Abstract
Calcium tartrate finds various applications. In the present study, calcium tartrate nanoparticles were synthesized by wet chemical method using surfactant mediated approach. The powder XRD pattern revealed the typical broadening of peaks indicating the nanostructured nature. The average crystallite size was calculated by applying the Scherrer's formula to powder XRD pattern and was found in the range of 22.8–23.9 nm. The particle size and morphology of the synthesized nanoparticles was confirmed by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). FTIR spectroscopy was used to confirm the presence of various functional groups. From TGA, it was found that calcium tartrate nanoparticles remained stable up to 120°C and were having two water molecules associated with them. The results are compared with the bulk crystalline materials available in the literature.
