Research Contributions
Noluthando Kana has made significant contributions to the field of nanotechnology through her research on material properties at the nanoscale. She has investigated the solidification of mercury at room temperature, the enhancement of thermal conductivity in MoO3–H2O nano-fluids, and the stability and thermal conductivity of CuO nanowires for catalytic applications. Her earlier work also explored surface size-effects in NaCl nano-crystals. These studies are crucial for advancing applications such as waste storage, thermal management, and catalysis.
