SPECTROSCOPIC AND THERMAL STUDIES OF GEL-GROWN COPPER MALONATE CRYSTALS

摘要

Copper malonate crystals were grown using silica gel as the growth medium. The grown crystals were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Fourier transform in- frared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy (FT Raman). The thermal decomposition of the compound was investigated using thermogravimetry (TG) and derivative thermogravimetry (DTG) measurements.
