Product Description
Basic Information
- Chemical Name: Barium Titanate
- Molecular Formula: BaTiO3
- Molecular Weight: 233.19 g/mol
- CAS Registry Number: 12047-27-7
Physical and Chemical Properties
- Appearance: White or off-white crystalline powder; transparent in single-crystal form.
- Melting Point: ~1,625 °C (2,957 °F)
- Density: 6.02 g/cm³ at 25 °C
- Solubility:
- Insoluble in water; slightly soluble in acids (reacts to form barium and titanium salts).
- Electrical Properties:
- Ferroelectric Material: Exhibits spontaneous polarization below the Curie temperature (TC=120 °C), with switchable polarization under an electric field.
- High Dielectric Constant: ε_r ~ 1,000-10,000 near TC, making it ideal for capacitors.
- Phase Transitions:
- Above 120 °C: Cubic (paraelectric) phase.
- Below 120 °C: Tetragonal (ferroelectric) phase, with Ti4 ions displaced from the center of the oxygen octahedron.
- Further phase transitions at lower temperatures: Orthorhombic (−90 °C) and rhombohedral (−200 °C).
Applications
- Electronic Components:
- Capacitors: High-capacitance multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) for consumer electronics (phones, laptops) and automotive systems.
- Piezoelectric Devices: Transducers for ultrasonic sensors, sonar, and actuators (e.g., in fuel injectors).
- Thermistors: Negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors for temperature sensing.
- Functional Materials:
- Ferroelectric Memories (FeRAM): Non-volatile memory with fast switching speeds.
- Pyroelectric Detectors: Sensitive to infrared radiation for thermal imaging and motion sensors.
- Piezoelectric Transformers: Compact power converters in medical devices and aerospace.
- Ceramic Composites:
- Reinforced ceramics for high-temperature applications (e.g., spark plug insulators) and dielectric substrates in circuit boards.
Safety and Handling
- Health Hazards:
- Inhalation of dust may irritate the respiratory tract; prolonged exposure could cause pneumoconiosis.
- Low toxicity (oral LD50 in rats: > 5,000 mg/kg), but avoid skin/eye contact.
- Environmental Risks:
- Insoluble in water, so minimal risk of water contamination; however, barium ions (if released) are toxic to aquatic life.
- Handling Precautions:
- Use dust masks and gloves when handling powders; store in dry, sealed containers.
- Avoid high-temperature decomposition, which may release trace barium oxide fumes.
