nano-sized titanium dioxide tio2 powder was prepared by new wet chemical route from its precursor titanium (iv) chloride (ticl4) as precursor with isopropoxy alcohol in presence of nitric acid under ambient condition. their morphologies, phase compositions and components of the tio2 nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (tem), field emission scanning electron micr...

The experimental conditions were optimized for the synthesis of amorphous SiO2 particles by the reaction of neutralization of sodium silicate solution with H2SO4 solution. Amorphous SiO2 particles were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, FE-SEM, EDS and microelectrophoresis. The amorphous peak was located at 2θ = 21.8 in the XRD pattern. Primary SiO2 particles were ~ 15 to ~ 30 nm in size and they agg...

zinc oxide (zno) nanopowders were synthesized by the sol–gel method from an ethanol solution of zinc sulfate heptahydrate in the presence of diethylene glycol surfactant. detailed structural and microstructural investigations were carried out using x-ray diffraction (xrd), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (hrtem), field emission scanning electron microscopy (fe-sem), fourier tra...

In this study, two kinds of cellulose derivatives (polyanionic cellulose (PAC) and hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC)) were selected as stabilizers of Pd/Fe nanoparticles (NPs) to investigate their influences on the debromination performances of 2,2',4,4'-tretrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE47). Field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) images revealed that the cellulose-stabilized Pd/Fe...
