Synthesis of powders of solid solutions between barium, strontium, and lead titanates and zirconates

Abstract

We have studied the crystallization conditions of single phase nanopowders of solid solutions between mixed oxides based on titanium(IV), zirconium(IV), and divalent metals (barium, strontium, and lead). Our results demonstrate that hydrous ammonium containing oxohydroxo precursors to titanium(IV) and zirconium(IV) have considerable potential for use in the synthesis of such materials.
