Commercially purchased Ca(OH)(2) is mixed thoroughly with freshly prepared Bi(OH)(3) and Ti(OH)(4) in stoichiometrie ratio and heated at different temperatures ranging from 100 to 600 degrees C. The CBT phase found to be formed at 500 degrees C by the X-ray diffraction studies. This is the lowest temperature so far reported in the literature for the formation of CBT phase. The advantage of this method is that it also avoids the formation of calcium carbonate phase during synthesis. The phase contents and lattice parameters were studied by the powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. The average particle size and morphology were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technique.

A systematic study of the morphology, crystallinity and oxidation state of Fe using different characterization techniques. Such as transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was performed It reveals. that nanostructured alpha-Fe2O3 comprises bundles of nanorods with a rhombohedral crystalline Structure. The individual nanorod has 8-10 nm diameter and similar to 50 nm length. The as-prepared nanostructured alpha-Fe2O3 (sensor) gives selective response towards humidity. The sensor shows high sensitivity, fast linear response to change in the humidity with almost 100% reproducibility. The sensor works at room temperature and rejuvenates without heat treatment. The as-prepared nanostructured alpha-Fe2O3 appears to be a promising humidity sensing material with the potential for commercialization. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
