Various capping agents were used to passivate the nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction studies show formation of single phased, cubic Cu2O nanoparticles. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies indicate formation of CuO phase on the surface of Cu2O nanoparticles for uncapped as well as for those, capped by tetraoctylammonium bromide. On the other hand polyacrylamide and polyvinyl pyrrolidone capped samples did not show presence of CuO. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy also indicates formation of a Cu2+ complex with the capping material on the surface of Cu2O nanoparticles. The results were discussed in terms of capability of passivation of various additives. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

The BET surface area analysis shows decreases of the surface area from 387 to 383 m(2)/g, pore volume from 0.88 to 0.81 cm(3)/g and pore diameter from 9.07 to 8.4 mm after methanol adsorption. The appearance of strong IR bands at 2862 and 2964cm(-1) due to methyl (-CH3) symmetric and asymmetric stretching demonstrate the presence of methanol and evidence of successful methanol adsorption. XPS results show increase of carbon and oxygen content on the surface of SBA-15. Thermogravirriettic analysis shows that the methanol adsorbed on SBA-15 is stable up to a temperature of 265 degrees C and that the methanol adlayers decompose between 265 and 588 degrees C.

These needle-like nanostructures of gold were irradiated with high energy electrons (E-6 MeV, phi similar to 10(12) e cm(-2) s(-1)). The pre- and post-irradiated gold nanostructures were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and contact angle measurement (GBX-Model Digidrop) techniques. The results of the SEM revealed that after electron irradiation, the needle-like gold structures got fragmented into identical cube-shaped gold nanostructures, though of different sizes. The XRD analysis indicated that the average crystallite size of the gold nanostructures remained unchanged even after irradiation with high energy electrons. A glass surface showed hydrophilic behavior when coated with needle-like nanostructures and became ultra hydrophilic when coated with cube-shaped gold nanostructures. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.
