Obtaining of NiO Nanosheets by a Combination of Sol–Gel Technology and Hydrothermal Treatment Using Nickel Acetylacetonate as a Precursor

详细

Nickel oxide nanosheets were manufactured using sol–gel technology and hydrothermal treatment. The effect of hydrothermal treatment on the hierarchical organization character of the thus-manufactured oxide powder was shown. The microstructural parameters of the powder were studied by transmission (TEM) and scanning (SEM) electron microscopy; The homogeneity of the powder and the absence of impurities of another chemical composition were verified by energy dispersive elemental microanalysis (EDX).
