The Effect of Preparation Method and Calcination Temperature on the Crystallite Size and Surface Area of Perovskite-Type SrFeOx

Abdul Majid, Jim Tunney, Steve Argue, Mike Post

Abstract

We have investigated the synthesis of perovskite-type SrFeOx (2.5 ≤ x ≤ 3.0) using three preparative methods: sol-gel, mechanochemical processing and solid state reactions at high temperature of the corresponding oxides. The sample obtained after calcination of the gel from sol-gel method, contained the least amount of strontium carbonate impurity. The amount of strontium carbonate impurity decreased with the increase in calcination temper- ature. Perovskites obtained have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and nitrogen adsorption isotherms. Samples obtained from three methods have been compared with respect to calcination temperature, crystallite size and specific surface area.
