title: Time-dependent growth of zinc hydroxide nanostrands and their crystal structure.
abstract: Positively-charged crystalline zinc hydroxide nanostrands with a diameter of 2 nm and a length of a few micrometres rapidly grew in dilute aqueous solution of zinc nitrate and aminoethanol. The nanostrands were composed of hexagonal clusters of [Zn(61)(OH)(116)(H(2)O)(n)](6+).
