Abstract:

A method of producing fully reacted, homogeneous lead zirconate titanate powders including all the technologically important property modifying additives is described. The method involves reacting mixture of powders of the components together with a eutectic NaCl-KCl mixture at a temperature where the salt is molten. The properties of piezoelectric ceramics made of such powders are compared to data from ceramics fabricated from powder made by calcination. Ceramics made from molten salt synthesized powders generally had a lower dissipation factor and higher mechanical Q. Author
