Abstract:

In this paper, the sol-gel method was used to systematic study of the preparation conditions and sintering conditions about KNN-0.008BF powders. At the same time, microstructure and electrical properties of ceramics were studied and analyzed. In this experiment, citric acid(CA) as metal chelator, ethylene glycol(EG) as esterification and chelating agents. Through a large number of experiments, n(citric acid):n(ethylene glycol)=2:1, n(citric acid):n(Nb5+)=1.5:1 is the best equipped ratio. This ratio can obtained pale yellow transparent solution. Under the experiments condition, PH of the precursor solution and the sintering temperature of powders have great influence on experimental. Experiments confirmed that PH=5-6 and temperature=1100°C is the best preparation condition, in which condition piezoelectric ceramics can obtained excellent structures and piezoelectric properties.
