Abstract:Due to its multiple applications, zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the most used materials in science and technology. Therefore, this research carried out the synthesis of ZnO and Pt-ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) by the direct precipitation method, which is characterized by being simple and reproducible, using two different precipitating agents, potassium hydroxide (KOH) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH); for the doping of Pt-ZnO NPs was used platinum acetylacetone. To evaluate the effect of the precipitating agent on the prope… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
