Cerium oxide (CeO 2 ) nanoparticles of size 3–5 nm and surface area 257 m g −1 were synthesized using simple, single‐pot, surfactant‐free aerogel process. Efforts made to tune the porosity CeO by changing concentration precursors. characterized TEM, SEM, XRD, N ‐BET, FTIR. Prepared was used remove As(III) As(V) from water at variable contaminant concentrations (25–100 ppm) pH (3–10). The adsorption process found extremely fast for first few minutes exposure. indicated capacities 71.9 36.8 mg...

In this work, we present a novel method for the synthesis of copper nanoparticles. We utilize charge compensatory effect ionic liquid [bmim]BF(4) in conjunction with ethylene glycol providing electro-steric stabilization to nanoparticles prepared from sulphate using hydrazine hydrate as reducing agent. The formed showed extended stability over period one year. Copper thus were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction measurements (pXRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and quasi...

Silica nanoparticles with a surface area of 673.60 m2/g and particle size 8-12 nm were prepared using aerogel process (AP) followed by super critical drying. Zero valent Fe, Co, Pt, bimetallic Fe/Pt Fe/Co loaded an incipient wetness impregnation technique subsequent reduction. Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX) transmission (TEM-EDX) characterizations indicated fine dispersion iron on AP-SiO2 +Fe system. Prepared evaluated for the adsorptive removal...

Cobalt impregnated silica nanoparticles (Co–SiO 2 ) were synthesized via one pot method involving supercritical drying followed by in‐situ reduction. The prepared characterized nitrogen‐Brunauer Emmett Teller (N ‐BET) isotherm studies, X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission (TEM), zeta particle size analyzer and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) techniques. Co–SiO evaluated for adsorptive removal of methylene blue (MB), trinitrotoluene (TNT), mercury ions...

Abstract Hematite nanoparticles (α‐Fe 2 O 3 ) were successfully synthesised using facile and eco‐friendly hydrothermal method. Synthesised hematite characterized X‐ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, surface area analysis transmission electron microscopy. Nano/micro particles of (1, 3&5 %, w/w) incorporated in aerosol forming composite (AFC). For the first time, catalytic effect nano micro size on performance AFC has been creatively investigated with respect to...
