Investigation of catalytic and fuel additive applications of copper/copper(I) oxide/copper(II) oxide (Cu/CuO/Cu2O) microspheres synthesized by hydrothermal method using sucrose as template

Role of sucrose in sequential reduction of copper (II) ions is investigated. Copper/copper(I) oxide/copper(II) oxide (Cu/CuO/Cu _2 O) microspheres are synthesized via hydrothermal method using sucrose as template. Size of microparticles lies in 9–16 μ m range. Formation mechanism of spherical archit...
