ABSTRACT:
Pure CdSiO3 nanopowder was prepared by solution combustion (SC) technique at low temperature of at 800 ºC for 2 h by using different silicate precursors like meso-porous silica, tetraethyl ortho silicate (TEOS), fumed silica (SiO2) and oxyledehydrazide (ODH) used as a fuel. The powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) showed the pure monoclinic phase and the crystallite sizes were in the range of 23 - 43 nm. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transition electron microscope (TEM) results reveal that the pure CdSiO3 nanopowder were porous and agglomerated with irregular nanopowder. Fourier infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopic analysis is to confirm the materials and to identify the chemical functional groups in the sample. Antibacterial studies of pure CdSiO3 nanopowder prepared by TEOS better than the other silica precursors is a common cause of skin infections such as abscesses, respiratory infections such as sinusitis and food poisoning.
