Abstract: Sn0.5Ti0.5O2 solid solution was prepared by sol-gel method. The structure and thermal stability of the Sn0.5Ti0.5O2 solid solution were investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD), differential thermal analysis(DTA) and infrared spectra(IR) methods. The thermal-stability of the solid solution Sn0.5Ti0.5O2 depends on the original water bath temperature. In the XRD patterns, the phase separation phenomenon was observed in the gel samples prepared over a 40℃ water bath and sintered at 1 000℃ and the Sn-rich and Ti-rich phases appeared. The solid solution synthesized at 60℃ water bath temperatures had a good thermal-stability after being sintered at 1 000℃ and the phase separation phenomenon appeared after being sintered at 1200℃. But the phase separation phenomenon wasn′t observed in the 80℃ gel samples prepared over a 80℃ water bath and sintered at 1 200℃ and the only existent phase was still ascribed to the solid solution Sn0.5Ti0.5O2. Furthermore, the DTA curves of three samples synthesized at different water bath temperatures show that the sample prepared over a 40℃ water bath has the worst thermal-stability and the sample prepared over a 80℃ water bath has the best thermal-stability.
