Abstract

The zeta potential and the rheological behavior of aqueous suspensions of a commercial nanosized BaTiO3 powder were studied. The influence of the volume fraction of solids, the kind and concentration of dispersant, the homogenization technique, and times were investigated. Because the as-received powder contained ∼5 wt% organics, the powder was calcined to 350°C/0.5 h. After calcination, a good dispersion was achieved for suspensions with up to 80 wt% solids using a polyacrylic-based dispersant combined with tetramethylammonium hydroxide and 10 min of ultrasound. Green bodies obtained by slip casting had relatively low densities (2.6 g/cm3, 43% TD), but homogeneous, agglomerate-free microstructures.
