Chemical Synthesis and Characterization of Nanometer-Scale Copper and Nickel Compound Powder

Nanometer-scale copper and nickel compound powder has been prepared by using CuSO₄ 5H₂O and NISO₄ 6H₂O as raw materials and N₂H₄ H₂O as reducing agent at 60℃. The size, appearance and composition of the compound powder have also been analyzed by TEM, XRD and SEM with EDS. The average size of the compound powder is 40 urn. The feasibility of reducing course can be testified by thermodynamics calculation.
