Abstract
Conditions for building up the composition and structure of mixed Pb, Zr, and Ti oxides in a microwave plasma-chemical process were studied. As starting substances Pb(C2H5)4, Ti(C4H9O)4, and a 80% Zr(C4H9O)4 solution in 2-propanol were used. To avoid stratification of the components the initial temperature of the flow should not exceed 1000°C. Under these conditions the crystallization of a complex structure requires a combination of a plasma-chemical synthesis with subsequent thermal treatment of the resulting powders. After the thermal treatment an average particle size of lead zirconate-titanate nanopowder was 120 nm.
