Synthesis and characterization of nanofluids for cooling applications
(University of the Western Cape, 2006)
Low thermal conductivity is a primary limitation in the development of energy-efficient heat transfer fluids that are required in numerous industrial sectors. Recently submicron and high aspect ratio particles (nanoparticles ...
Synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles by a green process and the investigation of their physical properties
(University of the Western Cape, 2017)
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a wide and direct semiconductor with a wurtzite crystal structure. Its
multifunctionality as the ideal candidate in applications such as blue-UV light emitting
diodes, transparent conducting oxide, ...
