Abstract

ZnO nanoparticles have received enormous attention due to their wide range of application such as diodes, ultraviolet-protection films, catalysts, sensors, ceramics and solar energy transformation parts. In the current research, ZnO nanoparticles were prepared by polymer decomposition. Synthesized ZnO nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and transition electron microscopy (TEM) and size distribution of these particles was investigated. Narrow size distribution of particles with a diameter of 20–30 nm and the regular distribution of ZnO nanoparticles were attributed to the application of poly amidoxime polymer. The results show that the polymer thermal decomposition technique is a feasible method for production of ZnO nanoparticles.
