| Abstract: | A novel method for zirconium oxide crystal synthesis from an aqueous solution at ordinary temperature and pressure has been discovered. Boric acid was added to a sodium hexafluorozirconate solution, fluoride ion was consumed by the formation of BF?4 complex ion, then the hexafluorozirconate ion was hydrolyzed to zirconium oxide in order to increase the amount of fluoride ion. The formation of zirconium oxide crystal was confirmed by clear X-ray diffraction peaks. This method is promising for preparing zirconium oxide films in various applications |
