CuO Rapid Synthesis with Different Morphologies by the Microwave Hydrothermal Method

Listed in DataCite

CuO structures were synthesized by microwave hydrothermal treatment using two different mineralizing agents (NaOH and NH4OH) and were evaluated as photocatalysts.

Description

The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area analysis. The XRD patterns indicated the formation of the monoclinic phase in both samples with 13.78 and 14.23 nm crystallite size.

SEM analysis showed different agglomerates morphologies based on the mineralization agent employed. The CuO nanostructure synthesized with NH4OH presented agglomerated like-plates which results in a spherical shape, whereas the material synthesized with NaOH presented an agglomerate of larger plates. Both samples showed photocatalytic activity against RNL azo dye.

The quasi-spherical shape CuO material reached 93 % of the discoloration.
