Infrared Spectra Investigation of CuO-Al2O3 Precursors Produced by Electrochemical Oxidation of Copper and Aluminum Using Alternating Current

Article Preview

Abstract:

Joint electrochemical oxidation of copper and aluminum using alternating current (AC) was performed. The electrolysis products were dried on air (method carbonate) and at the residual pressure of 3-5 kPa (oxide method). Cu-Al layered double hydroxide (Cu-Al/LDH) are formed at air carbonization. Oxide method saves copper (I) oxide. Heat treatment causes the decomposition of LDH to CuO and Al2O3 as well as Cu2O oxidation to CuO. Copper-aluminum spinel (CuAl2O4) is the product of solid-phase interaction of copper and aluminum oxides. Infrared spectra revealed that oxide method provides the boehmite dehydration and metal oxides interaction at lower temperature despite the fact that the poorly crystallized copper (II) oxide is formed at LDH decomposition.
