General description

Zinc nanoparticles possess a large surface area, low potential, and environmental-friendly properties. They can be used to prepare ZnO nanoparticles with enhanced luminescent properties. They can also be used in electrochemical H2 production and CO2 reduction.

Application

Primary particles may form agglomerates of ~100nm in the powder phase which can be broken up through sonication.
