Synthesis and Characterization of Pb(Zr_0.52Ti_0.48)O₃ Properties via High Planetary Mill

Abstract:

In this work, the piezoelectric material system of Pb (Zr_0.52Ti_0.48)O₃ ceramics were synthesized by conventional solid state via high energy planetary mill reaction. This process were chosen in order to skip the calcinations and implement a single firing process which very effective to reduce the possibility of PbO loss. The effect of sintering parameters on structural behavior of pure PZT ceramic was discussed in detail. Comprehensive studies have been carried out in order get optimum parameter for sintering process, thus improved the performance of the pure PZT ceramics. Grain size properties of Pb (Zr_0.52Ti_0.48)O₃ ceramics increased with increasing the sintering temperature and duration. However longer sintering condition (1200 °C, 3 hours) causes excessive PbO loss which leads to presence new phases in XRD analysis, promote grain growth behavior with inhomogenous microstructure and tend to have more pores.
