Molten salt synthesis of the lead titanate PbTiO3, investigation of the reactivity of various titanium and lead salts with molten alkali-metal nitrites

The reactivity of titanium salts (the oxychloride, the oxysulfate and the potassium fluorotitanate) and lead salts (the chloride, the nitrate and the sulfate) is investigated first separately, then simultaneously. A molten salt synthesis procedure of the lead titanate PbTiO3 is deduced from the results.
