Synthesis and characterization of Al2O3 and CuO nanoparticles into nanofluids for solar panel applications

Nanofluids are the new class of fluids with the suspension of nanomaterials which have the average particle size below 100 nm. The nanometer-sized materials are nanoparticles, nanofibers, nanotubes, nanowires, nanorods, nanosheet or droplets. In this research work, oxide ceramics of CuO and Al2O3 are synthesized successfully by two-step combustion route while using glycine as an organic fuel followed by heat treatment. The obtained nanoparticles...
