In this study, we conducted a preliminary investigation on the dissolution dynamics of zinc oxide nanoparticles in the presence of cyclic esters as slow acid generators. The particles' dissolution was monitored using turbidimetry and correlated with the changes in pH over time. These results could be significant for the design of chemically programmable colloidal systems.
We describe a preliminary investigation of the dissolution dynamics of zinc oxide nanoparticles in the presence of cyclic esters (delta-gluconolactone and propanesultone) as slow acid generators. The particles dissolution is monitored by means of turbidimetry and correlated with the evolution of pH over time. The results could be of interest for the design of chemically programmable colloidal systems.
