Abstract :
The dried nitrate-urea gels exhibit the combination of autoicatatric combustion behavior and ultrasonic, whichcan be used to synthesize the nanocatalyst ferrite powders. Cu and Ni Unites nanocatalyst powders sithcomposition of Caned], and NiFe204 were synthesized by a sol-gel auto catalnic combustion process. Themolar ratio between metal ions and urea was 11.2. The sob gel process was done at 80 °C. The nanopaniclecrystallines have been calcined at 800 °C.Combustion behavior and crystallite size of synthesized powders were investigated iyith the help of ScanningElectron Microscopy observation and X-ray diffraction technique. X- ray diffraction and Scanning ElectronMicroscopy were carried out for charactenzation of the powders. The grain size of the prepared femte powdersis found lobe in the range 30-35 mu_
