Synthesis and characterization of in 2S 3 nanorods in sucrose ester water-in-oil microemulsion

We report the synthesis of In 2 S 3 nanorods in a nonionic sugar-based water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsion system using food grade sucrose ester as biosurfactant. In 2 S 3 was formed by mixing indium (III) chloride and thioacetamide in the water core of the microemulsion system. The as-prepared yellowi...
