abstract = "Coordination chemistry provides the know-how for the synthesis of the
precursor compounds with variable composition and structures, while the thermal
induced changes may control the crystalline structure, phase composition,
morphology, size, texture, and other properties of their pyrolytic products [1]. In
terms of coordination chemistry and thermal analysis, our research has been focused
on the synthesis of mixed ligand complexes [2] that can be used as precursors for
obtaining diverse (compositional and structural) oxides, depending on their
thermoreactivity.
The main goal of this approach was the reduction of the temperature at which
the oxides are formed (up to 600–700 °C) comparative to the standard ceramic
methods. The effect of the different atmospheres (dynamic air or N2) on the thermal
decomposition of Zn benzenedicarboxylate complexes with 2,2’-dipyridylamine was
investigated. The formation of ZnO nanopowders was identified using XRPD and
FESEM techniques. The influence of the adopted architecture of ternary metal
complexes used as templates for ZnO nanopowders was discussed. The thermal
decomposition kinetics of precursors was studied under non-isothermal conditions.
In addition, the antibacterial activity of obtained ZnO nanopowders was also
analyzed.
