Solution combustion synthesis using furfuryl alcohol as fuel and a combustible solvent

An alternative solution combustion synthesis (SCS) approach is proposed using furfuryl alcohol (FA) with a dual role of fuel and solvent. Advantages of this SCS-FA include a low ignition temperature, high exothermicity, and avoiding the need of water evaporation costing energy and time. Porous nanos...

Zusammenfassung:An alternative solution combustion synthesis (SCS) approach is proposed using furfuryl alcohol (FA) with a dual role of fuel and solvent. Advantages of this SCS-FA include a low ignition temperature, high exothermicity, and avoiding the need of water evaporation costing energy and time. Porous nanostructures of CeO 2 , CuO, and CuO-CeO 2 have been synthesised with this approach. The properties of SCS-FA products are equivalent to, or better than, the corresponding products synthesised using glycine as a fuel with water as the solvent.
