Study on Single Step Method for Synthesis of Nano Fluids

Abstract

This project primarily focuses and uses one-step chemical reduction method for synthesizing copper nanofluids by reducing copper sulfate by sodium hypophosphite using microwave irradiation. Thermal conductivity of the product obtained is measured and the variation of thermal conductivity with pH and concentration of precursor is studied. Stability of the dispersion formed is studied by measuring zeta potential at different pH values. One-step method for synthesizing nanofluids has been used to produce nickel nanofluids and properties of the product formed were studied by transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction techniques. High energy ball milling was used to produce copper nanoparticles to be used in the two step method for synthesizing copper nanofluids. The effect of milling time on the size of the crystallites formed was studied.
