Synthesis of SrMoO₄ microstructures by the microwave radiation‐assisted chelating agent method

SrMoO 4 rose‐like and persimmon‐like structures were synthesized via microwave radiation‐assisted chelating agent method. The microstructure and morphology of the as‐prepared samples were analyzed by X‐ray diffraction and field‐emission scanning electron microscope. According to the experimental results, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, as an outstanding chelating agent, plays an important role in inducing the morphology evolution.
