Mechanically Activated Solid-Phase Reaction of Copper(I) Chloride with Sodium β-Diketonates: Formation of Metallic Copper Nanoparticles

Аннотация

Solid-phase reaction of copper(I) chloride with sodium β-diketonates under mechanical activation in a vibration ball mill involves disproportionation of CuCl with the formation of the corresponding copper(II) β-diketonate and highly reactive X-ray amorphous metallic copper nanoparticles. The effect of reaction conditions on the process and some properties of the activated mixtures have been studied.
