MgAl2O4 nanopowder synthesis by microwave assisted high energy ball-milling
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract This paper reports the development of a new process for the synthesis of spinel nano powder via microwave assisted high energy ball milling of a powder mixture containing Al(OH)3 and Mg(OH)2. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Simultaneous thermal analysis (STA), FTIR spectrometer, BET and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques were utilized to characterize the as-milled and annealed samples. X-ray diffraction results provide evidence for the formation of a completely amorphous phase after milling for 8 h. It is found that highly ordered MgAl2O4 spinel can be obtained by calcination the as-milled powder over 800 °C. Also, SEM observations of synthesized powders showed that the particle size of powders lies in the nano meter range compared with the BET results (about 28–149 nm). The DTA–TG analyses were carried out to investigate the effect of microwave heating on the synthesis temperature compared to the conventional heat treatment by conventional furnace. Synthesis of powders with different heating methods showed that microwave heating reduces the synthesis temperature by about 200 °C.
