Synthesis of minimal-size ZnO nanoparticles through sol-gel method: Taguchi design optimisation
(
Elsevier BV
, 2015 , Article)
Zinc oxide (ZnO) has excellent potential to be used in water and wastewater treatment, either as a photocatalyst or in membrane incorporation. In this work, the synthesis of smaller ZnO NPs through a sol-gel approach was ...
High Excitation Intensity Opens a New Trapping Channel in Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Perovskite Nanoparticles
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
We investigated the excited-state dynamics of CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite nanoparticles (NPs) and bulk crystals under various excitation intensity regimes using transient absorption spectroscopy. We confirmed the sub-band gap ...

Herein, we report the synthesis of PdZn nanoparticle (NP) electrocatalysts for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR). The PdZn NPs were synthesized by solution combustion synthesis in the presence of Pd(NO3)2·xH2O, ...
Heat transfer enhancement of nanofluids using iron nanoparticles decorated carbon nanotubes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Enhancing heat transfer in thermal fluid systems can contribute significantly towards the improvement of thermal efficiency resulting in reducing energy consumption and hence carbon emission. Conventional fluids like water ...
Synthesis and characterisation of Co2+-incorporated ZnO nanoparticles prepared through a sol-gel method
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
The properties of ZnO nanoparticles were modified by doping them with cobalt ions (Co2+) in various compositions through a sol-gel route. The Co2+-doped ZnO nanoparticles were characterised using X-ray diffraction (XRD), ...
