Spherical, ${\mu}m$-sized particles of barium titanyl oxalate were prepared by thermal decomposition of dimethyl oxalate in acidic barium and titanium solutions. Precipitation was carried out in the presence of several supporting anions. Spherical particles having a specific type of particle size distribution. i.e., unimodal or bimodal distribution, with mean size in the range of $0.2{\sim}3{\mu}m$, were formed depending on the supporting anions, oxalate ion generation rate and aging time. Particles of barium titanyl oxalate settled on the bottom of the beaker at the aging time of 120 min grew to the critical monosize of about $1.5{\sim}3{\mu}m$. XRD spectra and chemical analyses of barium titanate showed that barium titanyl oxalate with high qualities could be synthesized by choosing chloride ion as a supporting anion and increasing the reaction temperatures.

Barium titanyl oxalates (BTO) has been homogeneously prepared by thermal decomposition of dimethyl oxalate (DMO) in hydrochloric solution containing $Ba^{2+}$ and $Ti^{4+}$. Particles of BTO settled on the bottom of the beaker were collected at the aging time of 120 min using hydroxy propyl cellulose (HPC) as a dispersant. The reaction temperature, the concentration ratio of $[DMO]_0/([Ba^{2+}]_0+[Ti^{4+}]_0)$ and the existence of HPC were found to influence on morphologies of BTO, chemical yields and characteristics of barium titanates formed from their precursors.

Spherical, submicrometer particles of barium-titanyl oxalate were homogeneously precipitated by thermal decomposition of diethyl oxalate in acidic aqueous solutions. The rates of oxalate ion generations, determined by various combinations of temperature and initial concentration of diethyl oxalate had a very important effect on the particle size distribution. Monosized, bimodal, or broad unimodal powders were obtained under certain combinations of experimental variables.

Barium titanyl oxalate(BTO) was precipatated by utilizing the thermal decomposition of dimethyl oxalate in acidic aqueous solution having $BaCl_2$ and $TiCl_4$. Particle morphology of BTO was influeneced by the various experimental factors. i.e.. the faster rate to nucleation with higher temperature and the higher ratio of [DMO]/[$Ba^{2+}+Ti^{4+}$] was found to correspond to the faster rate of transformation of particle size distribution from unimodal to broad unimodal through bimodal. The BT powder obtained by calcination at $900^{\circ}C$ in air consists of larger particles than BT generated by general coprecipitation method and shows tetragonal symmetry. The stirring during reaction was also found to have much effect upon characteristics of BTO and BT.

Barium titanyl oxalate which is a precursor of barium titanate has been precipitated at pH 4~5 by a rapid addition of aqueous titanyl oxalate solution to artificial environmental water samples containing equivalent weight of $Ba^{2+}$ ions. Quantitative recoveries of $Cd^{2+}$ and $Pb^{2+}$ from the water samples has been confirmed and found to be usable as a possible method of preconcentration for their determination.

The optimal condition for minimal agglomeration of barium titanyl oxalate tetrahydrate, the precipitate on preparing barium titanate by oxalate process, was investigated. Burette-dropping and dual-nozzle-spraying were used as adding methods. pH of washing water for precipitates was changed, and sodium pyrophosphate solution, methanol, ethoanol, and acetone were used as washing agents for precipitates, as well as distilled water. Drying temperature was changed from $50^{\circ}C$ to $120^{\circ}C$. Spraying, methanol-washing, and drying at $60^{\circ}C$ showed the most dispersed distribution, Below $70^{\circ}C$, the crystalline phases were observed.

Factor analysis was applied to study the thermal decomposition of barium titanyl oxalate (BTO) which is used as the precursor of barium titanate. BTO was synthesized in $H_2O$ solvent and calcined at various temperatures. The X-ray diffraction patterns were obtained to make the data matrix of peak intensity vs. 2${\theta}$. Abstract factor analysis and target transformation factor analysis were applied to this data matrix. It has been found that the synthesized BTO consists of the crystals of $BaC_2O_4{\cdot}0.5H_2O\;and\;BaC_2O_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ as well as the amorphous solid of TiO-oxalate. The results also indicate that the BTO was transformed via $BaCO_3\;to\;BaTiO_3\;and\;Ba_2TiO_4$ during the thermal decomposition.

Spherical particles of barium titanyl oxalate(BTO) were homogeneously precipitated by thermal decomposition of dimethyl oxalate in hydrochloric mixture solutions of water and ethanol. The experimental parameters such as composition of the mixture solvents. the eoncentration of hydrochloric acid and reaction temperature had the paramount effect on the size of panicles collected from the bottom of the reaction vessel at the aging time of 120 min and the composition of BTO. Stoichiometric BTO powders were obtained under certain conditions as relatively low alcohol content in the mixtures, high chloride concentration and high temperature, Monosized, submicrometer, but titanium excess particles were obtained under certain reverse conditions.

Barium titanyl oxalate was synthesized by adding ethanol solution of oxalic acid to the mixed aqueous solution which contained barium or lanthanum radiotracers in addition to Ba(NO$_3)_2$ and TiO(NO$_3)_2$. The oxalate was finally converted to BaTiO$_3$ by calcination at 1000$^{\circ}$C in air. The chemical formula of the oxalate was confirmed to be BaTiO(CTEX>$_2O_4)_2{\cdot}4H_2O$ by the thermal analysis of the barium titanyl oxalate. When the mixture's molar ratio(Ba/Ti) was within a range of 0.950-1.05, the formation of stoichiometric Barium titanate was confirmed with the help of barium tracers. The homogeneity of lanthanum deposite in the final product was also confirmed through the behavior of lanthanum tracers. The results as well as those obtained by XRD and SEM have been explained on the basis of the fact that the reaction occurs on the molecular level in solution and the barium titanate is formed in crystals of single phase.
