title: A simple route to synthesis of SrCO3 with olive-like and flower-like morphologies.
abstract: SrCO3 with an olive-like or flower-like morphology has been successfully synthesized by a microwave-assisted method using Sr(NO3)2 and (NH4)2CO3 in ethylene glycol (EG) or water. The solvent plays an important role in the size and morphology of SrCO3. The products were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). This method is simple, fast, low-cost, and suitable for large-scale production.
