Abstract

Nickel and silver particles were prepared by using sol–gel auto-combustion method under N2 atmosphere where lactic acid was applied as chelating agent. The synthesis of nickel particles was carried out at various pH conditions (2–7), resulting in the face-centered-cubic or hexagonal-close-packed crystalline nickel phase. The morphology and structure of synthesized nickel particles and silver nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope, energy dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry-thermogravimetric analysis. The results show that the spherical Ag nanoparticles with diameters in the range of 18–27 nm and narrow size distribution can be obtained by this sol–gel process.
