In this work, a miniature Y-jet mixer was used to enhance the mixing efficiency to prepare strontium carbonate (SrCO₃) microspheres by using the co - precipitation method. Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium (EDTA) was used as the additive to control particle morphology. The effects of EDTA concentration and reactant concentrations on the morphology and particle size distribution (PSD) were investigated. Experimental results demonstrate that orthorhombic-type spherical SrCO₃ particles were obtained by using EDTA as an additive. The molar concentration ratio of EDTA to strontium chloride (SrCl₂), RE, is the key factor affecting the particle morphology and size. When R_E was fixed, reactant concentrations had little effect on the morphology and size. The microspheres prepared under the optimum conditions were 2-3 μm with a very narrow PSD. Without EDTA, only rod-shaped particles were prepared and the particles tend to aggregate into bundles. The mechanism of how EDTA regulates the morphology is also discussed.
