An adjustable and scalable method for the continuous flow synthesis of cupric oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs), targetted reduction their activity to synthetic biomembranes inform fabrication (NPs) with reduced toxicity commercial applications. By manipulating key factors; temperature, residence time, ratio precursor reductant, precise control over morphology CuO NPs is achieved X-ray diffraction (XRD) transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirming formation needle-shaped NPs....
Abstract The ability to control crystallization reactions is required in a vast range of processes including the production functional inorganic materials and pharmaceuticals prevention scale. However, it currently limited by lack understanding mechanisms underlying crystal nucleation growth. To address this challenge, necessary carry out well‐defined environments, ideally perform situ measurements. Here, versatile microfluidic synchrotron‐based technique presented meet these demands....
Abstract We present a comparison of common electron microscopy sample preparation methods for studying crystallisation processes from solution using both scanning and transmission (SEM TEM). focus on two widely studied inorganic systems: calcium sulphate, gypsum (CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O) carbonate (CaCO 3 ). find significant differences in kinetics polymorph selection between the different methods, which indicate that drying chemical quenching can induce severe artefacts are capable masking true...
