Nanocrystalline particles of Cerium Oxide (CeO2) have been prepared by the chemical precipitation method using Cerium nitrate and Urea with a molar ratio of 1:2. The results revealed that the formation of CeO2 fine particles is influenced by molar ratio of metal nitrates to fuel. Well faceted CeO2 nanoparticles, were synthesized by thermal-assisted dissociation method […]
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are synthesized with the assistance of water vapor in a horizontal reactor using methane over Co-Mo/MgO catalyst through chemical vapor deposition method. The application of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) technique for modeling the effect of important parameters (i.e. temperature, reaction time and amount of H2O vapor) on the quality of […]
Functionalized Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs) which are modified using nitric acid and sulfuric acid were evaluated to synthesize a uniform nanocomposite via application of TiO2. The f-MWCNTs-TiO2 nanocomposites have been produced via using the chemical simple two-step method. To characterize the structural analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy were […]
It was shown that the structure and particle size of zirconia nanoparticles has been controlled through the homogeneous precipitation process by using templates. Hexamine as the template led to ZrO2 nanoparticles with tetragonal structure, whereas coffee extract favored monoclinic structures. Field Emission Scanning electron microscopy (FeSEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements, Infrared and Raman analysis […]
