ZnO is most widely and most attractive element in today’s research. ZnO powder is not available naturally. The ZnO powder was prepared by different methods. Here in this paper the preparation of powder was discussed. The powder was prepared by high temperature sol gel combustion method. Here in this study selected temperature was 500 0C ± 10 0C. to form the pure ZnO powder the synthesized powder was sintered at 6500C ± 10 0C. After sintering the white ZnO powder was formed with amorous in nature.This method was easy and high yield. The powder was characterized by using XRD and SEM. From XRD grain size was calculated. Using SEM the particle size, specific surface area, surface roughness and the surface morphology was studied.
