Role of fuel and fuel-to-oxidizer ratio in combustion synthesis of nano-crystalline nickel oxide powders
Source abstract
Abstract
Nanocrystalline nickel oxide (NiO) powders are synthesized using combustion technique, with nickel nitrate hexahydrate as the oxidizer, and glycine and urea as fuels. Effect of fuel-to-oxidizer (F/O) ratio on the powder characteristics such as the shape, particle size, agglomeration, crystallite size, composition, residual carbon content, and sinterability is studied. It is found that, powder characteristics are a strong function of the type of fuel, and the F/O ratio. Compared to powders synthesized using glycine as the fuel, powders synthesized using area had a more spherical shape, smaller and harder agglomerates, smaller crystallite size, less content of metallic Ni, higher residual carbon content, and higher sinterability.
