Alkaline-Earth Titanates. Some physical properties of representative alkaline-earth titanates ate Hsted in Table 15. The most important apphcations of these titanates are in the manufacture of electronic components (109). The most important member of the class is barium titanate, BaTi03, which owes its significance to its exceptionally high dielectric constant and its piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties. Further, because barium titanate easily forms solid solutions with strontium titanate, lead titanate, zirconium oxide, and tin oxide, the electrical properties can be modified within wide limits. Barium titanate may be made by, eg, cocalcination of barium carbonate and titanium dioxide at ca 1200°C. With the exception of Ba2Ti04, barium orthotitanate, titanates do not contain discrete TiO ions but ate mixed oxides. Ba2Ti04 has the P-K SO stmcture in which distorted tetrahedral TiO ions occur.

A large number of inorganic layer crystals such as micas, sodium silicates, niobate, uranate, vanadate, titanate, zirconium phosphate, graphitic acids, crystalline silicic acids, vanadium oxyhydrate, calcium phosphoric acid esters, and titanium disulfide develop alkyl crystals between their rigid crystal layers by ion exchange with, for example, alkyl ammonium salts and by intercalation inorganic... 

Zirconate coupling agents have a stracture very similar to that of titanates. Zirconium propionate is used as an adhesion promoter in printing ink formulations for polyolefins. Like the titanates, zirconate coupling agents are useful in improving the dispersion characteristics of fillers in polymer systems.

Dialkylaminoethyl acryhc esters are readily prepared by transesterification of the corresponding dialkylaminoethanol (102,103). Catalysts include strong acids and tetraalkyl titanates for higher alkyl esters and titanates, sodium phenoxides, magnesium alkoxides, and dialkyitin oxides, as well as titanium and zirconium chelates, for the preparation of functional esters. Because of loss of catalyst activity during the reaction, incremental or continuous additions may be required to maintain an adequate reaction rate. 

Flame-Retardant Treatments For Wool. Although wool is regarded as a naturally flame-resistant fiber, for certain appHcations, such as use in aircraft, it is necessary to meet more stringent requirements. The Zirpro process, developed for this purpose (122,123), is based on the exhaustion of negatively charged zirconium and titanium complexes on wool fiber under acidic conditions. Specific agents used for this purpose are potassium hexafluoro zirconate [16923-95-8] [16923-95-8] K ZrF, and potassium hexafluoro titanate [16919-27-0], K TiF. Various modifications of this process have been... 

Another important class of titanates that can be produced by hydrothermal synthesis processes are those in the lead zirconate—lead titanate (PZT) family. These piezoelectric materials are widely used in manufacture of ultrasonic transducers, sensors, and minia ture actuators. The electrical properties of these materials are derived from the formation of a homogeneous soHd solution of the oxide end members. The process consists of preparing a coprecipitated titanium—zirconium hydroxide gel. The gel reacts with lead oxide in water to form crystalline PZT particles having an average size of about 1 ]lni (Eig. 3b). A process has been developed at BatteUe (Columbus, Ohio) to the pilot-scale level (5-kg/h). 

Lead zirconate [12060-01 -4] PbZrO, mol wt 346.41, has two colorless crystal stmctures a cubic perovskite form above 230°C (Curie point) and a pseudotetragonal or orthorhombic form below 230°C. It is insoluble in water and aqueous alkaUes, but soluble in strong mineral acids. Lead zirconate is usually prepared by heating together the oxides of lead and zirconium in the proper proportion. It readily forms soHd solutions with other compounds with the ABO stmcture, such as barium zirconate or lead titanate. Mixed lead titanate-zirconates have particularly high piezoelectric properties. They are used in high power acoustic-radiating transducers, hydrophones, and specialty instmments (146). 

Various inorganic esters have been claimed as coupling agents for reinforced plastics, including aminobenzyl phosphonates, dicetylisopropylborate, alkoxy compounds of aluminum, zirconium and titanium, zircoaluminates, and numerous substituted titanates [1]. These metal alkoxides could function in a similar manner to the orthosilicates by reacting with hydroxylated substrates. Like the simple orthosilicates such as tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), it is less evident how an-... 

