In recent years, zinc oxid nanotubes have attracted much attention. The direct use of , zinc oxidnanotubes modified by SiO2 as recoverable catalysts for organic reactions is very rare. The catalystswere characterized by XRD. The average particle size of ZnO catalysts is 57 nm and there are highdensitydefects on nanotubes surfaces . A simple and efficient method for the imidazol derivativessynth...

ZnO buffer layer Silicon substrates with (100) orientation were coated with a ZnO buffer layer in order to initiate ZnO nanowire growth and to ensure c-axis alignment. No attempt was made to remove the substrate native oxide layer in any case. Firstly a ZnO seed layer is deposited by drop coating a 5 mM solution of zinc acetate in absolute ethanol [1]. 3.5 μl of this solution is applied per cm ...

Two hydroxy double salts (HDSs), zinc copper hydroxy acetate (ZCA) and zinc nickel hydroxy acetate (ZNA), and an analogous layered compound, zinc hydroxy acetate (ZHA), have been prepared by a coprecipitation method. The thermal degradation of these materials was characterized via thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), and TGA coupled with Fourier transform infra...

In the recent era zinc oxide nanoparticles attracted the researchers due to their unique properties and applications in optoelectronic devices. Zinc oxide nanoparticles are the semiconductor materials having band gap energy 3.37 eV and very large excitation binding energy (60meV) at room temperature. Also it is non-toxic, environmental friendly and transparent to visible range of spectrum. In t...

The study describes the synthesis and characterization of zinc(II) minoxidil nanocomposite (1). The reaction between zinc(II) acetate, minoxidil, {C9H15N5O=minoxidil=(2,4-diamino-6-piperidine-1-yl) pyrimidine N-oxide)} as a ligand and KI as bridging agent, in methanol at 60°C leads to the formation of nano-sized Zn(II) minoxidil nanocomposite, 1. Characterization of (1) was carried out by eleme...

The objective of this research was to develop novel cellulose acetate (biopolymer) composite materials with an excellent antimicrobial activity by embedding molybdenum trioxide particles with unique high specific surface area. High surface area molybdenum trioxide particles were prepared from freshly precipitated molybdenum trioxide dihydrate (MoO3 ·2H2 O) and subsequent calcination at 340°C un...
