Resumo
In this paper, we report on the reflux synthesis at 90 degrees C and hydrothermal processing at 120 degrees C for obtention of zirconium oxide (ZrO2) nanopowders under several conditions. These nanopowders; were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform Raman (FT-Raman) spectroscopy, adsorption-desorption N-2-isotherms, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). XRD patterns and Raman spectra indicated that ZrO2 nanopowders present a monoclinic structure. In addition, the hydrothermal processing promoted an increase in crystallinity of ZrO2 nanopowders. FT-IR spectra revealed a small shoulder on the nu (Zr-O) bands in transmittance spectra of the ZrO2 nanopowders. The decomposition of precursor was accompanied by evolution of TGA curves. The morphology of ZrO2 nanopowders was observed by FEG-SEM. Also, the FEG-SEM micrographs revealed that the presence of H2O2 in systems reduced the particle size, while the absence of promoted an increase in particle size. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
