Abstract

This research aims to synthesize ZrO2by combustion reaction in batches of 15 g of the product and to evaluate the calcination influence on the structural and morphological characteristic about synthesized sample. For the synthesis of ZrO2, the stoichiometry of phase was established in accordance with the propellants and explosives chemical concept, whereas the stoichiometric coefficient φ =1. After the synthesis, the sample as synthesized was calcined at 600 and 700°C and subsequently characterized by XRD, SEM, textural analysis (BET) and FTIR. The results have shown to the sample as synthesized and then calcined at 600°C the majority phase formation of orthorhombic zirconia with monoclinic phase dashes. The temperature increase to 700°C, has been transformed a part of the orthorhombic ZrO2to a monoclinic phase, contributing to a surface area reduction of the samples, showing irregular agglomerates in morphology, with adsorption/desorption isotherms type IV and mesoporosity characteristic.
