Preparation of ZnO bulk porous nanosolids of different pore diameters by a novel solvothermal hot press (STHP) method

摘要

ZnO bulk porous nanosolids were prepared by a novel solvothermal hot press (STHP) method with different pore-forming agents using ZnO nanoparticles. The samples were characterized with SEM, XRD, FTIR, a mercury intrusion porosimeter and N_2 adsorption-desorption method. Experimental results showed that pore size of the nanosolids was between 20-32 and 20-100 nm when de-ionized water and CTAB solution were used as pore-forming agents, respectively. There was no obvious morphological change in the samples when all pore-forming agents were removed from the autoclave.
