Thermal, structural, and impedance analysis of nanocrystalline magnesium chromite spinel synthesized via hydrothermal process
Nanocrystalline magnesium chromite spinel was synthesized through hydrothermal reaction of metal nitrate solutions in stoichiometric amount at different pH, temperature and time intervals. The synthesized products were characterized for crystallinity, phase identification, and surface morphology by...

description | Nanocrystalline magnesium chromite spinel was synthesized through hydrothermal reaction of metal nitrate solutions in stoichiometric amount at different pH, temperature and time intervals. The synthesized products were characterized for crystallinity, phase identification, and surface morphology by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). XRD patterns showed that as-synthesized product remained amorphous up to 250 °C. However, well-crystallized magnesium chromite spinel structure is formed after calcination at 850 °C. Rietveld refinement study confirms the formation of single-phase cubic structure MgCr

products showed extensive XRD line broadening, and the mean crystallite size of such crystals was found to be mainly in size range of 85–124 nm. Surface SEM images of calcined specimens revealed that the matrix is uniform, and no separation of secondary phase was detected.
