Description
Summary:Nitrate doped calcium hydroxide nanomaterials have shown the great potential in several application that includes thermochemical heat storage and act as catalyst to produce diesel. In this work, we report the synthesis of nitrate doped calcium hydroxide nanomaterial. The calcium hydroxide was synthesis by simple chemical methods. The doping of nitrate in calcium hydroxide was done at room temperature and at 60°C. All the prepared three samples i.e. calcium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide doped with nitrate at room temperature and calcium hydroxide doped with nitrate at 60°C was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and UV-Vis spectroscopy techniques. From UV-Vis spectroscopic results, it was seen that in comparison of calcium hydroxide, the band gap of calcium hydroxide doped with nitrate at room temperature increases and the band gap of calcium hydroxide doped with nitrate at 60°C decreases. The obtained results are discussed in term of reaction kinetics.
