Abstract
Abstract Basic zinc compound flake-like crystalline material suited for use in crystal-oriented electronic devices and method for preparation thereof comprising the steps of preparing a solution including at least zinc ions and sulfate ions, and causing precipitation of zinc sulfate crystals by causing a reaction of components of said solution with alkali when said solution is at a temperature in the range 50 DEG to 100 DEG C. and has a pH value of in the range 4 to 6.5.
