Zinc oxide particles were produced by aqueous
precipitation in hydrothermal conditions (140°C for 6
hours). The influence of surfactant and base to control
morphology was investigated. With a change in surfactant,
rod-like bundles of different size were obtained, depending
on the core and corona size. By changing the base different
complexes were formed which interacted differently with
the surfactant present (L64). Platelets, rod-like and elliptical
particles were obtained.
