Synthesis, Growth and Characterization of L-Lysine Nickel Maleate Crystal

A good quality, single crystal L-Lysine Nickel Maleate (L-LNM) has been grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique. The crystalline nature of the grown crystal has been analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction analysis. The presence of elements in the compound has been identified by EDAX analysis. FTIR spectrum confirms the presence of functional groups in the grown crystal. The optical nature of the grown crystal has been studied by UV-Visible spectrum. The thermal stability and decomposition stages of the grown crystal were studied by TG-DTA analysis.
