Abstract
Ferroelastic rare earth tantalates (RETaO4) are widely researched as the next-generation thermal barrier coatings (TBCs), and RETaO4 powders are hugely significant for synthesizing their coatings. The current research used chemical co-precipitation within an automated experimental device to synthesize RETaO4 (RE = Nd, Sm, Gd, Ho, Er) powders. The device automatically monitored and controlled the solutions' pH, improving the chemical co-precipitation efficiency. The crystal structure and microstructure of the RETaO4 powders can be controlled by changing the annealing temperature, and the materials undergo an m'-m phase transition. The m'-RETaO4 powders exhibit nano-size grains, while m-RETaO4 powders evince micron-size grains, altered by the annealing temperatures. A simultaneous thermal analysis estimates the reversive ferroelastic tetragonal-monoclinic phase transition temperatures. Overall, this research focuses on the synthesis, crystal structures, microstructures, and phase transition of the fabricated RETaO4 powders.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Rare Earths reports studies on the 17 rare earth elements. It is a unique English-language learned journal that publishes works on various aspects of basic theory and applied science in the field of rare earths (RE). The journal accepts original high-quality original research papers and review articles with inventive content, and complete experimental data. It represents high academic standards and new progress in the RE field. Due to the advantage of abundant RE resources of China, the research on RE develops very actively, and papers on the latest progress in this field emerge every year. It is not only an important resource in which technicians publish and obtain their latest research results on RE, but also an important way of reflecting the updated progress in RE research field.
The Journal of Rare Earths covers all research and application of RE rare earths including spectroscopy, luminescence and phosphors, rare earth catalysis, magnetism and magnetic materials, advanced rare earth materials, RE chemistry & hydrometallurgy, RE metallography & pyrometallurgy, RE new materials, RE solid state physics & solid state chemistry, rare earth applications, RE analysis & test, RE geology & ore dressing, etc.
