Abstract
The aurivillius phase of optimum Mn-doped with chemical formula Bi2SrV1.9Mn0.1O9 was carefully prepared by solid state reaction technique and ceramics procedures. The analysis of X-ray confirmed the formation of single aurivillus layered perovskite structure. The sample well characterized and then forwarded to both of SEM and AFM-investigations to predict nano-structural feature and huge surface area topology which qualifies this family of aurivillus with high oxygen content ( O=9) to be active surface material in heterogeneous catalysis processes.
