“…Due to their remarkable performance in electronics, optics, and photonics, ZnO nanowires are attractive candidates for many applications such as UV lasers [11], light-emitting diodes [12], solar cells [13], nanogenerators [14], gas sensors [15], photodetectors [16], and photocatalysts [17]. Among these applications, ZnO nanowires are being increasingly used as photocatalysts to inactivate bacteria and viruses and for the degradation of environmental pollutants such as dyes, pesticides, and volatile organic compounds under appropriate light irradiation [18,19]. This paper reviews recent research in ZnO nanowires (or nanorods) with an emphasis on ZnO nanowires used in photocatalysis.…”

ZnO nanowires (or nanorods) have been widely studied due to their unique material properties and remarkable performance in electronics, optics, and photonics. Recently, photocatalytic applications of ZnO nanowires are of increased interest in environmental protection applications. This paper presents a review of the current research of ZnO nanowires (or nanorods) with special focus on photocatalysis. We have reviewed the semiconducting photocatalysts and discussed a variety of synthesis methods of ZnO nanowires and their corresponding effectiveness in photocatalysis. We have also presented the characterization of ZnO nanowires from the literature and from our own measurements. Finally, a wide range of uses of ZnO nanowires in various applications is highlighted in this paper.

“…Generally, sizes of inclusions detected by metallographic microscope and SEM are <10 µm, most are <5 µm. SEM and EDS analysis of inclusions in metallographic sample presents that CaO–SiO 2 –Al 2 O 3 inclusions are from reaction products of refining slags with molten steel, MnO–SiO 2 –Al 2 O 3 inclusions are from deoxidation products …”

The wire rod electrolysis is an extraction approach of inclusions in wire rod based on non-aqueous solution electrolysis, which can extract large-size inclusions (>20 mm) from F5.5 mm wire rod even about F0.22 mm cord wire. Analysis and study on large-size inclusions in tire cord steel from domestic and overseas steel plants were carried out by wire rod electrolysis, the study shows that the sizes of inclusions in wire rod of tire cord steel are far larger than those observed by metallographic microscope or scanning electron microscopy. Eighty percent large-size inclusions in wire rod come from the involvement of reaction products of mold fluxes or refractories. Further study according to electrolysis of wire rod and cord wire presents that reaction products containing K and Na of mold fluxes and refractories are brittle and easy to break into more small inclusions. Wire broken during drawing process is mainly caused by large-size and highhardness Al 2 O 3 inclusions, inclusions containing high content MgO from reaction products of mold fluxes and refractories, and Ti(CN) inclusions.

“…So considered sustainable and eco-friendly, biological technologies are attracting more interest currently [2] . Nanometer ZnO hardly causes light scattering, and has large specific surface area and a wide band, so it is considered to be one of the promising photocatalysts for degradation of hazardous organic compounds [3] . It has been reported sometimes to be more efficient than TiO 2 for photoxidation of phenol and nitrophenols [4,5] .…”

Abstract. The photocatalytic composites of nano ZnO/α-Fe 2 O 3 /ATP were prepared by coprecipitation and hydrothermal reaction and then were applied to degrade simulated wastewater of methyl orange, which showed that the degradation rate of methyl orange reached 85.3% under UV light. The degradation reaction of methyl orange was consistent with first-order kinetic equation with k=0.456/h proving that the composite materials had efficient photocatalytic activity and excellent decolorization rate.
