Abstract
- 0.675CaTiO 3 –0.325LaAlO 3 perovskite ceramics were prepared by a conventional sintering process through four reaction routes. The solid-state reaction mechanisms were investigated by X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric/differential scanning calorimetric analysis techniques. The results show that interactions occurred between mixtures of CaCO 3 and TiO 2 as well as La 2 O 3 and Al 2 O 3 , and they can influence the sintering behavior of the mixtures. Prior to the formation of solid solutions, the perovskite phases CaTiO 3 and LaAlO 3 were formed regardless of the combination of oxide powders used as reagents. From the powder mixtures which were calcined at 1200 °C, a Ca-rich Ca 9 Al 6 O 18 phase was present at 1400 °C if free La 2 O 3 and Al 2 O 3 used in the reaction mixtures. Ca-rich phases were also formed at higher temperature (1450 °C) if LaAlO 3 was present. The densities of the ceramics obtained by the four routes were different at specific sintering temperatures, and the highest density was obtained for the reaction route two. Results indicated that the preparation pathways had more influence on Q × f and temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency ( τ f ) than on the dielectric constants ( ε r ), and Q × f decreased and τ f increased rapidly when the secondary phase presented. Route four is considered as an optimal pathway for the preparation of 0.675CaTiO 3 –0.325LaAlO 3 ceramics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
