Bismuth titanate based nanopowders with the different content of La or Ce were synthesized by the modified sol-gel method. After calcination at 600°C, in addition to Aurivillius layered structure, a small quantity of cubic pyrochlore phase was detected in the La modified powders, while this second phase was much more pronounced in the Ce substituted powders. In fact, as the powder with the highest amount of Ce (Bi3CeTi3O12) has the pure pyrochlore phase it seems that the presence of Ce stabilizes the formation of this phase. This different infl uence of cerium and lanthanum could be explained by the incorporation of their ions on the different sites in the titanate structure. Bismuth titanate based ceramics, sintered at 1050°C/2h, had densities above 93% of theoretical density and characteristic plate-like grain morphology. Small quantity of cubic pyrochlore phase was detected only in the Ce modifi ed bismuth titanate ceramics. On the other hand, lanthanum addition caused formation of smaller grain size with pronounced plate-like morphology. |
