For low-temperature firing of Pb0.94Sr0.06(Ni1/2W1/2)0.02(Mn1/3Nb2/3)0.07(Zr0.51Ti0.49)0.91O3 (PNW–PMN–PZT) system, BiFeO3 is selected as the sintering agent. In this study, the effects of BiFeO3 addition and sintering temperature on the microstructures and piezoelectric properties of the ceramics were investigated in detail. The ceramic with 10 mol% BiFeO3 sintered at 950 °C possesses optimal microstructure and piezoelectric properties. However, with the increase of sintering temperature the lower relative density, abnormal grain growth, and secondary phase accumulated at grain boundaries are observed, which deteriorates the piezoelectric properties. For the ceramics with different BiFeO3 addition sintered at 950 °C, the densification process and the grain growth are improved by suitable BiFeO3, while the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) moving to the Ti-rich direction and the shrinkage of crystal cell occur. However, extra BiFeO3 inhabits the grain growth and introduces more cavities into the materials. Because of the microstructural changes that accompany the addition of BiFeO3 and the resulting decrease in sintering temperature, the maximum values of the piezoelectric properties are attained. By doping with 10 mol% BiFeO3, the sintering temperature of the PNW–PMN–PZT system can be lowered successfully from 1200 to 950 °C, while the excellent electric properties are kept.

The effect of CaO-B2O3-SiO2 glass on the densification, microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of Ba4Nd9.33Ti18O54 ceramics was investigated in this work. It was found that the addition of a few amount of glass (≤2%) could effectively decrease the sintering temperature owing to the viscous sintering. However, locally porous structures were formed when overmuch glass was added because of enwrapped air bubbles and rapid grain growth. In addition, the amount of remaining glass after sintering could be decreased due to the re-crystallization of CaO-B2O3-SiO2 glass. Sol-gel derived Ba4Nd9.33Ti18O54 ceramics containing 2 wt% glass can be well densified at 950°C and exhibit good microwave dielectric properties of εr=68 and Q×f=7400 GHz.

The effects of CuO-B2O3(CBO) additive on densification, microstructure, and electrical properties of (Ba0.98Ca0.02)(Sn0.04Ti0.96)O3(BCST) cermaics were investigated. The phase compositions, microstructure, dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of BCST ceramics were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), precision impedance analyzer, ferroelectric tester and quasi-static piezoelectric constant testing meter, respectively. The results show that CuO-B2O3(CBO) frit can improve the densification and promote low-temperature sintering of BCST ceramics prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction method. Dense BCST ceramics with CBO can be sintered at temperatures as low as 1175 °C, which is approximately 275 °C less than the sintering temperature of pure BCST. When sintered at 1200 °C, the optimized properties of the BCST ceramics with 0.5 wt% CBO were obtain asε= 1206,d33= 346 pC/N,kP= 0.39, tgδ = 0.009.

Samarium cobalt is known as super high density magnetic material with large magnetic anisotropy energy. Samarium–cobalt exhibits manipulative magnetic properties as a rare-earth material which has different properties in a low sintering temperature. It is therefore of paramount importance to investigate samarium cobalt (Sm2Co17) magnetic properties in the low temperature sintering condition. Sm2Co17, which is utilized in this research, is synthesized via the sol–gel process at sintering temperatures of 400, 500, and 600 °C. Subsequently, the crystallites indicate the formation of a single-phase Sm2Co17 on all the samples in all temperature variations. Moreover, the peaks in the X-ray diffraction analysis of crystallite sizes calculated using the Scherrer equation are 17.730, 15.197, and 13.296 nm at 400, 500, and 600 °C. Through scanning electron microscopy, the particles are found to be relatively large and agglomerated, with average sizes of 143.65, 168.78, and 237.26 nm. The functional groups are also analyzed via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, which results in the appearance of several bonds in the samples, for example, alkyl halides, alkanes, and esters with aromatic functional groups on the fingerprint area and alkynes, alkyl halides, and alcohol functional groups at a wavelength of above 1500 cm. The test results of the magnetic properties using vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) revealed high coercivity and retentivity in the samples sintered at 400 °C. However, the highest saturation occurs in the samples sintered at 600 ℃. At a low sintering temperature (below 1000 °C), samarium cobalt shows as the soft magnetic material.

Al8B4C7 was used as a sintering additive for the densification of nano-SiC powder. The average grain size was approximately 70 nm after sintering SiC-12.5wt% Al8B4C7 at 1550 °C. The densification rate strongly depended on the sintering temperature and the applied pressure. The rearrangement of SiC particles occurred at the initial shrinkage, while viscous flow and liquid phase sintering became important at the middle and final stage of densification.
