Effect of Different C Aids on the Formation of ZnO by Microwave Solid Reaction

Article Preview

Abstract:

ZnO nanometer materials were synthesized by microwave reaction from ZnO micrometer powders with different C aids. Effect of C style on the morphology of ZnO products was studied. The result show that ZnO nanometer materials can not be formed by using directly high temperature evaporation from ZnO micrometer powders without C aids. Fine ZnO nanometer crystals can be obtained by using carbon black as aids. In this sample, most ZnO grains were nanometer particles with a size of about 100nm. And a small amount of ZnO grains were short rods with a length of 1~2μm and a average diameter of 100nm. Amounts of short columnar and long zigzag ZnO crystals can be obtained by using graphite as aids. One effect mechanism of ZnO crystalline was proposed. ZnO reacted C to form CO and CO2 gas. Concentration of CO/CO2 directly effects the morphology of ZnO in the products.
