Controlled mechanochemical synthesis and properties of a selected perovskite-type electroceramics

This paper presents mechanochemical synthesis as an alternative to the traditional high-temperature synthesis of advanced electrotechnical ceramic materials with a perovskite-type structure. The reaction conditions for high-energy ball milling, e.g. reaction environment, energy of milling and additives to BaTiO3 such as metallic iron or zirconia from the exfoliation of the milling vessel and grinding media are discussed.
