  • Descrição: ► The synthesis method of the zinc and magnesium chromites original. ► The redox reaction between 1,3-propanediol and the mixture of metal nitrates leads to metal carboxylate precursors. ► By a cwontrolled thermal decomposition of these precursors nanocrystalline ZnCr 2O 4 and MgCr 2O 4 are obtained starting with 400 and 500 °C. ► Both chromites have been obtained as octahedral nanoparticles with diameters lower than 100 nm, agglomerated into micrometric aggregates. In this paper we report a study regarding the preparation of zinc and magnesium chromites nanopowders starting from Zn(NO 3) 2·6H 2O, Mg(NO 3) 2·6H 2O, Cr(NO 3) 3·9H 2O and 1,3-propanediol (1,3PG). The used method consists in two steps: (i) the synthesis of the precursors (M(II)/M(III) carboxylate/hydroxycarboxylate compounds) by the redox reaction at 140 °C between the metal nitrates and 1,3PG and (ii) the controlled thermal decomposition of the precursors followed by the annealing at different temperatures. According to the thermal analysis, the precursors decompose in the temperature range 250–300 °C leading to the formation of the primary oxidic system (Cr 2O 3+ x + MO; M = Zn, Mg). XRD patterns of the powders annealed at different temperatures (400, 500, 600, 1000 °C) showed that ZnCr 2O 4 formed in the reaction (Cr 2O 3 + ZnO) crystallizes at 400 °C, while MgCr 2O 4 crystallizes starting with 500 °C, as a result of MgCrO 4 thermal decomposition. Both chromites were obtained as nanocrystallites.
