Abstract

The present work describes the template free formation of copper oxide nanoparticles via chemical solution route with the use of precursor copper acetate hydrate and sodium hydroxide. The XRD reveals that the prepared material is having well crystalline character whereas the morphology of the prepared nanoparticles (size about 30-40 nm) was investigated via SEM and it denotes that the observation from XRD is clearly consistent, which have spherical in shape. The TEM was further utilized to confirm the particle shape and size of the grown material, which is in full consistent and exhibit in range 30-40 nm. The FTIR spectroscopy reveal the compositional functional behavior of prepared nanomaterials. Including these analyses, the mass loss with respect to temperature of the grown materials was also observed with TGA. On the basis of microscopic and chemical analysis, we have also proposed the growth mechanism of prepared CuO nanocrystals.
