SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SILICA NANOPARTICLE AS COOLING MATERIALS FOR SOLAR PANELS

Silica nanoparticles are an essential nanofluid ingredient for absorbing heat in photovoltaic systems. Silica powder is extracted from geothermal sludge using the sol-gel method with acid-base treatment. The gel formed is stored at 12 and 18 h aging to control the particle size and microstructure.
