Pure and Cu:doped titanium dioxide nano-powder were prepared through a solid-state method. The dopant concentrations in atomic percentage were (0 - 7) wt% of samples Cu/Ti02. Structural properties of the samples were analyzed by XRD and revealed that all nano powders of titanium dioxide having polyc1ystalline nature. Physical and Morphological studies were conducted using scanning electronic microscope SEM to check the grain size and texture. The other properties of samples were examined using optical microscope, Lee's Disc, Shore D hardness instrnment, Fourier-transfonn infrared spectroscope (FTIR) and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Results showed that the thermal conductivity increased with the weight fraction of Cu element increasing then decreasing.References
