英文摘要：

Nano-ZnO has been greatly concerned in recent years owing to its special optical,electrical,mechanical and magnetical properties.The surfactants are widely used in the preparation of ZnO nanomaterials,whose structure,morphology and performance can be effectively controlled by simply altering the nature of surfactants and the preparation conditions.The properties and classification of the surfactants are introduced.Then the recent research progress of different surfactant-assisted synthesis of nano-ZnO are reviewed.The potential applications of surfactant in the preparation of nano-ZnO are demonstrated.
