Abstract

Magnesium aluminate(MgAl2O4) powder sample was successfully prepared by co-precipitation method. The structural properties of the prepared material was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). XRD study shows that the sample has the spinel structure and crystallite size of the prepared sample was 6.2 nm. FTIR spectrum explained the vibrational stretching frequencies of the material. Results of transmission electron microscopy with electron diffraction (TEM-ED) corroborates with XRD analysis. The morphology of the film and elemental composition of the sample was studied by using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDAX) and the result shows the prepared film contain highly porous structure.
