description Barium titanate was synthesized using a solid state approach and an aqueous method. Solid state syntheses were used to prepare barium titanate pellets using a powder metallurgy method. Appropriate amounts of barium carbonate and titanium dioxide powder were mixed together in an agate mortar. Barium titanate pellets were mixed according to 5 different ratios of Ba/Ti which are 1:0.9, 1:0.95, 1:1, 1:1.05, 1:1.1. Pellets were sintered in air at a temperature 1400 °C.
