Description

Magnesium-stabilized zirconia have been synthesized by a chemical route. The aim of this work is to obtain powders with suitable chemical and physical properties to be used as ceramic membranes for nanofiltration. The coprecipitation technique with an azeotropic distillation step has been employed for this purpose. Several powder characterization techniques have been utilized. The main results show that nanosized powders with high a degree of purity, high chemical homogeneity and elevated reactivity have been obtained. (orig.)
