Supercritical hydrothermal synthesis of ZnO nanopowders beyond the critical point : understanding of nucleation and growth steps
2014
The supercritical hydrothermal synthesis of nanopowders (especially metal oxide) has been widely studied. To the best of our knowledge, no nanoparticle formation mechanism has been published yet. In this prospect, this study is dedicated to the understanding of metal oxide nanoparticle nucleation and growth mechanisms. For this purpose, zinc oxide is used as a model material. First, the influence of synthesis operating conditions such as pressure, temperature, pH, precursor concentrations and solution flow rates on particle morphological properties (size, particle size distribution or morphologies) has been investigated. Hence, two approaches have simultaneously been carried out. The first …
Elaboration of functionalized nanoparticles : applications as MRI contrast agent
2010
Spinel structured iron oxide nanoparticles open the way of biomedical applications of nanomaterials.Superparamagnetic properties of ten nanometer size crystallites permit to use them in diagnosis such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).The aim of this work was to synthesize colloidal suspension of magnetite or maghemite (called USPIO for Ultrasmall SuperParamagnetic Iron Oxide) stable in physiological conditions (pH = 7.4 and [NaCl] = 0.15M).By classical co-precipitation method, UPSIO were synthesized with a mean crystallite size of 8 nm, with a specific surface area of 110 m².g-1 and an aggregate size of 20 nm. To stabilize these nano-objects, two ways were investigated. Electrostatic age…
