Nanofluids are kinds of fluids engineered by dispersing nanoparticles in base fluids, a new challenge for thermal sciences provided by nanotechnology. Due to their excellent characteristics, nanofluids find wide applications in enhancing heat transfer. This paper presents synthesis and characterization of TiO2-CNTs nanocomposites by sonochemical method and investigation of some properties...

Porous Cu(2)O nanospheres with controllable structures were successfully synthesized by using ascorbic acid as the reducing agent and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) as the capping agent via a sonochemical route, which was proved to be a green and convenient method for the controlled synthesis of porous Cu(2)O nanospheres. The crystal phase of the product was determined by the concentration of asco...
