Abstract

Basic copper acetate can be obtained by mixing copper acetate with sodium hydroxide solutions. However, the quality of the resulting crystals is usually poor. An unknown peak appears in its X-ray diffraction pattern, and moreover, the intensity of the peak varies from sample to sample. In this study, effect of mixing methods on the quality of the basic copper acetate crystals was studied. The crystals were synthesized by employing three different mixing methods, which were batch, semi-batch system, and micromixer. The intensity of the unknown peak weakened when the semi-batch system was employed. The results implied that the mixing rate gave strong influence on the quality of the resulting basic copper acetate crystals.
