In the synthesis process of mullite, pulp was used as a ligand and a template. The synthesized powders were calcined at the temperatures of 900°C, 1000°C, 1100°C, 1200°C, and 1250°C for 60 minutes. The calcined powders were characterized using XRD, SEM and TEM. Mullitization process initiated at 1100°C and at a higher temperature of 1200°C, mullite was completely formed. X-ray analysis identifies that mullite with crystals planes (120) (210) has crystals 17.0 nm in sizes. SEM micrograph at 1200°C shows the microstructures of mullite powders like longitudinal or relief chunk structures similar with the pulp structure. TEM result at 1200°C shows that the mullite crystallite particles are 14-50 nm in diameter.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Calcined powder,Higher temperatures,Mullitization,Nano mullite,Precursor,SEM and TEM,SEM micrographs,Synthesis,Synthesis process,Synthesis route,Synthesized powder,TEM,XRD[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Calcination,Nano mullite,Precursor,Pulp,Synthesis[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
