Abstract

Homogeneous BaTiO₃ fine powder has been synthesized at (80°C) by using three different chemical methods using the roots TiCl₄, BaCl₂ and NaOH or Oxalic acid. The resultant powders were characterized using x-ray diffraction (XRD) to estimate the crystal structure, lattice parameters and the crystallite size to investigate the favor method in producing BaTiO₃ fine powder. The criteria that was dependent on considering the favor method that was given better results of XRD and demand a least time in preparation which tend to consume a lowest energy.
