✦ Synopsis


Nanoparticles of tin oxide (SnO 2 ) have been prepared from water-in-oil microemulsions consisting of water, AOT (surfactant), and n-heptane (oil). Precursor hydroxides were precipitated in the aqueous cores of water-in-oil microemulsions and then calcined at 600Β°C for 2 h to form tin oxide powder. The formation of phase pure tin oxide was confirmed by means of X-ray diffraction analysis. The tin oxide powder was found to be less than 40 nm in particle diameter and to have a higher specific surface area, about 73 m 2 /g, when compared with tin oxide powder prepared through the conventional precipitation method (19 m 2 /g).

We investigated the in situ immobilization of ultrafine particles synthesized in a water/oil (w/o) microemulsion to silica for its possible application to supported metal catalysts. ZnS particles immobilized to silica by the ME method were consistent with those synthesized in a w/o microemulsion. Th
