    In this work, the effect of calcination temperatures on the microstructure and phase formation of Ba(Zr<inf>0.25</inf>Ti<inf>0.75</inf>)O<inf>3</inf> (BZT) powders were investigated. The BZT powders were prepared via the solid state reaction method under various calcination temperatures. It was found that the second phases such as BaCO<inf>3</inf> ZrO<inf>2</inf>, BaZrO<inf>3</inf> and Ba<inf>2</inf>ZrO<inf>4</inf> existed in samples with calcination temperature below 1200 °C. Homogeneity and a highly pure perovskite phase of the BZT powders were obtained with calcination condition at 1300 °C for 4 h. Lattice parameter a and the percentage of cubic perovskite phase tended to increase with increasing calcination temperatures. The TG-DTA results corresponded to the XRD investigation. The microstructures of calcined powders exhibited an almost-spherical morphology and had a porous agglomerated form in all samples. The average particle sizes were increased from 0.2 to 1.1 μm when calcination temperatures were increased from 800 to 1350 °C. © 2008 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
