Research abstract
Rice hull ash, which is being produced in large quantities, currently has limited commercial utility. Many nanocomposites are synthesized through very expensive routes. The project investigates the the low-cost production of nanocomposites derived from rice hull ash. These nanocomposites may be used in a wide variety of electronic, photonic and structural applications.
