Abstract: Homogeneous (ZrO2)0.92(Sc2O3)0.08 solid solution in fluorite cubic structure was prepared from the gels with altered molar ratios of citric acid (CA) to metal ions (M) and ethylene glycol (EG) via a polymerization route (Pechini method). Due to the enhanced chemical homogeneity (high level of mixing of metal ions and ligands) in the polymeric gels, Sc-doped zirconia can be crystallized at temperatures as low as 400 ℃. During the evolution from amorphous gel to the crystallized (ZrO2)0.92(Sc2O3)0.08 fine powder, the bonding nature between carboxylate groups and Zr/Sc cations changed: unidentate→bridging→ionic upon calcination. The molar ratios of CA/M (1~4) and CA/EG (0.2~4) were demonstrated to affect the thermal behavior of the gels and thus the particle properties of the derived nanoparticulate oxide powders (including particle size and surface area). The as-sintered sample compacted from the nanosized powders prepared by calcining the gel with the highest content of organics (CA/M=4 and CA/EG=0.2) exhibited the best sinterability and the highest oxide ion conductivity.
