Synthesis and Characterization of ZnO Nano Particles by Sol Gel Method

Now-a-days, it is very difficult to understand the behavior of ZnO nano particles deposited on Mild steel by any process. Challenge to design the suitable material for various industries like ship industries, marine industries and petro chemical industries .Generally ships do fail due to corrosion problem so to overcome this metals are undergone heat treatment process and coating is done with suitable materials to overcome corrosion. For this study the ZnO nano particles were synthesized by sol gel process. The characteristics of ZnO nano particles were studied by using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) for crystal structure, Particle Size Analyzer for finding particle size of ZnO nano particle. The absorption spectra of ZnO nano particles suspended in deionized water were recorded at room temperature using UV-visible spectroscopy and the morphology of ZnO nano particles was investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
