Formation of nanosize ZnO particles by thermal decomposition of zinc acetylacetonate monohydrate
Formation of ZnO particles by thermal decomposition of zinc acetylacetonate monohydrate in air atmosphere has been investigated using XRD, DTA, FT-IR, and FE SEM as experimental techniques. ZnO as a single phase was produced by direct heating at ≥ 200°C. DTA in air showed an endothermic peak at 195°C assigned to the ZnO formation and exothermic peaks at 260, 315 and 365°C, with a shoulder at 395°C. Exothermic peaks can be assigned to combustion of an acetylacetonate ligand released at 195°C. ZnO particles prepared at 200°C have shown no presence of organic species, as found by FT-IR spectroscopy. Particles prepared for 0.5 h at 200°C were in the nanosize range from ~20 to ~40 nm with a maximum at 30 nm approximately. The crystallite size of 30 nm was estimated in the direction of the a1 and a2 crystal axes, and in one direction of the c-axis it was 38 nm, as found with XRD. With prolonged heating of ZnO particles at 200°C the particle/crystallite size changed little. However, with heating temperature increased up to 500 or 600°C the ZnO particle size increased, as showed by FE SEM observation. Nanosize ZnO particles were also prepared in two steps: (a) by heating of zinc acetylacetonate monohydrate up to 150°C and distillation of water and organic phase, and (b) with further heating of so obtained precursor at 300°C.
