A Facile Approach for the Preparation of Nano-size Zinc Oxide in Water/Glycerol with Extremely Concentrated Zinc Sources

Abstract A facile process to prepare zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles from an aqueous zinc chloride (ZnCl2) solution and an aqueous hydroxide solution under a glycerol stabilizer at room temperature was developed. ZnCl2 aqueous solutions as concentrated as 65–80 wt% were used as the concentrated zinc...
