Abstract
CaSnO3 nanopowders had been successfully synthesized via a reverse microemulsion method. The effects of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide and polyoxyethylene octyl phenyl ether as surfactants on the size and morphology of the particles were also investigated. The synthesized products were systematically studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (DTA-TG), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that the kind of surfactants has an important effect on the average size and morphology of the particles.
