Solvent Effects in the Deaggregation of Titania Nanoparticles
We report on the effect of alcohols in the acid peptization of aggregated titania nanoparticle produced from alkoxides. Peptization was studied in the presence of each one of the following alcohols: methanol, ethanol, propanol and isopropanol. We find that the final particle size is correlated to the dielectric constant of the peptizing medium. Kinetic

Embedded layer of Ag nanoparticles prepared by a combined PECVD/PVD process producing SiOxCy-Ag nanocomposite thin films. [PDF]
Structural properties of SiOxCy–Ag nanocomposite thin films prepared by a dual process PVD–PECVD in the same reactor have been investigated. The experimental results have demonstrated the influence of a PECVD process carried out at room temperature for ...

Porosity through reduction in metal oxides [PDF]
Routes to porous materials with nanoscale dimensions have been investigated. In the first example presented, porous manganese oxide has been prepared by leaching Ni metal from a nickel-manganese oxide precursor via reduction.

Poly(lauryl methacrylate)‐poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PLMA‐PHEMA) diblock copolymer nanoparticles prepared in non‐polar media serve as nanoreactors for the in situ synthesis of silica from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). A silica mass loading of 17% as judged by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) produces a highly transparent dispersion, and ...

Effect of Tris and acetic acid on the stability of titania nanoparticles in different alcohols and their electrophoretic deposition process [PDF]
Tris (tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane) was used as the dispersant to enhance the colloidal stability of titania nanoparticles in different alcohols (methanol, ethanol, isopropanol and butanol). Acetic acid (AA) was also used to increase the ionization of
