Abstract

Abstract Mono-sized barium titanate powders which have high density and substantially pure stoichiometry are provided. The powders can be produced by reacting barium hydroxide with titanium dioxide in a protic solvent at a temperature of at least 100° C. for a period of at least 48 hours, or by reacting barium hydroxide with a titanium alkoxide in a protic solvent at a temperature of about the boiling point of the alkyl alcohol corresponding to the alkoxide for a period of at least about 240 hours.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 58 words
A method of producing BaTiO 3 powders comprising reacting barium hydroxide with titania having a particle size not greater than 0.1 micron, said reaction being conducted in a protic solvent at a temperature of at least 100° C. for a period of at least 48 hours to produce BaTiO 3 having a density of at least 5.7 g/cc.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 58 words
A method of producing BaTiO 3 powders comprising reacting barium hydroxide with titania having a particle size not greater than 0.1 micron, said reaction being conducted in a protic solvent at a temperature of at least 100° C. for a period of at least 48 hours to produce BaTiO 3 having a density of at least 5.7 g/cc.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the protic solvent is water.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the titania is at least 75% by weight anatase titania.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the reaction temperature is 100°-125° C.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 56 words
A method of producing BaTiO 3 powder comprising reacting barium hydroxide with a titanium alkoxide in a protic solvent at a temperature of about the normal boiling temperature of the alcohol corresponding to the alkoxide for a period of at least about 240 hours to produce BaTiO 3 having a density of at least 5.7 g/cc.
