Abstract
Particulate ammonium rare earth double oxalate crystals, homogeneous in particle size and having a narrow particle size distribution and readily converted into rare earth oxide particles by simple calcination, e.g., yttrium oxide particles, are prepared by (a) intimately admixing, in an aqueous medium, (i) at least one precursor compound adapted to liberate oxalate ions in aqueous solution with (ii) at least one water-soluble rare earth compound and (iii) at least one ammonium salt, (b) separating the double oxalate precipitate thus formed, and (c), optionally, washing and drying such double oxalate precipitate.
