Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of some synthesized metal oxide nanoparticles

Nanoparticles reveal exceptionally attractive thermal properties which make them an impending material for use in various heat transfer devices. In the present study Nanoparticles of CuO, Co2O3, Fe2O3 and ZnO have been synthesized. Thermal activity of nanomaterials is interesting for comprehension of composition and impurities. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) employed to carry out thermodynamic parameters of all samples. Kinetic parameters, such as thermal activation energy, enthalpy, entropy & gibbs energy, have been calculated from TGA statistics. The thermal stability of these nanoparticles was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis on the basis of thermal experiments (TGA). The thermogravimetric analysis with all the empirical evidence mentioned briefly in the current study. The activation energy and all thermodynamic parameters for all phases of decomposition have been determined using the Broido process. The effect and appearance of the thermodynamics parameter were discussed in the related sections. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
