Abstract
We investigated the feasibility of synthesizing nanopowders containing indium and dysprosium oxides by the glycine-nitrate method. It was found that the glycine-nitrate method significantly reduces the content of the indium component in the resulting mixture of indium and dysprosium oxides. In this case, intensive absorption of carbon dioxide from the air by the formed particles induces formation of amorphous carbonaceous compounds, which decompose only under high-temperature treatment (900 °C). This prevents compaction of powders synthesized by the glycine-nitrate method. Comparison of the characteristics of powders containing indium oxides and dysprosium, synthesized by the glycine-nitrate method and by the method of co-precipitation of indium and dysprosium hydroxides from chloride solutions, showed the advantage of the co-precipitation method in the pressing of powders.
