Preparation and characterization of Ni/NiO nanoparticles from (NH4)2[Ni(dipic)2] as a precursor

The present investigation reports, the novel synthesis of nanoparticles Ni/NiO using thermal decomposition and their characterization. The nanoparticles Ni/NiO powder with uniform size around 30-38 nm and well dispersion have been prepared using (NH4)2[Ni(dipic)2] as precursorfollowed by heat treatment at 350, 450 and 550 °C. The structure and particle size of prepared nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA).
