Abstract

A cosolvent spray pyrolysis process was used for the generation of micrometer-sized pure copper particles. Ethylene glycol (EG) and ethanol (ET) were selected as cosolvents, and their effects on particle morphology and composition were systematically investigated. Experimental results showed that oxide-free copper particles could be generated at temperatures greater than 400 °C with either cosolvent. Hollow particles with cracks were generated with ET at temperatures from 400 to 1000 °C, whereas EG promoted the formation of porous particles at temperatures up to 600 °C and hollow shell particles with smooth surfaces at 875 and 1000 °C. Results from short residence time experiments indicated that, during the generation process, lamellar and fragment-like copper hydroxy nitrate [Cu2(OH)3NO3] precipitated when EG and ET were used respectively. Cu2(OH)3NO3then decomposed to cupric oxide (CuO) and cuprous oxide (Cu2O). Finally the oxides were reduced to copper (Cu) in the reducing atmosphere created by EG and ET.
