Tin(IV) Oxide (SnO2) nanostructures were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method. First of all, the effect of reaction parameters such as precursor concentration, pH (both acidic and basic) concentration and ethanol/water solvent concentration on SnO2 nanostructures has been investigated. It was...
