Synthesis and characterization of NaSbO3 compound

In this study we sintered NaSbO3 compound at 860 °C from Na2CO3 and Sb2O3, detailed structural and microstructural of the compound were studied. Refinement of the X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns by method of Rietveld indicate that the crystal structure of NaSbO3 belongs to the trigonal system with hexagonal symmetry, space group R3‾(No.148), lattice parameters a = 5.2944(4) Å, c = 15.9469(8) Å and volume V = 387.124(0) ų with Z = 6. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis displayed that sintered samples at temperatures lower than 750 °C have a favorable effect on the homogeneity of the samples.
