The continuous precipitation of zinc carbonates using aqueous solutions of zinc nitrate and sodium carbonate was quenched within a few seconds by combining a micromixer with a bench-top spray dryer. In this way, it was possible to monitor the slow phase transformation of the initially formed sodium zinc carbonate into zinc hydroxy carbonate during subsequent washing and drying. An increased stirring rate applied during washing was found to accelerate this phase transformation, thus influencing the specific surface areas and pore size distributions of the ZnO powder materials finally obtained after calcination.
