        abstract = {Copper Titanium Oxide nanocomposite have significant attention due to their promising applications in photocatalysis, gas sensing and optoelectronic devices. In this work, Copper Titanium Oxide nanocomposites are successfully prepared by using a combined sol-gel and mechano-chemical ball milling approach. Initially CuO nanoparticles were prepared via sole-gel method using Cupric Chloride dihydrate as the copper pre cursor, Sodium Hydroxide as precipitate agent and acetic acid as complexing agent. The obtained wet CuO nanoparticles were mixed with Titanium Oxide microparticles in 3 different weight ratios of 1:3, 1:4, and 1:5. Each mixture is subjected to high energy planetary ball milling using a ball-to-powder weight ratio of 10:1 which allowed effective mechanochemical interaction between CuO and TiO2 and promoted the formation of Copper Titanium Oxide phases. Following ball milling process the obtained powder is calcinated at 450ºC for 8hours to enhance phase formation, improve crystallinity and reduce the particle size into the nanometer range.
The structural, morphological and compositional characteristics of the synthesized nanocomposites were investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy and Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. these techniques are employed to analyze phase formation, crystalline size, morphology, and elemental composition of the CuTiO3 nanocomposites.},
