Abstract

Core-shell structured $BaTiO_3$ powders were produced via nano-coating of $Cr_2O_3$ and $Mn_2O_3$ to barium titanate powder system for MLCCs. From preliminary experiments, the optimal solution reaction condition employing using $KMnO_4$, $K_2Cr_2O_4$ and sulfur was established. Not only powders of $Cr_2O_3$ and $Mn_2O_3$ were synthesized but also their coating on $BaTiO_3$ powders were peformed under the same reaction condition. The coating was carried out in two ways, one-step and two-step, and its results were characterized for comparison. Conclusively speaking, two oxide additives were coated onto the $BaTiO_3$ powder surface with high quality and excellent reaction yield even under mild condition, which indicates that the contents as well as the properties of additive shell layer can be precisely controlled with rather ease.

본 연구에서는 MLCC용 $BaTiO_3$에 첨가되는 $Cr_2O_3$$Mn_2O_3$의 나노코팅에 의한 core-shell 구조의 $BaTiO_3$ 분말을 제조하였다. 예비실험을 통해서 $KMnO_4$$K_2Cr_2O_4$ 그리고 sulfur를 사용하는 최적의 액상반응조건이 확립되었다. 본 연구에서는 두 첨가제 분말을 합성하였고 동일한 반응조건으로 두 첨가제를 $BaTiO_3$ 분말표면에 코팅하였다. 코팅은 one-step과 two-step의 두 방법으로 구분하여 시행하였고 그 결과를 분석 비교하였다. 결론적으로 말해서, $Cr_2O_3$$Mn_2O_3$의 두 첨가제는 용이한 반응조건에서 높은 수율로 우수한 품질의 코팅막을 형성하므로써, 첨가제 함량과 코팅막 특성의 정밀한 조절이 용이함을 보여주었다.
