Hydrothermal Synthesis of Plumbum Hexacyanoferrate(II)

A facile hydrothermal approach was developed for the controllable synthesis of plumbum hexacyanoferrate(Ⅱ)(PbHCF(Ⅱ)) cube-like microparticles.The composition,morphology,and structure of the as-prepared PbHCF(Ⅱ) products were characterized by the techniques such as powder X-ray diffraction(XRD),infrared spectroscopy(IR),energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS),and scanning electron microscopy(SEM).The formula of the prepared PbHCF(Ⅱ) could be assigned to be Pb2[Fe(CN)6] ·xH2O.It was observed that the size and morphology of the PbHCF(Ⅱ) microparticles were altered by experimental parameters.
