Large Scale Synthesis of Novel Flower-like Strontium Molybdate Nanostructures via Co-precipitation Method

چکیده مقاله

Abstract In this work, we have successfully prepared flower-like strontium molybdate nanostructures via coprecipitation approach by utilizing Sr(Sal)2 (Sal = salicylidene) and ammonium hepta molybdate as starting materials in water as solvent. Phases, morphologies and optical properties were analyzed by Fourier transform Infrared spectra, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. To obtain optimum conditions, we considered the effects of temperature, solvent, surfactant and strontium source. It was established that morphology, particle size and phase of the final products could be extremely affected via these parameters. It was revealed that utilizing of water as solvent provided flower-like nanostructures.
