Nickel permanganate as a precursor in the synthesis of a NiMn2O4 spinel

Schmidt JA, Sagua AE, Bazan JC, Prat MR, Braganza ME, Moran E

The present study describes the preparation, characterization, and thermal decomposition of the compound Ni(MnO4)(2)(.)xH(2)O, which was synthesized by a coprecipitation method at a low temperature. The role of this compound as a precursor in the synthesis of a Ni-Mn spinel was determined via X-ray, TG-DTA, electron diffraction, and EDAX measurements. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
