Abstract
Vanadium Oxides nanomaterial has shown a great potential in numerous application due to its high light absorption phenomena in the visible range. Among all the possible phases of vanadium oxides, herein we report a simple and facile hydrothermal route for the synthesis of vanadium pentaoxide (V2O5) synthesis at low temperatures. Thread like nanostructures of V2O5 were developed by calcination of vanadyl glycolate (VO(CH2O)2) which was synthesized by hydrothermal route using ammonium vanadate as precursor in the presence of hydrochloric acid (HCL) at low temperature 180 °C. Our develop process of synthesis is free from any templates and reduction agents. Further, the morphology, chemical and structural properties was characterized using Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman profile and FTIR spectroscopy. The FESEM studies confirms the formation of vanadium pentaoxide in thread shape with thickness in the range of 80 ± 20 nm and length in 4–5 µm. Also, X-Ray diffraction and Raman profile reveals the formation of the orthohombic phase of V2O5.The above synthesized nanostructure materials can be further used in enhancing li-ion batteries efficiency and various thermal and optoelectronic applications.
