Abstract
A method for the synthesis of mixed metal oxide crystalline powders comprises the steps of preparing a raw material mixture containing at least two different metal cations; adding a template material to the mixture and blending it therewith; initiating formation of a mixed metal oxide by calcination of the mixture and the template material, whereby particles of the mixed metal oxides are formed; and thereafter recovering the mixed metal oxide particles. Mixed metal oxide crystalline powders comprise a template material; and metal oxides which form pigment classes of material containing the template material, the pigment classes being selected from the group consisting of borate, garnet, olivine, phenacite, phosphate, priderite, pyrochlore, sphene, spinel and zircon, as well as perovskite crystal classes of material containing the template, all of which have a uniform particle morphology and particle size ranging between about 0.2 to 100.mu. with minimal comminution.
