A facile and novel synthesis of bimetallic copper-manganese oxide nanoparticles anchored on carbon nanotubes: Fullerenes, Nanotubes and Carbon Nanostructures: Vol 0, No 0

Summary

Within the present contribution, copper-manganese bimetallic oxide nanoparticles connected to carbon nanotube surfaces have been created using a simple technique quite than sophisticated equipment. The employed sources of Cu and Mn had been copper sulfate and potassium permanganate, which had been mixed with modified carbon nanotubes and thermally handled at 250, 350, and 450 °C, respectively. Because the annealing temperature rises from 250 to 450 °C, the copper-manganese bimetallic oxide nanoparticles adhered to the floor of the carbon nanotubes steadily develop in dimension from 9 to 45 nm. XRD and FTIR strategies had been used to check structural traits. The existence of copper-manganese bimetallic oxide phases was established primarily based on the outcomes. The height top and sharpness of the XRD information had been additionally improved by rising the annealing temperature, reflecting an enchancment within the crystallinity. A broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) was used to indicate how the utilized frequency affected the dielectric traits.
