Abstract

Hydrolysis of metal salts in the presence of hexamethylenetetramine (HMT) is widely used to synthesize a variety of inorganic oxides, including zinc oxide. In particular, this method allows one to obtain ordered arrays of ZnO nanorods [1], which have a high specific surface and low defect content. At present, the ZnO synthesis with the use of HMTA under prehydrothermal conditions has been studied in detail. At the same time no information is available so far regarding the use of this method for the synthesis of ZnO under hydrothermal conditions (at temperatures above 100 °C). We synthesized for the first time zinc oxide with the use of HMT and hydrothermal microwave (HTMW) treatment and analyzed the influence of the synthesis parameters on the morphology and functional properties of zinc oxide.
