Correlation of Some Dielectric Properties with Processing and Microstructure in Mg-Sn-O System

The alkaline-earth stannates having the general chemical formula MSn03 (M = Ca, Sr and Ba), have been projected as potential electronic ceramics (thermally stable capacitors, humidity sensor, carbon dioxide sensor, etc.). Even though magnesium is a member of the metal group to which Ca, Sr and Ba...
