N2 - Acicular particles of KSr2Nb5O15, Sr 0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6, and SrNb 2O6 were synthesized in the SrO-BaO-Nb2O 5 system, using KCl or SrCl2·6H2O salts. In the SrCl2·6H2O + Nb2O5 system, acicular SrNb2O6 particles were formed by a solid state reaction between the salt and Nb2O5. Large, irregularly shaped (Sr-rich) Sr2Nb2O7 particles formed with increasing reaction temperature and time. Small but finite solubility of SrO in the KCl + SrNb2O6 system favored the formation of acicular KSr2Nb5O15 and blade-like Sr2Nb2O7 particles (at higher temperatures). Uniformly sized, acicular KSr2Nb5O15 particles were easier to reproduce compared to the formation of acicular Sr 0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6 and SrNb 2O6 particles.
