Synthesis and Characterization of Nano-Structured Mixed Oxides

Article Preview

Abstract:

Nano-structured hydrotalcite based mixed oxides have been synthesized using coprecipitation method under variable pH and low supersaturation condition. XRD technique has been used to confirm the hydrotalcite structure and its derived different phase of mixed oxides. The metal dispersion of mixed oxides was analyzed using ICP-MS. The nanostructures of the mixed oxides have been investigated using FESEM and HRTEM. The textural properties of mixed oxides were analyzed using N2 adsorption-desorption (BET) technique. The Characterizations have revealed that the developed mixed oxides were consisted with hexagonal/rhombohedral well dispersed nano-particles. Polycrystalline mixed oxides formed mesopore surface and narrower pore size distribution.
