Preparation of Nanoparticles via Cellulose-Assisted Combustion Synthesis

详细

Cellulose-assisted combustion synthesis is a simple and effective continuous synthesis method that emerged almost a decade ago and now witnessing exponential growth in research interest and application. The simplicity of the process and easily scalable nature makes it appropriate for industrial scale synthesis of nanomaterials with high surface area and large porosity. Over the past few years, catalysis community has devoted considerable efforts in exploiting these properties borne naturally in combustion-synthesized materials such as complex surface structure and large porous volume providing suitable surface sites for catalytic reactions. In this review article, we plan to gather this development in the cellulose-assisted combustion synthesis and gain some insights related to possible future outlook and research needs.
