Inorganic colloids TiO2 and ZnO have been successfully prepared using different “bottom up” techniques, such as Sol-gel and Solvo-thermal processes. Various characterization techniques such as XRD, DLS were employed to study the crystal phase, particle size and zeta-potential. It was discovered t...
