We weal know that PbO was poisonous and prone to volatilize, then to pollute the circumstance and hurt to people, so we should dope other innocuous additives instead of lead to increase Tc of composite PTC material. In order to prepare lead-free $BaTiO_3$-based PTC with middle Curie point, the incorporation on $(BaNaK)(TiNb)O_3$ into $BaTiO_3$-based ceramics was investigated on samples containing 0.05, 0.07 and 0.1mol% of $(BaNaK)(TiNb)O_3$. $(BaNaK)(TiNb)O_3$ was compounded as standby material by conventional solid-state reaction technique. The starting materials were $Na_2O_3$,$K_2CO_3$, $BaCO_3$, $TiO_2$ and $Nb_2O_5$ powder, and using solid-state reaction method, too. The microstructure of samples were investigated by SEM, DSC, XRD and dielectric properties. Phase composition and lattice parameters were investigated by X-ray diffraction. Also, we are measure the resistivity of sintered bodies with calcinations condition.

$Pb(Zr,Ti_O_3$계 세라믹스는 우수한 압전 특성으로 인하여 압전변압기 및 액츄에이터, 센서 등 많은 분야에 응용이 되어져 왔다. 그러나, 최근 들어 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 급속도로 많은 휘발을 하는 PbO는 환경 및 인체에 나쁜 영향을 미칠 뿐 아니라 사용 후의 처리도 어려워 선진국에서는 사용을 제한하거나 줄이고 있는 추세에 있다. 따라서, PbO를 포함하지 않은 무연 (Lead-free)계 압전 세라믹스에 대한 연구가 많은 관심을 끌고 있으며 앞으로는E 장래성 있는 하나의 이슈 분야가 될 것이다. 이러한 Pb-based System 세라믹스를 대체 할 재료로서 $(Bi_{1/2}Na_{1/2})TiO_3$나 Tungsten-Bronze type, $(K_{1/2}Na_{1/2})NbO_3$ 등이 주로 연구가 되고 있다. 특히, alkali niobate를 기초로 한 $(K_{1/2}Na_{1/2})NbO_3(NKN)$은 무연 압전 물질로서 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 그러나, NKN의 주요 성분인 K 의 높은 조해성 때문에 일반적인 고상방법으로는 고 밀도의 세라믹을 얻기 힘들뿐더러 낮은 상전이 온도 때문에 많은 응용에는 제약이 되고 있다. 이러한 세라믹의 단점을 보완하고자 Hot forging, RTGG, SPS 등 과 같이 특수한 소결방법을 사용하여 고밀도의 세라믹을 제작하지만 이 방법들은 제품 대량 생산에 있어 경제적으로나 복잡한 제조과정을 고려할 때 매우 비효율적이라고 판단된다. 그러므로 $BaTiO_3$, $LiTaO_3$, Mg, Ca등을 첨가 시켜 소결을 향상시키고 고밀도를 얻기 위해 많은 연구가 진행 중이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Pb-based계의 세라믹스를 대체할 우수한 특성의 세라믹스를 제작하고자 기존의 $(K_{1/2}Na_{1/2})NbO_3(NKN)$세라믹스에서 낮은 용융온도 때문에 소결하기 어려운 $KNbO_3$를 제거한 $NaNbO_3$에 $LiNbO_3$와 $BaTiO_3$를 추가한 $NaLiNbO_3-BaTiO_3$세라믹스에 $K_4CuNb_8O_{23}$(KCN)을 첨가함으로서 이에 따른 압전 및 유전 특성을 조사하였다.

In this paper, in order to develop Pb-free piezoelectric ceramics, $(Li_{0.05}Na_{0.57}K_{0.38})NbO_3$ ceramic was fabricated with the variation of $Bi_2O_3$ addition. Piezoelectric properties of the ceramic were varied with the amount of $Bi_2O_3$ addition and showed the maximum kp value at.0.2 wt% $Bi_2O_3$ addition. Qm of $Bi_2O_3$ added ceramics showed lower values than the non-added ceramics, however, the kp was increased by the addition of $Bi_2O_3$ up to 0.2 wt%. At the sintering temperature of 1110$^{\circ}C$ and the calcination temperature of 850$^{\circ}C$, the optimal values of density=4.52g/$cm^3$, kp=0.47, $\varepsilon_r$=400 were obtained.

