| Summary: | The paper studies the effect of nickel ferrite addition and sintering temperature on the density, dielectric and piezoelectric characteristics of barium titanate ceramics. A density jump is detected, when with an increase in the ferrite content the density first increases and then drops sharply. Moreover, if at a sintering temperature of 1200 °C the maximum density (5.38 g/cm3) occurs at a ferrite concentration of 0.05 mol.%, then at a sintering temperature of 1300 °C the maximum density (5.62 g/cm3) shifts to the region of higher ferrite concentrations and is 0.1 mol.%. Thus, it can be stated that at a sintering temperature of 1300 °C the ferrite addition in an amount of 0.1 mol.% acts as a sintering activator. X-ray phase analysis showed that in alloyed barium titanate the tetragonal splitting of lines is expressed more strongly, and the calculated lattice parameters a and c differ significantly from the parameters of pure barium titanate. The addition of 0.1 mol.% ferrite lowers the Curie temperature of the phase transition from the cubic phase to the tetragonal phase from 117 to 108.5 °C. Activation of the sintering process with the addition of ferrite up to ~0.1 mol.% makes it possible to reduce the sintering temperature to 1300 °C and obtain ceramics with high functional characteristics. Relative density is 93%, specific resistance is ~1010 Ohm·m, permittivity is 1500, piezoelectric modulus d31 is 85 pC/N, electromechanical coupling coefficient is 0.37. |
