Synthesis and Characterization of Nanocomposites Using the Nanoscale Laser Soldering in Liquid Technique

Phuoc T.X., Mcintyre D., Song X., Chyu M.K., National Energy Technology Lab, US

It has been known that catalytic and sensing properties of semiconductor and metal nanoparticles (NPs) can be greatly enhanced if they are made in the form of nanocomposites. For that reason, in this work, we [...]

Synthesis and characterization of cation-exchanged laponite nanohybrids for use as drilling fluid viscosifier

Phuoc T.X., Soong Y., Chyu M.K., National Energy Technology Lab, US

In this paper we report our new approach to synthesize cation-exchanged Laponite nanohybrids for use as gel-forming, viscosity and weighting material stabilizing additives for drilling fluid application. To synthesize the nanohybrids, we use laser ablation [...]
