| Abstract | Nanocomposite of Mn2O3/SiO2 was prepared through a base catalyst assisted insitu sol-gel process, in which Mn2O3 nanocrystals were dispersed in the silica amorphous matrix. The synthesized dried gel, at 373 K, was heat treated at different temperatures and the nanocomposite formation temperature (1023 – 1173 K) was monitored through the XRD study. The size of the dispersed Mn2O3 crystallite in the silica matrix was calculated using Scherer’s formula and size of the crystallites was found to be 30 nm. The structure and thermal behavior for the formation of nanocomposite was identified through the FTIR and TG-DTA analysis, respectively. |
