Abstract: | Nanoparticles of lanthanum-nickel, lanthanum-copper and barium-lead oxalates with the metal molar ratios of 1 1, 2 1 and 1 1, respectively, have been successfully synthesized in inverse microemulsions. These metal oxalate particles of about 20 nm diameter were readily calcined into single-phase perovskite-type LaNiO3, La2CuO4 and BaPbO3. The calcination temperatures for these metal oxalates were generally 100–250°C lower than those for the metal oxalates prepared by the conventional aqueous solution precipitation method. The substantial reduction in the calcination temperatures is attributed to the formation of uniform, near-spherical nanoparticles of the metal oxalate precursors obtained by the unique inverse microemulsion technique. |
