Gel combustion synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles

Zinc oxide nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using gel combustion synthesis route. Zinc nitrate was used as oxidant and palm oil derived fatty alcohol (C8 - octyl alcohol) as well as glycerol functioned as organic dispersants and fuel. The materials were directly mixed and heated until com...
