Abstract
Nano particle size of tialite (aluminium titanate) was prepared through res in formation of 1:2:2 urea, formaldehyde and ethylene glycol, respectively. Up to 1.5 mol Al2TiO5 equivalent to (3 mol of AlCl3: 1.5 mol TiCl3) can be substituted in the structure of the resin. The results of FTIR indicate th at aluminium occupies tetrahedral and octahedral sites. While the titanium is octahedrally coordinated in the resin structure. Both elements Al3+ and Ti4+ were homogeneously distributed in the powders prepared as revealed by EDAX. Particle size of the Tialite produced in the fired bodies ranged betw een 1 and 1.4 mu m.
