Influence of α-Bi2O3 chemical prehistory on the morphology of the obtaining basic bismuth succinate
The antibacterial drug, basic bismuth succinate of the composition Ñ2Í4(ÑÎÎBiO)2 is shown to obtain expediently by the interaction of bismuth oxide α-Bi2O3 with a succinic acid solution. Using the method of electron microscopy the influence of the chemical prehistory of obtaining the precursor, monoclinic modification of α-Bi2O3, on the morphological features of basic bismuth succinate synthesized from it has been investigated. The composition of Ñ2Í4(ÑÎÎBiO)2 was confirmed by the data of X-ray phase and chemical analyses. Based on the data of grain size analysis, the particle size of the obtained samples of basic bismuth succinate was estimated and the conditions for the synthesis of fine-crystalline C2H4(COOBiO)2, which is necessary for medical applications, were selected.
