Abstract
Li1.5Al0.5Ti1.5(PO4)3 (LATP) powders were prepared from different NOx-free precursors using an aqueous-based solution-assisted solid-state reaction (SA-SSR). The sintering behavior, phase formation, microstructure and ionic conductivity of the powders were explored as a function of sintering temperature. The powders showed a relatively narrow temperature windows in which shrinkage occurred. Relative densities of 95% were reached upon heating between 900 and 960 °C. Depending on the morphological features of the primary particles, either homogeneous and intact microstructures with fine grains of about
