An Experimental Study on the Relationship between the Physical Properties of CTAB/Hexanol/Water Reverse Micelles and ZrO2–Y2O3Nanoparticles Prepared

Formation of silver bromide precipitate of nanoparticles in a single microemulsion utilizing the surfactant counterion

“…Fewer nuclei formed, and nucleation and growth took place simultaneously. This result is consistent with the result obtained for the formation of AgCl in a single microemulsion [17] and with the results reported in the literature for the increase of surfactant concentration using the mixing of two microemulsions technique [27]. Fig.…”

“…The low rate of intermicellar nucleation probably resulted from a rigid surfactant layer at the values of the experimental variables used in this study. Studies on the effect of the surfactant, cosurfactant, and reactant concentrations and the type of organic continuous phase on the particle size and particle size distribution are available elsewhere [6,14,[25][26][27]. Fig.…”

A novel method for the preparation of silver chloride nanoparticles starting from their solid powder using microemulsions

“…The effect of (C 8 H 17 ) 2 (CH 3 ) 2 N + Cl − concentration is discussed below. The drop in the nanoparticle size as the temperature increased suggests the formation of smaller reverse micelles [24]. The drop in the reverse micelles size is associated with an increase in the surfactant surface layer rigidity.…”

Synthesis of Monodisperse CdS Nanospheres in an Inverse Microemulsion System Formed with a Dendritic Polyether Copolymer

“…[43] The nanowater core acts as a nanoreactor, and the size of the prepared nanoparticles can be controlled. [44] In previous studies, microemulsions were generally composed of low-molecular-weight surfactants. However, amphiphilic macromolecules, in particular amphiphilic dendrimers, can also be used to prepare microemulsions.…”
