Synthesis and characterization of zirconium carbide nanorods at low temperature
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract A novel chemical synthetic method at low temperature was developed for the synthesis of ZrC nanorods, using ZrCl 4 and sodium metal in the presence of naphthalene as the carbon source. The results showed that the ZrCl 4 , after heat treatment in argon atmosphere at temperatures above 500°C, can be completely converted into ZrC nanorods. However, the initial formation temperature of ZrC was as low as 400 °C whereas ZrO 2 as an intermediate product was also produced from the precursor at 300°C, and the mixture was finally transformed into pure ZrC at 700°C. The synthesized ZrC nanorods exhibited cubic lattice structure.
