Abstract
In this study, we present the results of the manufacturing of \(\hbox {BaTiO}_{3}\) powder, which is meant for use in stacked-disk multilayer actuator production. The solid-state technique was used for powder preparation. The properties of barium titanate material, at each stage of its fabrication (powder, granulate, sintered material), influencing on its application for the stacked-disk multilayer actuator were determined. Particularly, the four parameters of \(\hbox {BaTiO}_{3}\) sinter affecting on the usability properties of actuators, not found before in the literature, were estimated. Parameters characterizing the extent of material sintering, SEM microstructures and electric properties of the fabricated pellets are presented and discussed. The dilatometric curve was executed using the high temperature dilatometer to determine at which temperature barium titanate pellets and beams should be sintered to receive full dense sinters. Parameters characterizing the extent of material sintering: the apparent density, the apparent porosity and the water absorbability were estimated. Finally, the problem of metal layer deposition on barium titanate ceramics during actuator fabrication is considered.
