Abstract The ultrasound (US) assisted one pot method has used to synthesize CuO nanoparticles. The fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
(FTIR) spectrum shows a characteristic peak of metal–oxygen bond at 535 cm−1, which confirms the CuO formation. The high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) images of the synthesized
nano-CuO confirms the size of nanorods with the length of approximately 25–30 nm, and its breadth is less than one nanometer.
X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of CuO can be readily assigned to those of crystalline CuO, indicating the formation of single-phase
CuO with monoclinic structure. The synthesized nano-CuO is mixed with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) to prepare the PVA/CuO nanocomposite
to improve the thermal stability of PVA. Their physico-chemical properties are examined by means of FTIR, XRD, differential
scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, HRTEM, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) techniques.
