Tracking on crystallization process of doped metal oxide IATO to optimize solvothermal conditions
Source abstract
Abstract
XRD (X-ray diffraction) pattern analysis can estimate approximate preparation condition values based on nanomaterials formation; however, these initial values can be further refined without additional experiments by combining DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) curves with thermodynamic equations to track crystallinity and crystallization rate of nanomaterials, which effectively improves the speed of preparation scheme. In this study, XRD pattern analysis from the comparative experimental results revealed that the optimum preparing solvothermal conditions on the IATO (tin-doped indium oxide) are at 200 °C for 24 h with 20 vol% 1-butanol; however, these conditions can be further optimized as 160 °C for 20 h with 5 vol% 1-butanol by simulating the growth process of nanomaterials in accordance to combine DSC curves with thermodynamic equations.
