Abstract

Whenγ-Cu2(OH)3Cl is decomposed in air or nitrogen flow, different amounts of cuprous oxide are obtained as final product depending on both the heating rate and the ambient atmospheres. However, the temperature of formation of cuprous oxide only appears to depend on the partial pressure of oxygen. When thermal decomposition is carried out under dynamic vacuum in the X-ray high-temperature diffraction chamber, using a tantalum strip as the heating element, copper is obtained as final product at a comparatively low temperature.
