Abstract

We describe a method of obtaining aerosol nanoparticles in a repetitive spark discharge generator with 12 interelectrode gaps between tin electrodes, which operates at a pulse repetition frequency of 2.5 kHz. During synthesis of tin oxide nanoparticles in air, the mass productivity of the gas discharge generator reaches up to 9 g/h for primary particles with characteristic sizes within 5–10 nm and agglomerate size on the order of 50 nm.
