The synthesis temperature of Bi4Ti3O12 platelets was decreased to 650℃ from 900-1100℃. The phase compositions and crystalline morphology of Bi4Ti3O12 platelets were investigated by XRD and SEM. The experimental results indicate that Bi4Ti3O12 platelets containing tetragonal and orthorhombic phase with the size of 1-3μm can be synthesized at 650℃ for 2 h, and the orthorhombic phase becomes the dominant phase at 750℃ for 5 h. The size and proportion of Bi4Ti3O12 platelets increase with the increment of the calcining temperature and holding time. The proportion of platelets increases to about ninety percent, and the platelets grow up to about 3-10μm at 750℃ for 5 h from 1-2μm at 650℃ for 2 h. This technical route provides a new low-temperature molten salt system for preparing platelets by molten salt methods.展开更多
