Abstract
Preliminary examinations regarding formation of bismuth titanates in a part of Bi2O3—TiO2 system rich with TiO2 have been carried out. Bismuth titanates have been synthesized from mixtures of Bi2O3 and TiO2 (anatase) by the conventional solid-state method at the temperatures ranged from 1273 to 1473 K. Differential thermal analysis (DTA), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have been used to study the formation of bismuth titanates. The following compounds have been achieved: Bi4Ti3O12, Bi2Ti2O7 and Bi2Ti4O11. Existence of controversial bismuth titanate of formula Bi2Ti3O9 in the Bi2O3—TiO2 system has not been confirmed.
