Synthesis of strontium oxide nanoparticles was carried out by sol –gel method using strontium nitrate and sodium hydroxide at room temperature which is very simple and cost effective. The characterization of strontium oxide nanoparticles was done using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR). X-ray diffraction pattern indicates that the nanoparticles are crystalline in nature. The crystalline size of strontium oxide nanoparticle was calculated by Debye-Scherrer formula. The crystalline sizes are about 80nm. The morphology of nanoparticles was observed and investigated using SEM. The material at room temperature, calcined at 2000C, 400 0C and 6000C respectively shows pseudo spherical shape, cubic form and finally it becomes cylindrical this shows that there is a agglomeration with increase in temperature. FTIR spectrum of strontium oxide shows the peak at 854.64 cm-1 which is due to Sr -O bond.
Nanofluids, which are suspensions of nanoparticles in base fluids, have gained significant attention in recent years due to their enhanced thermal and electrical properties. In particular, propylene glycol-water nanofluids have been extensively investigated for their electrical properties. The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the electrical characteristics of nanofluids containing graphene powder distributed in propylene glycol-water. Compositions containing 100:0, 75:25, as well as 50:50 of Propylene Glycol as well as Water were created, along with other nano fluids. Both types of base fluids were infused with graphene at quantities of 0.25 as well as 0.5 percent, respectively. The assessment of electrical characteristics in nanofluids includes the analysis of parameters like breakdown voltage, permittivity, resistivity, and electrical conductivity. With the increase in the diameter there is an increase in the value of resistivity with the dispersion of graphene nano powder whereas breakdown voltage, permittivity and electrical conductivity have been decreased with the increase in the diameter. Overall with the dispersion of graphene in nano powder the electrical properties have been enhanced. Furthermore, it discusses the underlying mechanisms and provides insights into potential applications of propylene glycol-water nanofluids in electrical and electronic systems.
