Description
Summary:A kind of ZnO/MgO core‐sheath structure has been prepared directly by the pyrolysis of a mixture of polyvinyl alcohol, magnesium acetate, and zinc chloride coating on glass fiber mats at 450 °C for 60 min. The growing process and effect of the anions on the morphology of ZnO/MgO structures have been preliminarily discussed. The results indicate that ZnCl2 will transform to ZnO crystal through an intermediate of zinc hydroxide chloride. ZnO crystal act as the core of the micorod, and MgO lamellas act as the sheath. The concurrence of chloride and acetate anions in the precursor is necessary for the growth of ZnO/MgO core‐sheath structures. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
