Supercritical fluids have received considerable attention as solvents for the synthesis of ceramic or similar materials. One method applies thermal decomposition of precursors in a supercritical fluid, which is at the end of the reaction depressurized and removed from the system. After removal of the solvent, obtained inorganic material is typically in the form of micron or submicron particles. The second method uses supercritical fluid as a solvent and a reactant. In this case, the typical supercritical fluid is water, and the process is called hydrothermal synthesis. Inorganic solids obtained by the decomposition in the supercritical fluid or by the synthesis using supercritical reactant, are hsted in Tables 24.4 and Table 24.5, respectively. As it can be seen from the presented data different morphologies can be obtained on the micrometer or nanometer scale.
