Popis: In the present paper, a green method was applied for the synthesis of SrAl2O4 nanostructures with the aid of microwave irradiation and pomegranate juice. SrAl2O4 nanocrystals were obtained when the raw materials were irradiated with 720–900 W for 6–10 min and then calcinated at 550 °C for 5 h. Using pomegranate juice as a dispersion and stabilizing agent, SrAl2O4 nanoparticles have been made with better properties in view of morphology and particle size. Also, the effect of some parameters affecting synthesis process such as microwave power and reaction time on the morphology and particle size of product was studied and optimized. X-ray diffraction and field emission-scanning electron microscopy were used to study and characterize the manufactured SrAl2O4 nanoparticles.
