| Abstract | Article history : Structural features of the La (1-x)Sr xMn 0.5 Co 0.5 O3 (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5) nano-particles were investigated using X-ray powder diffraction and FT-IR spectroscopy. The characterization of compounds by X-ray powder diffraction and using Fullprof program show a cubic structure (Pm3m space group) for x = 0.0 and a rhombohedra structure (R-3c space group) for the Sr substituted La (1-x)Sr xMn 0.5 Co 0.5 O3 samples. Crystallite size and unit cell parameters decrease with Sr substitution. The electrical conductivity of the samples in oxidizing (air) and reducing atmosphere (6%CO in nitrogen) as well as band gap of the samples have been investigated to interpret the performance of the samples. Results show that their behavior is enhanced non-un iformly with increase in Sr substitution. An increase of Sr subs titution up to 0.5 enhances the performance of the samples and an opti mal catalytic activity in the low-temperature conversion of CO to CO 2. It is mainly attributed to a decrease of the crystallite size. |
