Study the structure and morphology of the compound (ZnO) 0.8(CuO)0.2 by using nano materials.

Abstract

Recent nanotechnological advances suggest that metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have been expected to be used in various fields. ZnO ,CuO nano powders have been characterized by X-Ray Diffraction. Was used this nanomaterial to Prepare compacted-materials of (ZnO)x(CuO)1-x, by using powder metallurgy with weight ratio (x=0.8). The particle size calculations were done using XRD Scherer’s formula (46.218 nm). The structure and surface morphology of the compound were examined by means of X-Ray Diffraction and scanning electron microscopic (SEM). XRD is an easy tool to determine the size and the shape of the unit cell for any compound .Composite nanostructures of these two oxides (CuO/ZnO) may pave the way for various new applications.
