Abstract
Strontium bismuth tantalate is usually synthesized by solid state reaction of component oxide mixtures at temperatures above 1000°C. This report shows that prior mechanochemical activation in a high energy ball mill reduces the synthesis temperature to about 650°C. During milling, the minor constituent raw materials appear to dissolve in the major constituent Bi2O3. © 2005 Acta Materialia Inc.
