The Technology and Structural Properties of Special Glass Modified (Ba0.6Pb0.4)TiO3 Ceramics

Abstract The present paper widely describes the details of technology of (Ba 0.6 Pb 0.4 )TiO 3 ceramics modified with PbO-B 2 O 3 -Al 2 O 3 -WO 3 special glass, as well as the influence of admixture on the microstructure and crystal structure of basic material. The microstructure investigations reveal the significant increase of grain size and a decrease of pores participation in volume of modified samples, whereas the X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) measurements show a decrease of the volume of unit cell. The obtained results are discussed due to processes occurring during the sintering process at high temperature.
