Highly pure and well-dispersed yttria nanocrystalline powders were synthesized with a modified coprecipitation method that uses mixed ammonium hydroxide-carbonate solution as the precipitant and poly acrylic acid (PAA) as the dispersant. Comparing with the yttria powders synthesized using the same r...
