New poster at GRC Ceramics Conference 2018

Synthesis and characterization of graphene quantum dot containing ceria-zirconiaÖzgür Keleş, Andrew C. Dina, Daniel Fok Abstract: Zirconia-based nanoparticles are used in various applications, such as catalyst, filter, oxygen storage, and sensor. Among many synthesis methods to produce zirconia-based nanoparticles, aqueous sodium borohydride (NaBH4) coprecipitation produces zirconia containing nano-pores. In this work, we extended the NaBH4 coprecipitation […]
