Abstract
The suspension behaviour of sol-gel derived (Ba0.2Pb0.8) TiO3 powder, was observed as a function of PMMA content (0 to 3%). The suspension shows an optimum dispersion in 70% benzene/30% hexane. The effect of PMMA concentration on the sedimentation density in 70% benzene/30% hexane shows the best dispersion at about 2% PMMA concentration. The sol-gel specimens derived from a well-dispersed suspension with 2% PMMA show a higher dielectric constant at the Curie temperature and a higher density than those in other PMMA concentrations. These results can be explained by the increase in sinterability due to the stable suspension behaviour.
