Nickel Itaconate Thermolysis

Аннотация

Experimental-statistical mathematical models are built for nickel itaconate thermolysis to relate some response functions (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nickel concentrations in the nanocomposite, yield of the nanocomposite, contents of β-nickel and nickel oxide phases, and nanoparticle diameter) to the thermolysis temperature and time. Response surfaces are constructed to illustrate the dependence of the above-listed response functions on the thermolysis temperature and time. These response functions are analyzed to determine the synthetic parameters that would provide the preparation of nanocomposites with tailored characteristics, in particular, with the highest content of the magnetoactive β-nickel phase.
