Synthesis of Y2O3 Nanoparticles by Modified Transient Morphology Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

Yttrium oxide nanopowder has been successfully synthesized by a modified transient morphology. In the first step, a foamy structure was produced by combustion synthesis using yttrium nitrate and glycine. This was followed by the addition of sulfate ions and calcination at 1100 °C for 4 h. The sulfated powders were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD pattern shows Y2O3 single phase after calcination. The TEM images confirm the nanometric size of the particles in the range of 40-100nm.
