Resumo: | The current work assesses the impact of structural differences between stable and metastable ZrO2 precursors on the mechanochemical preparation of BaZrO3. Monoclinic (m-ZrO2) and tetragonal (t-ZrO2) zirconia polymorphs were prepared without stabilizing additives by slow alkaline precipitation. High-energy milling of the individual ZrO2 precursors induced different partial transformations in each case. The as-synthesized m-ZrO2 powders showed partial conversion to the tetragonal polymorph on mechanical activation, reaching about 10% t-ZrO2 after 420 min accompanied by increases in strain. In contrast, the as synthesized t-ZrO2 powders underwent the inverse transformation to the monoclinic phase, producing about 50% m-ZrO2 after 120 min with the liberation of strain. The t-ZrO2 precursor was shown to exhibit the higher reactivity with barium peroxide, yielding significantly earlier formation of barium zirconate under room-temperature mechanosynthesis. The progress of the mechanochemical formation of BaZrO3 has been discussed with respect to the differing behaviour of the ZrO2 precursors upon mechanical activation and associated thermodynamic perspectives. |
