Facile synthesis and characterization of nanostructured flower-like copper molybdate by the co-precipitation method

Nanostructured flower-like copper molybdate (CuMoO4) have been successfully synthesized with remarkable morphology via the co-precipitation method process by using Cu(Sal)2 (Sal=salicylidene) and (NH4)6Mo7O24·4H2O as starting materials. Influence of parameters such as temperature, reaction time, sol...

Description
Summary:Nanostructured flower-like copper molybdate (CuMoO4) have been successfully synthesized with remarkable morphology via the co-precipitation method process by using Cu(Sal)2 (Sal=salicylidene) and (NH4)6Mo7O24·4H2O as starting materials. Influence of parameters such as temperature, reaction time, solvent and surfactant were studied to achieve the best condition. It was found that the morphology and particles size of the final products could be greatly influenced by these parameters. The as-synthesized nanostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, Energy Dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). •A facile co-precipitation method was successfully employed to prepare CuMoO4.•The effects of some parameters such as temperature, time, surfactant and solvent were investigated.•PEG 600, SDS, PVP and CTAB were used as surfactant.•Optimum condition for preparation CuMoO4 flower like was investigated.
