Characterization and Growth Morphology of the Ultrafine Manganese Particles

摘要

In present work.the ultrafine manganese particles were prepared by gas evaporation method.Thestructure,size distribution,growth morphology and surface oxidation for the particles were investi-gated by using X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy.The results indicated that three types ofthe particles,with the structure of α-Mn,β-Mn and one unknown,respectively existed in the man-ganese particles.The growth morphology of the particles depended on the size and intrinsicstructure.When exposed to air,the particles were slightly oxidized only in the surface layer and sta-ble in air.
