Abstract

The glass samples with composition 37.5PbO:37.5TiO2:22.5B2O3:2.5SiO2 were synthesized by conventional melt quenching technique. These glasses were converted to glass–ceramic by following the two stage heat treatment, by varying systematically the duration of heat treatment. The density, dielectric constant and dielectric loss of glass and glass–ceramic samples were measured. The density and dielectric constant of the glass–ceramic samples were observed to increase with the heat treatment duration up to 32 h. The glass–ceramic samples exhibited ferroelectric hysteresis due to the presence of PbTiO3 crystals as confirmed from XRD. From the results it can be concluded that 32 h heat treatment duration is optimum for getting PbTiO3 glass–ceramic. The high temperature ferroelectric hysteresis measurements have been carried out for the optimized (32 h) glass–ceramic sample. The exhibition of ferroelectric behaviour up to 250 °C indicates the possibility of utilization of this sample for high temperature transducer applications.
