Solution processed Hafnia nanoaggregates: influence of surface oxygen on catalytic soot oxidation
Download2022-09-26
Hafnium dioxide (HfO2) nanoaggregates are synthesized by sol–gel and hydrothermal routes followed by hydrogen annealing at different time durations. The proposed study aims to explore the effect of hydrogen annealing time on the properties of HfO2 and also envisage the catalytic soot oxidation...
