Nanotechnology has multiple and enormous
advantages for all application. Therefore, this research is carried out
to synthesize and characterize bimetallic iron with copper
nanoparticles. After synthesizing nano zero valent iron by reduction
of ferric chloride by sodium borohydride under nitrogen purging
environment, bimetallic iron with copper nanoparticles are
synthesized by varying different loads of copper chloride. Due to
different standard potential (E0
) values of copper and iron, copper is
coupled with iron at (Cu to Fe ratio of 1:5, 1:6.7, 1:10, 1:20). It is
found that the resulted bimetallic Fe/Cu nanoparticles are composing
phases of iron and copper. According to the diffraction patterns
indicating the state of chemical combination of the bimetallic
nanoparticles, the particles are well-combined and crystalline sizes
are less than 1000Ao
(or 100nm). Specifically, particle sizes of
synthesized bimetallic Fe/Cu nanoparticles are ranging from 44.583
nm to 85.149 nm.
