【 摘 要 】

A simple coprecipitation technique has been used successfully for the preparation of pure, ultrafine, single phases of NaNbO₃ (NN) and NaTaO₃ (NT). An alcoholic solution of ammonium carbonate and ammonium hydroxide was used to precipitate Na⁺ and Nb⁵⁺ (or Ta⁵⁺) cations under basic conditions as carbonate and hydroxide, respectively. On heating at 700°C, these precursors produce respective products. For comparison, both NN and NT powders were also prepared by the traditional solid state method. The phase purity and lattice parameters were studied by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The particle size and morphology were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
