Abstract

A microwave (MW) method has been developed for the preparation of a ZnO/Ag nanocomposite using methods of chemical precipitation and decomposition of thermally unstable compounds. Chemical co-deposition is a simple and efficient method in comparison with other methods of obtaining a ZnO/Ag nanocomposite. The characteristics of the synthesized product were determined by differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray phase analysis (XRA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The studies carried out show the effectiveness of MW treatment in the production of ZnO/Ag nanocomposites.
