Abstract

In this study, iron tin oxide nanocomposites with chemical structure of Fe1.42Sn0.435 O3 (Fe2O3:Sn) were synthesized by coprecipitation method. The effects of annealing temperatures at T = 250 °C, 450 °C, 550 °C, 650 °C and 750 °C on the formation of nanocomposite, crystallite size, morphology and optical, and electrochemical properties were investigated. The iron tin oxide nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission electron microscopy (FESEM), UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and specific capacitance (SC) analysis. The results obtained from structural analysis for the synthesized samples show that the sample annealed at T = 450 °C has the highest intensity with preferred peak (110) and more uniform grain size. The FESEM images from synthesized nanostructures show the polyhedral and cubic grain with a particle-cluster growth. The band gap (Eg) was determined between 1.96 eV and 2.58 eV, and SFO-2 sample annealed at T = 450 °C is the optimized sample with Eg = 2.20 eV. The FTIR results indicate the formation of tin ferrite oxide structure. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) results are consistent with the redox reactions carried out in hematite metal oxide, tin oxide, and KOH solution. The specific capacitance (SC) analysis for scan rates of 2–200 (mV s−1) shows values between 472–822 (F g−1).
