Annotation

The influence of different calcination temperatures on the structural and optical properties, were investigated for aluminium antimonate (AlSbO4) alloy nanoparticles synthesized using Sol-Gel method. The prepared AlSbO4 nanoparticles are calcined at 400 °C, 600 °C, 700 °C and 800 °C. The effect of different calcinations temperature on some physical properties of the prepared sample was studied using X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The results showed that XRD and FT-IR confirmed the formation and the presence of AlSbO4 nanoparticles. The investigation showed that an increase in the calcination temperature led to appreciable decrease in the crystallite size (D) of the synthesized nanoparticles.
