Abstract: 

In this work, Zn(NO3)2·6H2O micro-nano rods are successfully fabricated by a biomimetic mineralization process. During synthetic process, the self-assembly monolayers with different terminal groups are used as templates to induce the nucleation and growth of Zn(NO3)2·6H2O crystals. The products obtained at different conditions are characterized by means of X-ray diffraction patterns, scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the orientation and morphology of the Zn(NO3)2·6H2O crystals are controlled properly by tuning the terminal groups of the self-assembled monolayers.

Keywords: 
zinc nitrate hexahydrate, micro-nano structure, biocrystallization, self-assembly monolayers.
