Title: A facile way for preparing tin nanoparticles from bulk tin via ultrasound dispersion. Author: Li Z, Tao X, Cheng Y, Wu Z, Zhang Z, Dang H. Journal: Ultrason Sonochem; 2007 Jan; 14(1):89-92. PubMed ID: 16431149. Abstract: In this paper, we reported a facile and rapid process to prepare tin nanoparticles from bulk tin via ultrasound dispersion. The morphology and structure of synthesized tin nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results show that the morphology of tin nanoparticles is spherical and the structure of tin nanoparticles has the same crystal structure as the bulk tin. In addition, the tribological property of tin nanoparticles as additives in oil is evaluated on a four-ball tester and the results show that tin nanoparticles exhibit good performance in wear.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
