Zinc oxide powders have been synthesized by a co-precipitation method using zinc acetate dehydrate and methanol as the reactants. A number of process parameters such as reaction temperature, solution basicity or pH and heating time are the main factors affecting the morphology and physical properties of the ZnO nanostructures The synthesized particles were characterized to study their microstructural properties by scanning electron microscopy and the presence of the functional group the Fourier Transform-Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) has been carried out and analysed.
