Synthesis of nano and micro crystals of Cd(OH)(2) and CdO in the shape of hexagonal sheets and rods
Cd(OH)(2) and CdO nano/micro crystals were synthesized in ethanol-water medium using cadmium foil as a source under solvothermal condition. The experimental parameters such as ratio of ethanol to water, concentration of NaOH and synthesis temperature all play important role in determining the size, shape and crystalline phase of the products. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Nano/micro crystals of CdO were also achieved by thermal treatment of Cd(OH)2 crystals in air at different temperatures. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
