Liquid-Phase Synthesis of Nano-Zinc Oxide and Its Photocatalytic Property.
To solve the problem of liquid-phase synthesis of nano-ZnO, a photocatalytic performance study was proposed. In this study, the microwave homogeneous precipitation method was used to add different types and amounts of surfactants. The synthesis of nano-zinc oxide was controlled by changing the reaction system conditions.

Nano Zinc Oxide Toxicity Varies With Age and Sex in Panagrellus redivivus. [PDF]
ABSTRACTZnO NPs can adsorb onto soil particles and potentially enter groundwater. Nematodes and other soil microfauna are vital to the soil's health and nutrient cycles, yet they are seriously endangered by ZnO NPs. A dose–response study using Panagrellus redivivus was applied.

In vitro evaluation of nano zinc oxide (nZnO) on mitigation of gaseous emissions. [PDF]
Enteric methane (CH4) accounts for about 70% of total CH4 emissions from the ruminant animals. Researchers are exploring ways to mitigate enteric CH4 emissions from ruminants. Recently, nano zinc oxide (nZnO) has shown potential in reducing CH4 and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production from the liquid manure under anaerobic storage conditions.

The Effect Of Nano-Zinc Oxide On Particleboard Decay Resistance [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the decay resistance of particleboards treated with nano-zinc oxide against the white-rot fungus Trametes versicolor and the brown-rot species Coniophora puteana. The nanomaterial was used for manufacturing particleboards at 5, 10 and 15% wt based on the glue dry weight.

Weatherability and Leach Resistance of Wood Impregnated with Nano-Zinc Oxide [PDF]
Southern pine specimens vacuum-treated with nano-zinc oxide (nano-ZnO) dispersions were evaluated for leach resistance and UV protection. Virtually, no leaching occurred in any of the nano-ZnO-treated specimens in a laboratory leach test, even at the highest retention of 13 kg/m(3). However, specimens treated with high concentrations of nano-ZnO showed
