Abstract:
In present research we focused on the synthesis and investigation of properties of
double strontium(II) zinc(II) phosphate — SrZnP2O7. Different synthesis
approaches, including solid state reaction and coprecipitation, as well as different
experimental conditions (initial reagents and homogenisation route) were used for
the preparation of SrZnP2O7. The reaction route between the initial reagents was
followed using DTA/TG and XRD methods. The obtained powders were
characterised by IR spectroscopy and their thermal stability was followed by
heating microscopy. Focusing on pigmentary application, specific properties of
the samples were evaluated such as particle size distribution, colour parameters,
and also preliminary anticorrosion tests were performed.
