Abstract

Nanoscience and Nanotechnology are the growing fields of scientific research and commercial development. Nanosize powders are solid particles with typical size in the range of 1 to 100 nm. Nanosize powders have very large specific surface area giving rise to many special physical and chemical properties. The important objective of the present research is to produce high purity Nanopowder using pulse power technique. The advantage of the pulse power generation is that particle size could be controlled by varying the injected power and the method has high energy efficiency and high product purity. In the present study charging voltage, dielectric strength of operating medium, length and size of operating wire on the production of Nanoparticle were analysed. We exploded Cu wires of 25 mm in length and 0.08 mm in diameter in distilled water with same discharge energy /mol. The capacitance of the energy storage capacitor was 50000pF, and the charging voltage was varied from 30 kV to 40 kV. The mechanism of generation of Nanoparticles using pulsed power technique is explained in detail. Also the relationship between different control parameters on the particles were explained in detail.
