Abstract

Research into soft chemical techniques has gained an importance for the synthesis of high quality advanced nanosized materials with desired properties at the low crystallization temperature. The closer interaction between the material chemists and alkoxide chemists has led to the molecular design of more suitable precursors, for fabrication of functional material has resulted in synergetic developments in both the fields. Metal alkoxide is a versatile precursor and is used for the synthesis of functional gradient nanomaterials and characterization of materials was carried out in term of composition, microstructure and specific surface ...
