Abstract

Abstract In present studies, a new and efficient method for synthesis of cadmium oxide nanoparticles by using microwave (MW) activation is reported. To ensure the specific efficiency of microwave irradiation versus conventional heating, the synthesis of Cd (OH) 2 as precursor of CdO was carried out under similar temperature (80 C), time and reaction conditions without microwave irradiation. The formation of CdO was characterized by XRD ...
