Abstract:

In this study, NiO nanoparticles were prepared by the sol-gel method, which is one of the simplest and lowest-cost techniques. The synthesis was accomplished by using Troton X100 as the surfactant and Ni(NO3)2·6H2O as the inorganic precursor. The influence of experimental factors, such as optimization of calcination temperatures for the synthesis of NiO nanoparticles, was investigated. To confirm the formation of Nickel oxide, the calcined samples were examined by FT-IR spectra. Further, the structural characteristics of the calcined samples at temperature 8000c were examined by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The end result places the dynamic routes as a simple, low-cost contestant to the assembly of nickel oxide nanoparticles.

Keywords:

TritonX100, solgel, NiO nanoparticles, calcination temperature, and deionized water.
