Comparison of Characteristics of BaTiO3 Prepared by Different Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Barium titanate powder has been prepared using sol-gel auto-ignition synthesis process and was compared with two commercial high purity BaTiO3 powders prepared by precipitation from oxalate precursor and by hydrothermal synthesis. Characterization by x-ray fluorescence, XRD, field emission scanning electron microscopy, SEM and BET revealed significant difference, particularly in particle size and agglomerate structure, resulting in different microstructure and dielectric property. The sol-gel auto-ignition synthesis process yielded weakly agglomerated powder with average particle size of 50 nm. This property is favorable for sintering and dielectric property.
