Abstract

An important, somewhat novel procedure for the bulk synthesis of finely divided crystalline BaTiO3 powder has been studied and is applicable to the synthesis of other compounds in the BaO-TiO2 system as well. An aqueous solution of Ba(NO3)2, TiO(NO3)2, and alanine is spray dried. A combustion reaction occurs when heating the product to 300 °C. The reaction converts the spray-dried mixture to BaTiO3. This BaTiO3 powder and its sinterability have been characterized by thermal analysis, XRD, SEM, dielectric, and particle size measurements. The powder resulting from the thermal runaway reaction is finely divided and sinters more readily than the conventionally prepared high purity BaTiO3.
