- Stability study of copper oxide nanofluids in water for different sonication timesPublication . Queirós, Ângela; Coelho, Maria de Fátima; Iglesias, Teresa Perez(Introduction) Due to the physical properties of nanoparticles and their tendency to aggregate and form clusters, the stability of nanofluids is controversial and demanding. Different techniques are used to improve stability and nanofluids. Sonication with probe has been shown to be the technique that improve nanofluid stability. Thus, following our study [1-5] in this work the stability of copper oxide (40 nm) nanoproperties in water is studied. As not to mask the effect of the nanoparticles the experimental data were carried out without addition of surfactants.
