Tin oxide nanoparticles were prepared by hydrothermal method using octadecylamine surfactant as a templating agent. The synthesis was carried out at different concentration of surfactant keeping all other reaction conditions constant i.e time, intensity and temperature. The particle size decreases with the increase in concentration of surfactant up to critical micelle concentration (CMC). After CMC, increase in particle size occured with the increase in concentration of surfactant and this was attributed to the formation of micelles. The nanoparticles were applied as nanocatalyst under UV and...
