Item type:Publication, Low temperature fabrication of lead-free KNN-LS-BS ceramics via the combustion method(2013-05-01); Bongkarn, TheerachaiLead-free piezoelectric 0.992(0.95K<inf>0.5</inf>Na<inf>0.5</inf>NbO <inf>3</inf>-0.05LiSbO<inf>3</inf>)-0.008BiScO<inf>3</inf>; KNN-LS-BS ceramics were successfully prepared using the combustion method. The highest % perovskite phase was found in the sample calcined at 700 °C for 1 h. The structural phase of orthorhombic structure was also detected in this sample. For the sintered ceramics, a pure tetragonal perovskite phase was observed in the samples sintered between 1025 and 1100 °C. The microstructure of ceramics showed a square or rectangular shape and the average grain size increased with increasing of sintering temperature. The density of the ceramics increased with increasing of sintered temperature up to 1075 °C, were it reached 97.5% of theoretical density and then dropped in value when the sintered temperature further increased. The excellent electrical properties of ε<inf>r</inf> at T<inf>c</inf>=6600, tanδ at T<inf>c</inf>=0.04, P<inf>r</inf> (at 40 kV/cm)=19.4 μC/cm<sup>2</sup> and E<inf>c</inf> (at 40 kV/cm)=24.1 kV/cm were obtained in the most dense ceramic. The results indicate that the KNN-LS-BS ceramics are promising lead-free piezoelectric materials. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.
