Abstract

This research work has developed a classic method to synthesize high crystalline ~50nm copper (Cu) nanoparticles at a low temperature of 80oC. While nanoparticle synthesis is a concern, a rapid chemical reduction method (CRM) was introduced by reducing copper salts and an appropriate capping agent. The capping agent facilities controlled the movement and formation of nanoparticles that were further investigated by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermo-gravimetric Analysis (TGA), Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), and Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED) as well as TEM couple EDS. The such in-depth analysis demonstrates a 100% crystalline phase with having to predominate (111), (200), and (220) planes and 84% purity. The medium and process protocol selection may be adapted to synthesize other nanoparticles for different functional applications.
