Abstract | A review. This article is to describe the potential use of ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, which is somewhat unique in that surface adsorption can be investigated at both the nanoparticle oxide/gas and nanoparticle oxide/liq. interfaces. The mol. nature of oxide nanoparticle surfaces will most likely be different in these two phases. The quantification of surface adsorption as a function of size could be done with this technique under these different conditions. The results should be revealing and may provide addnl. insight into the chem. properties of oxide nanoparticles. [on SciFinder(R)] |
