Within the flourishing field of nanotechnology are nanoparticles (NPs)—particles sized about 100 nm. NPs are classified into four types: carbon, polymer, metal, and metal-oxide, and other inorganic ...

Quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) have shown great potential in display and lighting applications. In particular, the incorporation of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) as the electron ...

A simple tweak to zinc oxide nanoparticles - adding just 2 % silver - has created one of the most responsive hydrogen sensors ever reported. Its fast, accurate detection could overhaul hydrogen safety ...

Epoxy adhesives are widely used in industry due to their desirable properties, including excellent chemical and corrosion resistance, ambient curability, low shrinkage during curing, high strength, ...

A recent article published in Scientific Reports demonstrated the efficacy of ZnO and CuO nanoparticles (NPs) as heat and corrosion-resistant pigments in paint formulations. The NPs were synthesized ...

What are Metal Oxide Nanoparticles? Metal oxide nanoparticles are a class of nanomaterials composed of metal cations bonded to oxygen anions, with particle sizes ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers.
