| Article Name : | | | SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF COBALT HYDROXIDE NANOPARTICLES | | Author Name : | | | R. Hepzi Pramila Devamani , A. Abirami and R. Isai | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-4972 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | Cobalt hydroxide nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical co-precipitation method from cobalt chloride and sodium hydroxide. Structural and compositional properties were characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR and UV spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the preferential growth of cobalt hydroxide nanoparticles that width is 73.42nm. The SEM image shows the synthesized cobalt hydroxide show well crystallized particles with rod like morphology. The FTIR spectrum is used to study the stretching and bending frequencies of molecular functional groups in the sample. From UV spectrum, the band gap of cobalt hydroxide nanoparticles is found to be 2.7eV. | | Keywords : | | |
