Metal Dispersion

Copper nanoparticles dispersion is a p-type semiconductor with direct bandgap and high absorption properties that make it a promising material for low-cost photovoltaic cells. Copper oxide dispersions are used in a wide range of applications such as gas sensors, magnetic storage media, solar energy transformation, semiconductors, and organic catalysis.

Copper nanoparticles dispersion is a good choice for making dispersions. To prepare copper nanoparticles for various applications, many synthetic methods have been developed, such as sonochemical hydrothermal, and solid-state techniques and the produced copper Oxide (CuO) particle which is further used for preparing nanofluids or dispersions.

The unique properties of copper nanoparticle dispersions and their potential applications have continued to attract a lot of attention. Copper Oxide (CuO) nanoparticles are used to improve the viscosity of energy transferring fluids, thereby boosting thermal conductivity. In industrial fields, Copper Oxide (CuO) dispersions are widely used as p-type semiconductors and transistors in the design and production of batteries, solar cells, gas sensors, and field emitters. Nowadays, Copper Oxide nanoparticle dispersion is utilized as heterogeneous catalysts, antioxidants, drug delivery agents, and imaging agents in the field of biomedicine.

Copper nanoparticle dispersion has many useful physical and chemical properties such as superconductivity at high temperature, photovoltaic properties, relatively stable, low cost and has antimicrobial activity. Copper Oxide (CuO) nanoparticles dispersion also has various technology applications such as catalysis, batteries due to high electrochemical capacity, and gas sensors. Copper Oxide (CuO) nanoparticle dispersion can be synthesized for by different methods such as sonochemical technique, electrochemical method, high-temperature combustion, and novel quick precipitation method.

Copper oxide nanoparticles dispersions have unique optical and semiconductor properties allowing the application of copper oxide nanoparticles in many industrial applications. Controlling the size and morphology of the nanoparticles enables the tunability of these properties. The major methods of synthesizing copper oxide nanoparticles dispersions involve one phase in either a batch or a continuous flow reactor.
