Abstract

Pure and reactive barium titanate (BaTiO3) and barium orthotitanate (Ba2TiO4) powders have been synthesized by an ethylene glycol (EG), polymerizationcomplexation route. The EG content affected the crystallization behavior and powder morphology. The BaTiO3powder, which had a particle size of approximately 100 nm, crystallized from amorphous to tetragonal phase on calcining at 700 °C for 1 h. Ball-milled BaTiO3 powder sintered to 97% relative density at 1200 °C after 2 h, with a grain size of approximately 200 nm. Ba2TiO4 powder required longer holding times or higher temperatures to be crystallized from the amorphous phase than did BaTiO3. In Ba2TiO4, the phase transformation between low-temperature monoclinic symmetry to high-temperature orthorhombic symmetry was observed by dilatometry and differential scanning calorimetry. A volume decrease of ∼0.5% accompanied the monoclinic-to-orthorhombic transformation on heating. The high-temperature orthorhombic phase could be retained down to room temperature y the addition of at least 6 wt% magnesia (MgO) stabilizer.
