Abstract

Zirconia 1-D nanomaterials have shown extraordinary and unique capabilities ranging from electronics and medical technologies to chemical engineering and biotechnology. Polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG6000) was used as a structure-directing template to guide the synthesis of zirconia 1-D nanomaterials from zirconium hydrates manufactured locallyof the nanomaterials. There was a wide range of PEG/Zr mole ratios (0.067 to 0.167), pH was set at 9, the temperature was set at 80°C, and the ageing periods were anywhere from one to three hours. For the mineralogy of the synthetic zirconia, an X-ray diffractogram was employed, and the thermal behaviour of the zirconia was evaluated using a thermal gradient differential thermal analysis technique (TG-DTA). Meanwhile, scanning and transmission electron microscopes were used to study the zirconia that had been manufactured.
