Abstract

The chemical precipitation of nanocrystalline ZnS from aqueous alkaline solutions containing zinc ethylenediamine complex salt Zn(En)2+ and thiocarbonic acid diamide N2H4CS was studied in the course of time in terms of formal chemical kinetics. The ZnS formation rate was found to depend on the concentration of precipitation agent (N2H4CS) and to decrease with increasing the ligand (ethylenediamine) concentration, whereas the pH dependence is less pronounced. The size of resulting ZnS nanoparticles does not exceed 5 nm, and their crystal structure was identified as a random close packed structure.
