INFLUENCE OF BARIUM METAL IN ORGANIC CRYSTAL OF BCTU BY VARIOUS CHARACTERISATION STUDIES

Abstract

A pure transparent solid organic crystal of Barium chloride Thiourea Urea (BCTU) was obtained at room temperature by using distilled water following the method of slow evaporation technique. The optical property of the crystal was studied by UV-Vis spectral study. The functional groups were identified by FT-IR spectral analysis. The crystals structure was characterized by XRD analysis. The thermal stability of the crystal was evaluated by thermo gravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA). The microhardness also confirmed the stability of the crystal by the Vickers method.
