Synthesis, Characterization and Growth Mechanism of Hierarchical Cantaloupe-Like AlOOH Superstructures by a Simple Hydrothermal Process

摘要

An experimental procedure is presented for synthesis of the cantaloupe-like AlOOH superstructures by a hydrothermal process in aqueous solution of cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB). The structure, morphology, purity and size of the products are investigated by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurement and Photoluminescent analysis (PL). A possible formation mechanism of the cantaloupe-like AlOOH superstructure is proposed based on the reaction dynamics process and template-assisted growth.View full textDownload full textRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10584587.2011.576919
