Abstract

Fine-grained, high surface area MgO, NiO and ZnO powders were synthesized by the evaporative decomposition of solutions (EDS) technique at 1000°C from acetate and nitrate salt solutions. The powder characteristics were similar in all cases; however, aggregated powders were obtained from the nitrate salts and aggregate-free powders were obtained from the acetate solutions when reacted in air. This difference is attributed to the oxidation of the acetate radical and/or its residue and that this process acts to disaggregate the salt droplet/particles that are formed during EDS.
