In this study PZT-green fibres containing 50, 54 and 58 vol.% PZT powder were extruded. The influences on the mixing torque, the apparent shear rate and the extrudability were investigated and a theoretical maximum powder loading content was calculated using a model introduced by Frankel and Acrivos. The influence of powder loading content on the microstructure (porosity and grain size), the phase composition and on the final ferroelectric properties of sintered PZT fibres was investigated. The measurements revealed that the production of PZT fibres with homogeneous properties requires a minimum powder loading content of 58 vol.% PZT powder.

Pure dense silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics were obtained via the high-temperature physical vapor transport (HTPVT) method using graphite paper as the growth substrate. The phase composition, the evolution of microstructure, the thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity at RT to 200∘C were investigated. The obtained samples had a relative density of higher than 98.7% and a large grain size of 1[Formula: see text]mm, the samples also had a room-temperature thermal conductivity of [Formula: see text] and with the temperature increased to 200∘C, the thermal conductivity still maintained at [Formula: see text].

The solid solutions of lead nickel niobate (PNN) and lead zirconate titanate (PZT), with general formula 0.5 Pb(NixNb1-x)O3-0.5 PZT, where x = 1/3, 1/2 and 2/3 and Zr/Ti = 50/50, were prepared by conventional solid state reaction technique. The perovskite phase formation and morphology were examined by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. From microstructure investigations, the grain size was found to lie in the range of 0.2-1.1 ?m. Diffuse phase transition and dielectric relaxation was obtained for all three compositions. The nature of dielectric relaxation was investigated through complex plane Argand plot or Cole-Cole plot. It was found that both grains as well as grain boundary contribute to dielectric relaxation. A direct correlation between the grain size and electrical properties was obtained. The remnant polarization and grain size were found to follow the inverse relationship. The inverse relationship between remnant polarization and grain size was established.

In this work, the properties of lead-free 0.92(Bi0.5Na0.42K0.08)TiO3-0.08(BaNb0.01Ti0.99)O3 or 92BNKT-8BNbT ceramic has been investigated. The sample was fabricated by a solid-state reaction technique. The 92BNKT-8BNbT sample was well sintered and dense with high density value of 5.86 g/cm3. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed a single perovskite phase with tetragonal symmetry and no impurity or secondary phases. The microstructure was analysed using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Average grain size was measured and calculated based on a mean linear intercept method. The ceramics had a cubic-like grain shape with an average grain size of 0.39 µm. The influence of temperature on the dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the ceramic was investigated. The dielectric curves exhibited broad transition peaks at Td and Tm, which were the characteristics of a diffuse phase transition. The polarization-electric field (P-E) hysteresis loop changed from well-saturated at room temperature (RT) to pinched-type loop at high temperature (HT) and the remanent polarization decreased from 21.25 µC/cm2 (at RT) to 5.96 µC/cm2 (at 150 °C).

The mats of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia nanofibers were prepared using electrospinning. The effect of calcination temperature in the range of 600–1200 °C on their microstructure, phase composition and mechanical properties was investigated. Phase composition of the nanofibers did not change in all ranges of the calcination temperatures, while the average grain size increased from 8 to 39 nm. Nanoindentation testing of the mats showed a decrease in the hysteresis loop energy in samples with higher calcination temperature. Hardness and the elastic modulus measured with the indentation technique were the highest for the mats calcined at 900 °C.

Transmission electron microscopy has shown that the grain size of sol-gel-prepared lanthanum-modified lead titanate films increases from ∼100 to ∼1 μm when the excess of PbO in the precursor solution is reduced from 20 to 10 mol%. Switchable polarization is higher in the films with a smaller grain size. Profilometry and the temperature dependence of the dielectric permittivity indicate that films are tensile stressed by the substrate. The grain-size effect on polarization switching is explainedby taking into account this tensile stress, which is thought to induce some a-domain orientation and 90° domain wall clamping in the grains attached to the substrate.

The Bi 3.25 La 0.75 Ti 3 O 12 (BLT) thin films were prepared by metalorganic decomposition method. The effect of grain size on the ferroelectric properties during crystallization were investigated by x-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscope. The grain size and the roughness of BLT films increase with increasing of drying temperature. The leakage current densities of the BLT thin film with large grains are higher than that with small grains. The remanent polarization of BLT increase with increasing grain size. As compared BLT with small grain size, the BLT film with larger grain size shows better fatigue properties. This may be explained that small grained films shows more degradation of switching charge than large grained films.
