[0039] Weigh InCl 3 ·4H 2 O 0.5865g, urea 0.2401g(InCl 3 ·4H 2 The molar ratio of O to urea is 1:2), dissolved in 56ml of deionized water, magnetically stirred for 1 hour to form a colorless and transparent solution, transferred to a hydrothermal kettle, and reacted at 130°C for 18 hours. After the hydrothermal kettle is cooled to room temperature, take out the hydrothermal product. The hydrothermal product was separated by centrifugation, washed with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol three times, and then dried in an oven at 60°C for 2 hours to prepare a white precursor powder. figure 1 Based on the X-ray diffraction pattern of the precursor prepared in this example, it can be known by comparing with the standard card that the precursor obtained is cubic phase indium hydroxide (JCPDS No. 76-1463). figure 2 In the field emission scanning electron micrograph of the precursor indium hydroxide obtained in this example, it can be observed that the morphology o...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing nano indium oxide with controllable appearance by a hydrothermal method. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) weighing soluble indium salt and urea in a molar ratio of 1:2-1:15, and adding de-ionized water into the mixture to prepare uniform colorless transparent solution with magnetic stirring; then transferring the solution to the inner lining of a reaction kettle; preserving the heat at the temperature of between 120 and 140 DEG C to perform reaction for 12 to 24 hours; cooling the reaction product to room temperature; and performing centrifugal separation, and washing and drying the product to prepare a white precursor In(OH)3; and (2) calcining the dried indium hydroxide for 2 to 3 hours in air atmosphere at the temperature of between 450 and 550 DEG C to prepare slightly yellow indium oxide powder. The preparation method has the advantages of simple process, low production cost and capability of preparing the indium hydroxide nanostructures with various appearances by only adjusting and controlling the ratio of the raw materials without any template, surfactant or structure directing agent, and provides a convenient method for synthesizing the nano indium oxide with controllable appearance.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of preparation of nano indium oxide, and particularly relates to a method for preparing nano indium oxide with a controllable morphology by a hydrothermal method. Background technique [0002] In recent years, nanoscience and nanotechnology have developed by leaps and bounds. Researchers have invested a lot of energy in the synthesis of nanomaterials, but finding a simple synthesis method for new nanostructures with specific functions is still a huge challenge for today's nanotechnology. [0003] Indium oxide is a special wide-bandgap semiconductor (its direct band gap is 3.6eV, and the indirect band gap is 2.6eV). It has a small resistivity and high catalytic activity. It has been used in solar cells and flat panel displays. , Optical devices, optoelectronic devices, and gas sensors have been widely used in fields. As the demand for its applications increases, it is necessary to control the morphology and size of its indi...
