In this work, mixed (Sm1-xYx)2[C2O4]3.nH2O with x= 0.50 and 0.70 were prepared using standardized co precipitation method. All the synthesized oxalates were characterized by x-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimeter. All the samples are homogeneous in stoichiometry. The XRD analysis of these synthesized samples reveals that a solid solution forms for these two compositions The thermal decomposition of the mixed oxalates is complex although completed a lower temperatures. This is an important result for the preparation of Sm-Y mixed oxides, because all the properties of the mixed oxides are intrinsic and depend only on their composition and thermal treatment schedules.
