Photo-thermal characteristics of water-based Fe3O4@SiO2 nanofluid for solar-thermal applications

This work proposes and demonstrates the novel idea of using Fe _3 O _4 @SiO _2 core/shell structure nanoparticles (NPs) to improve the solar thermal conversion efficiency. Magnetite (Fe _3 O _4 ) NPs are synthesized by controlled co-precipitation method. Fe _3 O _4 @SiO _2 NPs are prepared based on...
