Nano-sized nickel hydroxide powder has been synthesized by complexation-precipitation method through various decomposition routes in order to investigate its effect on textural and structural characteristics of the nickel hydroxide products. The products were then characterized by various analytical techniques such as XRD, SEM, ICP and FTIR. The results showed that the product with different size, shape and structure could be obtained by using different routes for decomposition of the complex.
In this research Sr-hexaferrite powder was synthesized by a sol–gel auto-combustion route using two different fuels (glycine and citric acid) and two different basic agents (ammonia and trimethylamine). N-decyltrimethylammonium bromide (C13H30BrN) was also employed as a cationic surfactant. The results showed the finest crystallite size and the lowest calcination temperature have been obtained as 27.2 nm and 800 °C respectively, in the presence of citric acid, trimethylamine and surfactant.
