%0 Journal Article %T Fabrication of Nanoparticles of Barium Carbonate/Oxalate Using Reverse Micelle Technique %A Poonam Sharma and H.S. Virk %J The Open Surface Science Journal %D 2009 %I Bentham Open %R 10.2174/1876531900901010034] %X Nanoparticles of barium carbonate/oxalate have been synthesized in situ from barium nitrate and ammonium carbonate/oxalate by reverse micelle method. These particles were characterized using transmission electron microscope (TEM), fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The results indicate that rod-like barium carbonate (BaCO3) and spherical barium oxalate (BaC2O4) nanoparticles can be fabricated with high crystallinity. %U http://www.benthamscience.com/open/tosursj/articles/V001/34TOSURSJ.htm
