A review on the synthesis of metal oxide nanomaterials by microwave induced solution combustion

“…4 shows that the microstructure is in the form of sponge like aggregates. 32 The single metal oxide nanomaterials prepared by microwave-induced combustion synthesis have small particle sizes and high specific surface area, which can be used as antibacterial agents and adsorbents with efficient antibacterial properties and adsorption capacity.…”

One-Step Hydrothermal Synthesis of Nitrogen-Doped Reduced Graphene Oxide/Hausmannite Manganese Oxide for Symmetric and Asymmetric Pseudocapacitors

“…Electrochemical energy storage devices have emerged as the key technological solution to the rising energy demand and the limited availability or harsh environmental impact of fossil fuels. , Such energy storage devices should be able to deliver robust power and energy outputs while being able to still retain their stability and efficiency after long charge–discharge cycles. The inherent high efficiency of an electrochemical energy storage device and its capability to store the harnessed energy from renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, etc., has drawn much attention in the current energy research. , Among the electrochemical energy storage devices, supercapacitors (SCs) have proved to possess such characteristics as described above and hence continue to receive much attention from the scientific research community .…”

Temperature‐dependent synthesis of Mn 3 O 4 nanostructures by microwave irradiation method for high‐performance supercapacitors

“…9 Mn 3 O 4 nanoparticles have been synthesized by various methods, including polyetherimide-templated (spherical, 8.7-31.5 nm), 10 chemical precipitation (spherical, ~20 to 50 nm), 11 ultrasound-assisted ball milling (small size, ~30 nm), 12 hydrothermal (nanorods, 5-30 nm), 13 solvothermal (irregular, 12-40 nm), 14 sol-gel (spherical, 1 μm), 15 combustion (spherical, ~43 nm), 16 low temperature (spherical, 35 nm), 17 and microwave combustion (spongy aggregates, 28.08 nm) synthesis methods. 18 Among these, microwave-assisted synthesis methods have certain advantages, including simple procedure, rapid and selective heating, energy-saving, higher yields, high purity, small and narrow particle size distribution, lower processing cost, and eco-friendliness. 19 The principle of microwave heating energy is established on the direct effect of microwaves on particles via ionic conduction and dipole rotation.…”
