Dear All,
Greetings of the day.
I have hydrothermally synthesized bimetallic nanoparticles which have flower-like structures (file attached). the size of the synthesized flowers is below 100 nm and the size distribution seems uniform. I tried coating the Nickle foam with this nanostructured powder, and for the same, a small piece of cleaned and vacuum dried Nickle foam was placed inside the reactor. upon visual observation, the colour of the foam seems a bit changed. there seems some coating over the surface but not as dark in colour as I have seen in some literature available.
Now I have 2 favours to ask.
1. Details or literature for the synthesis of flower-like assemblies strictly in nano range (I found upon literature survey that the flower-like structure goes in micron range).
2. Suggestions to increase the coating.
Any kind of suggestive help is highly appreciated.
Thanking you in advance.
Sincerely,
Niharika
Dear Niharika, thanks for sharing these very interesting questions with the RG community. In my experience it is often very useful to directly search the "Publications" section of RG for helpful literature references. For example, just search for the term "flower-like nanoparticles" and then click on "Publications". This will provide you with a list of relevant articles which have been posted on RG, some of them even as public full texts:
https://www.researchgate.net/search.Search.html?type=publication&query=flower-like%20nanoparticles
In a similar manner you can also search for terms like "nanoparticle coating of nickel foam".
I hope this helps. Good luck with your research!
Terms such as "Dendritic Fibrous" or "Fibrous" can be used as well for searching the literature.
