Crystallization of Spherical Dielectric Oxide Particles in a Melting-Spheroidization Process Using Chemical Flame

Article Preview

Abstract:

BaNd2Ti4O12 dielectric oxide particles were spheroidized by melting them with a LPG-O2 flame to improve packing and fluidity of the powder. Changes in the particle morphology, structure and crystallinity during the process were investigated. It is revealed that most of the as-melted particles are dense, spherical and amorphous with smooth surfaces, which crystallize in the annealing process to form polycrystalline spherical particles with uneven surfaces. Annealing at above 1100°C is necessary for the spheroidized powder to recover its crystallinity and dielectric properties.
