Description

General description

Zinc nanoparticles possess a large surface area, low potential, and environmental-friendly properties. They can be used to prepare ZnO nanoparticles with enhanced luminescent properties. They can also be used in electrochemical H₂ production and CO₂ reduction.

Application

Primary particles may form agglomerates of ~100nm in the powder phase which can be broken up through sonication.
