Abstract:A vertical spray pyrolysis reactor was designed to produce separated/softly agglomerated oxide nanoparticles by dissolving a large amount of high molecular weight polymer into solutions of nitrous or acetic metals. The polymer played a role as a matrix that prevented the tendency of as-grown nuclei to make contacts inside the "polymer ball." Decomposition of the "polymer ball" at the end stage of the reactor released separated nanoparticles. On the first attempt, we produced particles of zinc oxide and compoun… Show more
