Description
Summary:Mesoporous Metal phosphates are well known by their high surface areas, along with their hybrid configurations tunable porosities in the energy storage and conversion related industry fields. The urgency for clean, sustainable, economical energy as the world looks to a clean and greener earth fuels the developments for such research and developments. In this report, we dive into the exploration of the synthesis of mesoporous metal phosphate fibre using soft-template surfactants approach and electroless deposition. This research reports the synthesis of macroporous hollow nickel fibres by 1.5 wt.% Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate and 0.4 w.t% P123 cosurfactant soft templating prepared in a 3-minute duration of electroless nickel deposition on Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene & Palladium mixed fibre removed by oxygen cleaning.
