IN375159: An improved process for the preparation of samarium oxide (samaria) nanofibers
The invention discloses a process for the preparation of nano sized to sub micron sized samarium oxide (Samaria) fibers/nanofibers. The invention consists of preparation of a homogeneous citrate or acetate salt solution of samarium in poly vinyl alcohol and distilled water. The homogeneous solution was electrospun to generate composite fibers/nanofibers of PVA+ samarium citrate or samarium acetate. The composite fibers were heat treated at to expel the organic phase leaving pure Samaria fibers/nanofibers.
