Abstract: | SrO doped zirconia (20%) was synthesized by n-butanol soft-template method using both NaOH and ammonia solution as precipitants. The high-temperature phase stability was investigated following further heat treatment at 1000°C for 2 h. XRD and Raman spectra were used to characterize the crystal form of zirconia. In addition, TEM was used to characterize the dispersibility of SrO doped zirconia. The results indicated that the concentration of OH? introduced into the ZrO2 lattice was the main factor controlling the crystal form of nanosized zirconia. The NaOH solution precipitant could improve the dispersibility of SrO doped t-ZrO2, and could also prevent the phase transformation of zirconia from t-ZrO2 to m-ZrO2 effectively. |
