Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles and Their Applications

Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles and Their Applications
What is Cerium Oxide?
Cerium(IV) oxide is an oxide of the rare-earth metal cerium. It is a pale yellow-white powder with the chemical formula CeO2. It is an important commercial product and an intermediate in the purification of the element from the ores. The distinctive property of this material is its reversible conversion to a nonstoichiometric oxide.
erium Oxide Nanoparticles and Their Properties and Usage 
Cerium, which is the first element in the lanthanide group with 4f electrons, has attracted much attention from researchers in physics, chemistry, biology and materials science. When combined with oxygen in a nanoparticle formulation, Cerium Oxide adopts a fluorite crystalline structure that emerges as a fascinating material. This cerium oxide nanoparticle has been used prolifically in various engineering and biological applications, such as solid-oxide fuel cells, high-temperature oxidation protection materials, catalytic materials, solar cells and potential pharmacological agents. Although Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles can be useful in various properties and applications, the main application of Cerium Oxide is in the field of catalysis In recent years, Cerium Oxide Nanoparticle and Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles-containing materials have come under intense scrutiny as catalysts and as structural and electronic promoters of heterogeneous catalytic reactions. In industry, Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles have been most widely used as an active component in processes such as three-way catalysts for automobile exhaust-gas treatments, oxidative coupling of methane and water-gas shift reaction. Recently, Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles have been reported to have multienzyme, including superoxide oxidase, catalase and oxidase, mimetic properties, and has emerged as a fascinating and lucrative material in biological fields such as in bioanalysis, biomedicine and drug delivery. Cerium Oxide nanoparticles is an excellent oxidation resistant material. Because of this property of Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles, they are used in oxidation resistant coatings, oxygen sensors, and oxygen pumps. Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles are good Infrared absorbent. They are used in heat resistant alloy coatings and coatings for infrared filters.

Carbon Nanotube Threads

Since its discovery, carbon nanotube (CNT) has attracted many interests in different technology fields due to its extraordinary properties. Properties such as, high strength, great electrical and thermal conductivity, light weight and flexibility made CNT one of the best materials for wide range of applications. However, from its name it can be understood that CNT is a nanoscale material which is very small to be applied for the production of daily products. Researchers all around the world are working on finding methods and techniques which could produce new materials with the extraordinary properties of CNT. Image retrieved from:  https://worldindustrialreporter.com/strong-light-flexible-carbon-nanotubes-threads-with-ultrahigh-conductivity/ One of these research is focusing on the production of high strength threads that can be used in the manufacturing of fabrics, cables and ropes. An international group of scientists were able to produce a flexible conductive thread th...

Multi Walled Carbon Nanotube Dispersions

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)  have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to its unique physical, electronic, optical and potential applications in materials science and nanotechnology. The van der Waals interaction between tubes, however, makes CNTs aggregate in most organic solvents and aqueous solutions, which is the major limitation of their practical applications.Various approaches have been studied to alter the CNT surface to promote the dispersion of individual nanotubes and prevent their reaggregation. On the basis of this widely accepted viewpoint, numerous techniques such as covalent bonding, surfactant coating and polymer wrapping have been developed for surface modification or sidewall functionalization.These methods, however, are complicated, time-consuming and cause permanent damage to the CNT structure and properties of the surface, which produces residues of the dispersion agent for the final product. Figure: Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) It ha...
