Box 74715-117, Islamic Republic of Iran Journal Article 2016 09 27 Two nano-sized mixed-ligand Cd (II) coordination polymers; [Cd (4,4' -bpy) (C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>4</sub>O<sub>4</sub>)].1/4 H<sub>2</sub>O (1) and[Cd(bpy)<sub>1.5</sub> (NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>].3H<sub>2</sub>O (2) (bpy=bipiridine) were synthesized by a sonochemical method and characterized by elemental analyses, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The crystallinity of these compounds were studied by Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). CdO nanostructures were obtained by direct calcinations of nano polymers at 400 <sup>o</sup>C. The cadmium (II) oxidenano-particles were characterized by Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
