Functional finishing of cotton fabrics using zinc oxide–soluble starch nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this paper, a zinc oxide-soluble starch nanocomposites (nano-ZnO) synthesized using water as a solvent and soluble starch as a stabilizer is impregnated onto cotton fabrics to impart antibacterial and UV-protection functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional finishing in cotton fabrics using zinc oxide nanoparticles
Achchhelal Yadav,Virendra Prasad,A A Kathe,Sheela Raj,Deepti Yadav,C. Sundaramoorthy,N. Vigneshwaran +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, zinc oxide nanoparticles were prepared by a wet chemical method using zinc nitrate and sodium hydroxide as precursors and soluble starch as stabilizing agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spectroscopic characterization of zinc oxide nanorods synthesized by solid-state reaction.
TL;DR: Well-crystallized zinc oxide nanorods have been fabricated by single step solid-state reaction using zinc acetate and sodium hydroxide, at room temperature with the advantage of eco-friendliness since the solvent and other harmful chemicals were eliminated in the synthesis protocol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional behaviour of polypropylene/ZnO–soluble starch nanocomposites
Subramani Chandramouleeswaran,Shashank T. Mhaske,A A Kathe,P.V. Varadarajan,Virendra Prasad,N. Vigneshwaran +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, nano-ZnO-polypropylene nanocomposites (nano-PP) were prepared using nanoparticles of ZnO stabilized by soluble starch as filler in PP by the melt mixing process.
