Nanoparticulated hydrophobic CdO coatings deposited by microwave procedure PROJECT TITLE :Nanoparticulated hydrophobic CdO coatings deposited by microwave procedureABSTRACT:A unique and inexpensive manner to deposit nanostructured cadmium oxide (CdO) coatings is described. Metallic Cd is evaporated by heating a silicon carbide crucible, via microwave radiation at standard atmosphere conditions. The Cd vapour rises from the crucible and reacts with the atmospheric oxygen depositing on a glass substrate. CdO coating is homogeneously distributed on top of the glass surface and it presents a well-defined cubic-shaped nanostructure. The as-deposited CdO coatings showed sensible hydrophobic properties and achieved symmetric contact angles of 112°. The hydrophobic behaviour was lost once a seventy five min of warmth treatment at 723 K. Did you like this research project? To get this research project Guidelines, Training and Code...
