Comprehensive Review on Synthesis of Abox Material and its Catalytic Applications

Abstract

Perovskites are materials with crystal structures comparable to perovskite (mineral). The backbone of perovskite is calcium titanium oxide (CaTiO₃). Perovskite oxides with the general formula ABO_x are highly important. In the general formula of perovskite ABX₃, A & B are cations, where X is an anion that binds with two cations. Perovskites have proven their versatility in catalysis, photovoltaics, solar cells, electrode conducting material, etc. Due to their unique structural properties and applications, they are compatible with elements having metallic approximately 90% of the periodic table.This review discusses the synthesis and catalytic application of perovskite oxides. There are five sections to this review: (a) a brief description of perovskite oxides, (b) the synthesis of perovskite oxides with various properties, (c) general characterization, (d) catalytic applications, and (e) conclusions and future perspectives.
