Synthesis and Characterization of Nano Copper Oxide

Abstract

In this work copper oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using hydrothermal method adopting simple procedure. The synthesized particles were characterized using X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, surface adsorption analysis via , BET isotherm, and pore size distribution for the nanomaterial, which revealed that the pore size was of the order of 47.2 x 10-9 m, while the specific surface area is 24.672 m2/g . A computational procedure was used to determine the nanoparticles crystal structure parameter .
