Abstract:This study reports on synthesis of ZnO nanostructures using Zinc chloride (ZnCl2) as precursors and Potassium hydroxide (KOH) as alkaline source in a solvothermal process with varying molar concentrations (Zn2+/OH-) of 1:1, 1:3 and 1:5 for temperatures of 30 °C and 50 °C. The synthesized nanostructures were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy, and Ultraviolet Visib… Show more
“…➢Self-organization occurs by subsequent conversion by interface fusion to single crystals through sharing a common crystallographic orientation Precursors Size and morphology Differential reaction mechanism ➢Change in precursors change reaction mechanism, self-assembly and oriented fixing of atoms. 83 ➢The nanoparticles are orientally fixed into a plethora of geometries depending on concentration ratio and other parameters. 84 ➢Cauliflower-like, irregularly shaped, and nonuniform were obtained by increasing the precursor concentration ratio.…”
Significant advances in nanoparticle-related research have been made in the past decade, and amelioration of properties is considered of utmost importance for improving nanoparticle bioavailability, specificity, and catalytic performance.

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.
