the tetragonal phase. at 900 watt, sno2 started appearing and a mixture of sno and sno2 phases coexisted. the particle size varied from ~2 to ~13 nm at 300 to 900 watt radiation power. the uv-v absorption spectra showed the excitoni...

SnO nanoparticles were synthesized using microwave–assisted hydrothermal method. It was noticed that at 300 and 600 watt microwave power, SnO formed and remained in the tetragonal phase. At 900 watt, SnO2 started appearing and a mixture of SnO and SnO2 phases coexisted. The particle size varied from ~2 to ~13 nm at 300 to 900 watt radiation power. The UV-V absorption spectra showed the excitoni...

Microwave synthesis of two porous nickel glutarates was compared with conventional hydrothermal synthesis. The cubic nickel glutarate, [Ni20(C5H6O4)20(H2O)8] x 40 H2O (1), was synthesized by conventional electrical heating in several hours or days, depending on synthesis temperature. Crystallization was greatly accelerated by microwave irradiation, in which more stable, tetragonal nickel glutar...

This critical review summarises and analyses all the work conducted to date on use of microwave-assisted hydrothermal processes for conversion biomass into hydrochar, bio-crude (bio-oil) valuable chemicals.

Microwave radiation, an electromagnetic radiation, is widely use as a source of heating in organic synthesis. The basic mechanisms observed in microwave assisted synthesis are dipolar polarization and conduction. Microwave assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) has emerged as a new “lead” in organic synthesis. The technique offers simple, clean, fast, efficient, and economic for the synthesis of a l...
