Abstract:CuO-CoO-MnO/SiO 2 nanocomposite aerogels were prepared by using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as Si source, and aqueous solution of Cu, Co and Mn acetates as transition metal sources via solgel process and supercritical drying (SCD) technique. The effect of synthesis conditions on gelation was investigated. Moreover, the composition of the CuO-CoO-MnO/SiO 2 nanocomposite aerogels was characterized by electron dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the specific surface a… 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.
