Hydrothermal Synthesis of Nanoclusters of ZnS Comprised on Nanowires

  • Zafar Hussain Ibupoto,
  • Kimleang Khun,
  • Xianjie Liu and
  • Magnus Willander

9 September 2013

Cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide cationic (CTAB) surfactant was used as template for the synthesis of nanoclusters of ZnS composed of nanowires, by hydrothermal method. The structural and morphological studies were performed by using X-ray diffraction...

Synthesis of Microspherical LiFePO4-Carbon Composites for Lithium-Ion Batteries

  • Linghui Yu,
  • Dandan Cai,
  • Haihui Wang and
  • Maria-Magdalena Titirici

22 July 2013

This paper reports an “all in one” procedure to produce mesoporous, micro-spherical LiFePO4 composed of agglomerated crystalline nanoparticles. Each nanoparticle is individually coated with a thin glucose-derived carbon layer. The main advantage of...

CO and NO2 Selective Monitoring by ZnO-Based Sensors

  • Mokhtar Hjiri,
  • Lassaad El Mir,
  • Salvatore Gianluca Leonardi,
  • Nicola Donato and
  • Giovanni Neri

5 July 2013

ZnO nanomaterials with different shapes were synthesized, characterized and tested in the selective monitoring of low concentration of CO and NO2 in air. ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) and nanofibers (NFs) were synthesized by a modified sol-gel method in su...
