Abstract
In this work, the molten salt synthesis technique was applied to the synthesis of YAlO3 powder using LiCl, NaCl or KCl salt as the flux. YAlO3 powder was synthesized by reacting equimolar amounts of Y2O3 and Al2O3 powders in LiCl salt. The synthesis temperature for YAlO3 using LiCl salt was 1300 °C which is by about 500 °C lower than that in the conventional mixed-oxide method. The synthesized powders have been characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The effect of the salt type on the formation of YAlO3 has also been investigated.
