Abstract:

Spindle-like Y4.67(SiO4)3O apatite crystallites composed of numerous nanoparticles with a mean diameter of about 50 nm were synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method at 503 K for 12 h. To the best of our knowedge, the thermal properties of the spindle-like Y4.67(SiO4)3O apatite crystallites was firstly reported. Their phase composition, microstructure, formation mechanism were investigated. Results show that hydrothermal temperature greatly influences the crystal phase composition and the crystal morphology. In addition, the obtained Y4.67(SiO4)3O ceramics possess low thermal conductivity and a relatively high thermal expansion coefficient, which make them a promising candidate material for environmental/thermal barrier coatings.
