Laser pyrolyzed SnO nanoparticles with an option of nitrogen (N) doping are prepared using a cost-effective method. The electrochemical performance of N-doped samples is tested for the first time in Li-ion batteries where the sample with 3% of N-dopant exhibits optimum performance with a capacity of 522 mAh g that can be obtained at 10 A g (6.7C).

Herein, porous SnO microspheres in a three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical architecture were successfully synthesized via a facile hydrothermal route utilizing d-(+)-glucose and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), which act as reducing and structure-directing agents, respectively. Controlled adjustment of the CTAB to glucose mole ratio, reaction temperature, reaction time, and the calcination parameters all provided important clues toward optimizing the final morphologies of SnO with exceptional structural stability and reasonable monodispersity. Electron microscopy analysis revealed that microspheres formed were hierarchical self-assemblies of numerous primary SnO nanoparticles of ∼3-8 nm that coalesce together to form nearly monodispersed and ordered spherical structures of sizes in the range of 230-250 nm and are appreciably porous.

Electronic waste (e-waste) has become a significant environmental concern worldwide due to the rapid advancement of technology and short product lifecycles. Waste-printed electronic boards (WPCBs) contain valuable metals and semiconductors; among them, tin can be recycled and repurposed for sustainable material production. This study presents a potential ecofriendly methodology for the recovery of tin from WPCBs in the form of tin oxide nanostructured powders.

Nitrogen dioxide (NO) is an important contaminant that poses a severe threat to environmental sustainability. Traditional inorganic NO gas detectors are generally used under harsh operating conditions and employ environmentally unfriendly resources, thus preventing widespread practical applications. Herein, self-assembled peptide microtubes (SPMTs) are combined with SnO nanoparticles (NPs) to develop a bioinspired NO gas sensor.

Dimetridazole (DMT), a nitroimidazole used in veterinary medicine for treating protozoan infections, poses significant carcinogenic and mutagenic risks, necessitating precise monitoring to ensure food safety. We report the development of an advanced electrochemical sensor based on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with a nanostructured cassiterite (SnO)/carbon black (CB) composite, synthesized via hydrothermal and sonochemical techniques. The sensor benefits from SnO's high electrical conductivity, chemical stability, and large bandgap, while CB enhances its performance with superior conductivity.

The improper handling and uncontrolled discharge of toxic organic dyes result in significant adverse effects on both human health and the environment. This study investigates the fabrication of SnO₂, yttrium and cobalt dual-doped SnO₂ (YCSn), chitosan-capped SnO₂ (CS*Sn), and chitosan-capped yttrium and cobalt dual-doped SnO₂ (CS*YCSn) nanoparticles using a one-step coprecipitation method for the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) under visible light irradiation. Characterization techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry confirm the successful synthesis of biodegradable CS*YCSn nanoparticles.
