Designing a glass nanoshell on barium titanium trioxide to suppress nanocrystal growth during sintering for fine-grain dielectric ceramics by Jia Yu, Qi Jiang, Qingchao Jia, Liangzhu Zhang, Wenchun Chiu, Huidan Zeng

“…However, BT70, with a larger specific surface area, higher reactivity, and lower crystallinity, was more prone to hydrolyze in the sol-gel process, leading to the formation of a new phase after sintering, Ba2TiSi2O8, which adversely affected both the sintering behavior and dielectric properties. On the other hand, BT200 exhibited lower possibility to hydrolyze in the sol-gel process, resulting in single-phase ceramics after sintering. …”