In this study, $(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})(Nb_{0.97}Sb_{0.03})O_3+0.9$ mol% $K_{5.4}Cu_{1.3}Ta_{10}O_{29}+x$ mol% $K_4CuNb_8O_{23}$ (x = 0, 0.2, 0.6, 0.8) ceramics were prepared by a conventional mixed oxide method. Their microstructure and electric properties were investigated. The secondary phase was made by virtue of $K_4CuNb_8O_{23}$ (KCN) addition in the $(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})(Nb_{0.97}Sb_{0.03})O_3$ system ceramics. However, the sinterability of the ceramics increased with increasing $K_4CuNb_8O_{23}$ content. At the 0.6 mol% $K_4CuNb_8O_{23}$ added composition ceramics sintered at $1,060^{\circ}C$, kp and $d_{33}$ showed the optimum values of 0.39 and 145 pC/N, respectively, suitable for piezoelectric actuator application.

In this study, $0.95(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_{3}-0.05Li(Sb_{0.8}Nb_{0.2})O_{3}+0.2\;wt%Ag_{2}O$ were investigated as a variations of sintering times in order to improve dielectric and piezoelectric properties of lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. $Ag_{2}O$ were used as sintering aids and the specimens were sintered during 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11 hours, respectively. At the specimen sintered during 7 hour, Electromechanical coupling factor ($k_p$), density, dielectric constant (${\epsilon}_{\gamma}$), piezoelectric constant ($d_{33}$) and curie temperature ($T_c$) of composition ceramics showed the optimal value of 0.450, 4.274 $[g/cm^3]$, 1007, 257 [pC/N] and $396^{\circ}C$, respectively.

As a candidate for lead-free piezoelectric materials, dense $(Na_xK_{0.94-x}Li_{0.06})NbO_3$ ceramics were developed by conventional sintering process. Sintering temperature was lowered by adding 1 mol% $Li_2O$ as a sintering aid. The electrical properties of $(Na_xK_{0.94-x}Li_{0.06})NbO_3$ ceramics were investigated as a function of Na/K ratio. When the sample sintered at $950^{\circ}C$ for 4 h with the compositions of morphotropic phase boundary, 0.47 < x < 0.51, electro-mechanical coupling factor ($k_p$) and piezoelectric coefficient ($d_{33}$) were found to reach the highest values of 0.42 and 190 pC/N, respectively. These excellent piezoelectric and electro-mechanical properties indicate that this system is potentially good candidate for lead-free material for a wide range of electro-mechanical transducer applications.

The grain growth behavior in the (1-x)K_0.5Na_0.5NbO₃-xCaZrO₃ (KNNCZ-x) system is studied as a function of the amount of CZ and grain shape. The (1-x)K_0.5Na_0.5NbO₃-xCaZrO₃ (KNNCZ-x) powders are synthesized using a conventional solid-state reaction method. A single orthorhombic phase is observed at x = 0 - 0.03. However, rhombohedral and orthorhombic phases are observed at x = 0.05. The grain growth behavior changes from abnormal grain growth to the suppression of grain growth as the amount of CaZrO₃ (CZ) increases. With increasing CZ content, grains become more faceted, and the step-free energy increases. Therefore, the critical growth driving force increases. The grain size distribution broadens with increasing sintering time in KNNCZ-0.05. As a result, some large grains with a driving force larger than the critical driving force for growth exhibit abnormal grain growth behavior during sintering. Therefore, CZ changes the grain growth behavior and microstructure of KNN. Grain growth at the faceted interface of the KNNCZ system occurs via two-dimensional nucleation and growth.

In this paper, lead-free [$Li_{0.04}(Na_{y}K_{1-y})_{0.96}](Nb_{0.86}Ta_{0.1}Sb_{0.04})O_{3}$ (y=0.4 - 0.58) ceramics were manufactured using conventional miked oxide method for acoustic emission(AE) sensor application and their dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated with the variations of Na/K ratio. The samples in the composition Na/K=54/46 exhibited excellent electrical properties of $d_{33}=300$ PC/N and kp=0.49. Taking into consideration above piezoelectric properties, it can be concluded that the [$Li_{0.04}(Na_{y}K_{1-y})_{0.96}](Nb_{0.86}Ta_{0.1}Sb_{0.04})O_{3}$ system ceramics are the promising lead-free materials capable of substituting PZT system ceramics.
