Artigo IPEN-doc 30786 Synthesis and local characterization of CoO nanoparticles in distinct phases2024 - SANTOS, SUZILENE V.; COSTA, CLEIDILANE S.; PARAGUASSU, WALDECI; SILVA, CRYSTIAN W.C.; OTUBO, LARISSA; SOUZA, KATIUSSE S.; CORREA, BRUNO S.; MIRANDA-FILHO, ARNALDO A.; FERREIRA, WANDERSON L.; CARBONARI, ARTUR W.; CABRERA-PASCA, GABRIEL A.The advancement of functional nanomaterials has become a major focus of recent research, driven by the exceptional properties these materials display compared to their macroscopic (bulk) counterparts. Cobalt oxide nanoparticles (CoO-NPs) stand out primarily for their catalytic and magnetic properties, which can enable a range of technological applications, such as advanced catalysts, drug delivery systems, implants, prosthetics, sensors. However, in addition to the dependence on factors such as size, morphology, and functionalization, the properties of CoO-NPs are significantly influenced by the crystal structure. Therefore, local investigation into the polymorphic structures of CoO at the nanometric scale may provide new insights into the local structural and magnetic characteristics of these systems. In this report, we address the synthesis and local characterization of cobalt oxide (CoO) nanoparticles in the rock-salt cubic fcc-CoO and Wurtzite hpc-CoO phases, obtained through thermal decomposition. We analyze the influence of oleylamine and oleic acid ligands on the structural and morphological control of these systems. The obtained nanoparticles were characterized using conventional techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Local characterization was carried out by the perturbed angular correlation (PAC) nuclear technique using the radioactive tracer 111In(111Cd). Measurements were conducted at 295 and 10 K to investigate possible magnetic phase transitions in these systems. XRD results confirmed the formation of fcc-CoO and hcp-CoO phases. The phase fcc was obtained with the pair of oleylamine and oleic acid ligands, while the phase hcp phase was synthesized using only oleylamine. Additionally, nanoparticles synthesized with oleylamine and oleic acid exhibited better morphological control compared to those produced with only oleylamine. Raman spectroscopy analyses suggest a phase transformation process resulting in Co3O4. PAC results for hyperfine interactions at the 111In(111Cd) probe nucleus, indicate that the hcp-CoO phase shows smaller hyperfine magnetic interactions (Bhf = 1 T) compared to the fcc-CoO phase (Bhf = 17 T). This suggests the mechanism of superexchange interactions, which are strongly influenced by the Co-O-Co bond angle, which is 110° for the hpc-CoO phase and 180° for the fcc-CoO phase due to the geometries of the systems.Artigo IPEN-doc 30699 Perturbed angular correlation technique applied for studies of formation hafnon structures of HfSiO4 at different temperatures2024 - SALES, T.S.N.; BURIMOVA, A.; PEREIRA, L.F.D.; FILHO, A.A.M.; CORREA, B.S.; SCALISE, L.; FERREIRA, W.L.; SOUZA, K.S.; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, I.S.Artigo IPEN-doc 30219 Investigation of Ni/Ni3C nanoparticle synthesis for application as a catalyst in carbon nanostructure growth2023 - SILVA, CRYSTIAN W.C.; CABRERA-PASCA, GABRIEL A.; SOUZA, KATIUSSE S.; COSTA, CLEIDILANE S.; COSTA, MESSIAS S.; CORREA, BRUNA S.; FERREIRA, WANDERSON L.; FREITAS, RAFAEL S.; CARBONARI, ARTUR W.; OTUBO, LARISSAThe synthesis of functional Ni/Ni3C nanoparticles has attracted significant interest, especially in the field of electrocatalysis, where these promising nanoparticles are employed to develop sophisticated electrocatalysts, particularly for hydrogen production through the hydrogen evolution reaction. However, the significant reactivity of these systems makes them susceptible to degradation, compromising their catalyst performance. One solution explored to mitigate this problem involves the catalytic growth of carbon nanostructures to encapsulate and protect these nanoparticles. The mechanisms for the formation of carbon nanostructures from nanoparticles remain the subject of this study. Among the reported processes, the annealing of nanocatalysts has been described as a highly effective method for producing such systems. This process is influenced by parameters, such as the temperature, atmosphere, and structural and morphological characteristics of the nanocatalysts. In the work reported here, we evaluated the influence of different ligand pairs (oleylamine/oleic acid and oleylamine/palm kernel oil) on the structural, morphological, and magnetic properties of Ni/Ni3C nanoparticles obtained through thermal decomposition at 240 °C for 3 h. Additionally, we investigated the impact of annealing in a nitrogen atmosphere on the structural properties of these nanoparticles and the growth of carbon nanostructures as a protective mechanism. The analyses include conventional techniques such as X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), magnetization measurements, and thermogravimetric analysis with differential scanning calorimetry. Additionally, local analysis was conducted using perturbed angular correlation spectroscopy (PAC) across a broad temperature range (30–693 K), utilizing the radioactive tracer 111In(111Cd) for these measurements. The characterizations revealed that palm kernel oil contributes to the formation of nanoparticles with a higher Ni3C content, a broader size distribution, and a lower saturation magnetization. The PAC measurements in the range of 30–50 K, along with density functional theory calculations, indicated the absence of the Ni-hcp phase in the nanoparticles, a topic frequently discussed in the literature. Moreover, the presence of Ni3C regions with carbon deficiency was identified, characterized by a quadrupole frequency (νQ) of 23 MHz and a hyperfine field (Bhf) of 1 T. The temperature-dependent local analysis, combined with thermal analysis and TEM measurements, confirmed the development of carbon nano-onions around the nanoparticles during thermal treatment above 695 K in a nitrogen atmosphere. This observation demonstrates that nanoparticles obtained with palm kernel oil, which has the highest Ni3C content, offer superior encapsulation of Ni nuclei through these graphitic nanostructures.Resumo IPEN-doc 30169 Comparative local analysis of Ni/Ni3C nanoparticles synthed with oleylamine/oleic acid and oleylamine/palm kernel oil ligand pairs2023 - SILVA, CRYSTIAN W.C. da; OTUBO, LARISSA; SOUZA, KATIUSSE S. de; CARBONARI, ARTUR W.; CORREA, BRUNO S.; FREITAS, RAFAEL S. de; PASCA, GABRIEL A.; COSTA, CLEIDILANE S.In recent decades, Ni/Ni3C nanoparticles have been a topic of interest, especially for their catalytic and magnetic properties, promising as electrocatalysis, for example [1]. These systems are usually obtained by chemical methods, in the presence of ligands responsible for controlling their structure and morphology [2]. In this work, we carried out a comparative study of the hyperfine interactions occurring in Ni/Ni3C nanoparticles, synthed by thermal decomposition in the presence of oleylamine/oleic acid and oleylamine/palm kernel oil ligand pairs, at 513 K, for 3 hours. The local analysis was performed using perturbed correlation spectroscopy (PAC) in the temperature range from 30K to 300K, using the 111Cd probe, implanted in the samples by diffusion, during the synthesis. The parameters of the hyperfine interactions were compared to the results obtained by XRD, TEM and magnetization, indicating the obtainment of Ni/Ni3c nanoparticles of the core-shell type, showing a higher Ni3C content, greater distribution and lower saturation magnetization for nanoparticles synthed with palm kernel oil compared to those obtained with oleic acid. In addition, the hyperfine parameters showed the existence of regions with a quadrupole frequency of 24 MHz and a magnetic hyperfine field of 1T in both samples, which may be indicative of carbon-deficient Ni3C regions, predicted in the literature [3].
