Abstract

Synthesis of mullite has been achieved at a low temperature of 600 °C by sol–gel technique in presence of nickel and cobalt ions. Samples were characterized by DTA, XRD, FESEM and FTIR spectroscopy. Mullite formation was found to depend on the concentration of the ions to a certain extent. Highly crystalline spherical mullite particles of dimension 35 nm were obtained at 0.02 M nickel or cobalt concentration.