Outside of catalyst preparation, reaction of sucrose with metal nitrates has been used to prepare nanocomposite mixed oxide materials. Wu et al. [46] reported the synthesis of Mg0-Al203 and Y203-Zr02 mixed oxides by reaction of nitrate precursors with sucrose. The resulting powders had smaller particles than those prepared without sucrose. Das [47] used a similar method in the presence of poly vinylalcohol to produce nanocrystalline lead zirconium titanate and metal ferrierites (MFe204, M = Co, Ni, or Zn). The materials prepared using sucrose had smaller crystallites than those made without. Both authors observed an exothermic decomposition of the precursors during calcination. 

The alcohol exchange reaction was shown above in equation (2). The reactive alkoxy group (OR) is replaced by an alkoxy group that has less hydrolysis sensitivity (OR ). A representative example here is the use of reagents such as zirconium n-propoxide and titanium /-propoxide, both of which possess polar bonds, for the production of lead zirconate titanate films. Commonly in these processes, R OH is 2-methoxyethanol (CH3OCH2CH2OH), which is generally present as a bidentate ligand.35... 

Tetraalkyl titanates are the most commonly used catalysts for PBT polymerization [8], The varieties of titanates include tetraisopropyl titanate (TPT), tetrabutyl titanate (TBT) and tetra(2-ethylhexyl) titanate (TOT). Titanates effectively speed the reaction rate with few detrimental effects on the resin. Alkoxy zirconium and tin compounds, as well as other metal alkoxides, may also be used in PBT polymerization. 

In this artide, we review the new field of combinatorial materials science. We describe in detail our particular materials exploration approach that we call the continuous compositional spread (CCS) approach. This CCS approach allows the synthesis and characterization of a major fraction of a ternary or pseudo-ternary phase spread in about 24 hours. We compare the CCS approach with other schemes for rapid materials investigations. We also provide an example of the successful application of the CCS approach in the discovery of a new high dielectric constant thin-film material, an amorphous zirconium tin titanate, aZTT. New combinatorial approaches to materials research can allow us to do studies that would not have been possible using conventional techniques. 

A wide array of ferroelectric, piezoelectric and pyroelectric materials have titanium, zirconium and zinc metal cations as part of their elemental composition Many electrical materials based on titanium oxide (titanates) and zirconium oxide (zirconates) are known to have structures based on perovskite-type oxide lattices Barium titanate, BaTiOs and a diverse compositional range of PZT materials (lead zirconate titanates, Pb Zr Tij-yOs) and PLZT materials (lead lanthanum zirconate titanates, PbxLai-xZryTii-yOs) are among these perovskite-type electrical materials. 

Calvert et al. [12] studied the interfacial coupling of alkoxy titanium and zirconium tricarboxyls with metal oxides. They showed that isopropoxytitanium and zirconium tristearates interact with silica and alumina by exclusive loss of isopropanol, and that the titanate and zirconate were resistant to desorption by treatment with hot water. 

Further versatility of this approach has been realized with contrasting Lewis acid promoted additions of silyl ketene acetals, (191) to (194), to ethyl propynoate (Scheme 42). In fact, the tandem 1,4-conjugate addition-electrophile trapping protocol is feasible when titanium(IV) tetrachloride is employed. In situ functionalization of the intermediate titanate enoate (259), with select electrophiles, affords a-substituted enoates (260) to (262). On the other hand, the zinc iodide and zirconium(IV) tetrachloride protocols afford directly -y-alkoxycarbonyl-a-trimethylsilylenoates (263) and [2 + 2] adducts (264), respectively.100... 

Thermolysis of tin and lead alkoxozirconates leads to the formation of metals. The mass-spectral data indicate the presence ofbarium and aluminium derivatives in the gas phase, but no preparative data are accessible for them. The major application of zirconium and hafnium alkoxides lies now in the sol-gel technology of zirconate-titanate and solid solutions Zr02-Y203 (see Section 10.3), Except in the synthesis of oxide materials, the alkoxides of zirconium and hafnium are traditionally used in the polymer chemistry, where they are applied as the components in catalysts [1278, 1269] and as additives to polymers, improving their characteristics [825, 1403] and so on. Already in 1930s Meerwein has proposed the use of zirconium alkoxides for the reduction of aldehydes intoprimary alcohols (Meerwein-Schmidt reaction) [1420],...
