Abstract

$K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$ in the $K_2O-Li_2O-Al_2O_3$ ternary system was synthesized using aluminum nitrate solution as a starting material. For the synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$, raw materials with chemical composition of $0.84K_2O{\cdot}0.082Li_2O{\cdot}5.2Al_2O_3$ were mixed in solution state. The effects of dispersant and solution-pH were investigated in minimizing the particle size and on the synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$. Ethanol was used for a dispersant, and $NH_4OH$ solution and nitric acid were added for pH adjustment. The solution pH was increased from 1.0 to 7.5 by 0.5 increments. Each sample was calcined at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 2 h and characterized with X-ray diffraction and particle size analyzer. The pH of solution significantly effected both particle size and phase formation, while the addition of ethanol only effected particle size. The synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$ was favored by addition of nitric acid (for pH control).

Aluminum nitrate 수용액을 원료로 사용하여 $K_2O-Li_2O-Al_2O_3$ 3성분계로부터 $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$를 합성하였다. 순수한 $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$의 합성을 위하여 원료물질은 $0.84K_2O{\cdot}0.082Li_2O{\cdot}5.2Al_2O_3$의 조성으로 액상상태에서 혼합되었다. 입자크기를 최소화하고 순수한 $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$를 합성하는데 있어서 분산첨가제와 용액의 pH의 영향을 조사하였다. 분산첨가제로써 에탄올을 0.0~4.0 M 첨가하였고 용액의 pH는 $NH_4OH$ 수용액과 $HNO_3$를 이용하여 조절하였다. 시료는 pH 1.0에서 7.5까지 0.5 간격으로 수집하였다. 각 시료들은 $1200^{\circ}C$에서 2 h 동안 하소한 후 XRD와 PSA 분석을 하였다. 용액의 pH는 입자크기와 상형성에 모두 중요한 영향을 미친 반면, 에탄올의 첨가는 입자크기에만 영향을 주었다. pH 조절에 $HNO_3$를 사용하였을 경우, $HNO_3$를 사용하지 않았을 때 보다 순수한 $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$ 상을 합성하는데 유리함을 알 수 있었다.
