Often this metal is supported on porous oxides having high thermal stability. Perovskite - type o xides (ABO 3 ) have good metal dispersion , high thermal and chemical s tability, it are used in oxidative processes . T his study aimed to synthesize and characterize barium ruthenate (BaRuO 3 ) with perovskite - type structure. For this, two methods for BaRuO 3 synthesis have been used , combined complexation EDTA - Citrate and oxalat e coprecipitation. BaRuO 3 produced underwent heat treatment at 950 ° C for 5, 10 and 15 hours. The precursor was used in thermogravimetric analysis (TG) to evaluate thermal stability , ceramic powders obtained were characterized by X - ray diffraction (XRD) t o identify the phases, structural analysis and assessment of the average size of crystallites; scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to observe the morphology; energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) to determine local chemical composition. It was observed that BaRuO 3 for EDTA - citrate methodology presented rhombohedral structure with space group R - 3mH ( ICSD : 10253) heterogeneous morphology with a broad distribution and crystal size. thereby , the oxide synthesized by oxalate coprecipitation method presented two po lymorphs, with hexagonal structure with space group P63/ mmc ( ICSD : 84652) and a rhombohedral ( ICSD : 10253) with homogeneous morphology and crystals distribution control.porAcesso AbertoBaRuO3PerovskitaCatalisadorComplexação combinada EDTA - CitratoCoprecipitação em meio oxalatomasterThesisCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA DE MATERIAIS E METALURGICA
