Abstract

The effects of Li2O–ZnO–B2O3 (LZB) glass additive on the sintering behavior, phase composition, microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of Li2Zn3Ti4O12 ceramics were investigated. The addition of a small amount of LZB glass can reduce the sintering temperature of Li2Zn3Ti4O12 ceramics from 1,075 to 900 °C without much degradation of the microwave dielectric properties. Only a single-phase Li2Zn3Ti4O12 is formed in Li2Zn3Ti4O12 ceramic with LZB addition. Typically, the 1.5 wt% LZB glass-added Li2Zn3Ti4O12 ceramic sintered at 900 °C for 2 h can reach a high relative density of 97.5 % and exhibits good microwave dielectric properties, i.e., relative dielectric constant (ε r ) = 19.1, quality factor (Q) = 7083.5 at 9 GHz, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τ f ) = − 48.9 ppm/°C. In addition, the ceramic could be co-fired well with an Ag electrode, which is made it as a promising dielectric ceramic for low temperature co-fired ceramics technology application.
