Using A1(NO3)3·9H2O, NH4Al(SO4)2·12H2O, Y(NO3)3as mother salts, and urea as precipitant, YAG nano-powders were synthesized by microwave homogeneous precipitation.

The composition, morphology, and phase transformation of precursor were analyzed by IR, XRD and TEM. The size distribution of YAG powders was characterized using laser diffraction method. The results show that sulfate ions influence the dispersion, composition and morphology of the YAG precursors. The addition of moderate sulfate ions can produce YAG powders with nano size and excellent dispersion at 1100℃.展开更多

FSEM, TEM, HRTEM, SAED, XRD, FTIR and Raman, ICP- AES, laser particle size analyzer, oxygen and nitrogen analyzer, carbon/sulfur determinator and TG-DSC were employed for the characterization of the morphology, structure, chemical composition and thermal stability of the as-synthesized ZrC samples. The as-synthesized samples demonstrated high purity, low oxygen content and evenly distributed ZrC nano-powders with an average particle size of 50nm. In addition, the effects of endothermic rate and the possible chemical reaction mechanism were also discussed.展开更多
