Abstract
Transition metal oxides (TMO) NPs are particles with constituents at
nanoscale level which is between 1-100 nm size range. Transition metal oxide
nanoparticles are used for various purposes ranging from drug delivery in
medical field, in industries for making solar cell and batteries for storing energy,
in cosmetics, clothes and in sensor technology. Transition metal oxide NPs have
attracted serious attention recently because of their unique features which
include anti-bacterial activity, oxidation resistance and also good thermal
conductivity. Transition metal oxide nanoparticles such as TiO2,
ZnO, MnO2 and FeO are synthesized either with chemicals or using
green methods which involves the use of plant extract. Transition metal oxide
nanoparticles have tremendous applications in industries as such there is need
to explore more about their synthesis and applications. This study aims at
presenting an overview of transition metal oxide nanoparticles, TiO2,
ZnO, MnO2, with serious reference to hydrothermal method of
synthesis and the different reagents as well as the reaction conditions and the
mechanisms involves in the synthesis.
