In this study, we report soft and solvothermal methods for synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs). Both methods involve a precursor and are carried out at the middle low-temperature regime. The effect of different solvents on the ZnO NPs properties was studied.

Carbon composites with up to 1 mmol g of irreversibly adsorbed bromine were produced by the room temperature plasma treatment of an activated carbon fabric (ACF) derived from polyacrylonitrile textile. The brominated ACF (BrACF) was studied by elastic optical scattering indicatrix analysis at wavelength 532 nm.
