Abstract

Nanoparticles of YAG were prepared by sonochemistry and by microwave radiation. In both cases, the last stage of the preparation was annealing at a high temperature, which led to a highly aggregated product. To reduce the aggregation we have added κ-carrageenan (a sugar) to the reaction mixture. The effect of the sugar is presented and discussed herein.
