Abstract :
Nanopowders were synthesized employing a new route sol-gel combustion hybrid method using acetylene black as a fuel. The dried gels exhibited auto-catalytic combustion behavior. ITO and FTO nanopowders with narrow size distribution were obtained at 750degC. Crystal structures were examined by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and particle morphology as well as crystal size was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The size of nanopowder was found to be in the range of 16nm to 33 nm.
