SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL HIGHLY POROUS CuS GOLF BALLS BY HYDROTHERMAL METHOD AND THEIR APPLICATION IN AMMONIA GAS SENSING

Abstract: A novel kind of porous CuS golf balls with an average diameter of 2µm have been successfully synthesized by using CuCl powders as source PVP as soft template based on a template-directed approach. This process involves the conversion of CuCl to CuS via reaction with H 2 S, which is produced by hydrolyzing thiourea. The transformation of oxidation state of Cu + to Cu 2+ can proceed smoothly due to the larger lattice energy of CuS in comparison with that of CuCl. The asprepared samples have been characterized by… Show more
