Abstract

The flower-like SnO2 particles are synthesized through a simple hydrothermal process. The microstructure, morphology and the infrared emissivity property of the as-prepared products are characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and infrared spectroradio meter (ISM) respectively. The results show that the as-prepared SnO2 products are all indexed to tetragonal cassiterite phase of SnO2. The different molarity ratios of the OH− concentration to Sn4+ concentration ([OH−]:[Sn4+]) and the polyacrylamide (PAM) lead to the different morphological structures of SnO2, which indicates that both the [OH−]:[Sn4+] and the PAM play an important role in the morphological evolution respectively. The infrared emissivities of the as-prepared SnO2 products are discussed.
