The melting temperature and critical temperature(Tc) of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ with deferent content impurities of PbO and $BaPbO_3$ were studied. When the PbO was used as addition in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$, although the melting point could be reduced, the superconductivity(the transition width, ${\Delta}T_c$) became poor. From the XRD pattern of the sintered mixture of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and PbO it was known that there is a reaction between $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and PbO, and the product is $BaPbO_3$. In the process of the reaction the superconducting phase of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ was decreased and in the sample $BaPbO_3$ became the main phase. Therefore the superconductivity was reduced. $BaPbO_3$ was chosen as the impurity for the comparative study. The single phase BaPbO3 was synthesized by the simple way from both mixtures of $BaPbO_3$ and PbO, $BaPbO_3\;and\;PbO_2$. Deferent contents of $BaPbO_3$(10%, 20%, 30%) were added in the $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$. By the phase analysis in the XRD patterns it was proved that there werenot reactions between $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and $BaPbO_3$. When $BaPbO_3$ was used as impurity in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ the superconductivity was much better than PbO as impurity in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$. But the melting point of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ with $BaPbO_3$ could not be found when the temperature was lower than $1000^{\circ}C$ in the DTA measurement.

Addition of various acids or organic compounds to the electrolyte solution during the electrodeposition of $PbO_2$ on titanium madras substrate strongly affected performance of the deposited $PbO_2$ layer. Results of X-ray diffractometry ascertained that ${\beta}-PbO_2$ was deposited in acidic electrolyte. Among additives used in this experiment, $PbO_2$ with a high oxygen overvoltage was electrodeposited when sodium lauryl sulfate was added, and $PbO_2$ with a lower chlorine overvoltage was electrodeposited when polyethylene glycol was added to the electrolyte solution. The oxygen and chlorine overvoltage of $PbO_2$ was strongly dependent on the stirring provided during the electrodeposition experiment. It was observed by the SEM results that the $PbO_2$ grains deposited when stirring was not provided during the electrodeposition have larger than $PbO_2$ grains deposited by stirring. In the $PbO_2$ deposition under acidic electrolyte, the oxygen overvoltage increased with larger $PbO_2$ grains and the chlorine overvoltage decreased with smaller $PbO_2$ grains. The optimal current efficiency of $PbO_2$ in the presence of perchloric acid was observed at $Pb(NO_3)_2$ 560g/l, $65{\sim}70^{\circ}C$, and pH>1.

The effects of 0 to 6 mol% excess 91PbO-9WO3 addition on the microstructure and the dielectric pro-perties in 40Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-30PbTiO3-30Pb(Mg1/2W1/2)O3 ternary system were investigated. Excess 91PbO-9WO3 addition enhanced densification at relatively lower temperature due to the formation of liquid phase. The dielectric constant of the specimen with standard composition was 16,400 and that of specimen with 1 mol% excess additive was the maximum of 18,500. And more than 2 mol% excess addition decreased dielec-tric constant. Specimens with 2~4 mol% 91PbO-9WO3 addition showed dual peak maxima in the tem-perature dependence of dielectric constant. In the specimens which have more than 5 mol% excess addition a new phase with W-rich composition was formed at grain boundary.

Phase transformation of PbO-precursor prepared from $Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$ by precipitation technique was observed by TG-DTA, XRD, FT-IR, and Raman spectral analysis. PbO-precursor was derived from an aqueous solution of $Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$ at $45^{\circ}C$ and pH of 9.0. The precipitate showed it to be the mixture of hydrous lead oxynitrate and lead hydroxynitrate. With increasing heat-treatment temperature ranging up to $560^{\circ}C$, the precursor changed to $3Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$ . 7Pb0, $Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$. 5Pb0 and PbO(litharge), in turn. Finally, it transformed to massicot form of PbO above $560^{\circ}C$.

The effect of excess PbO(0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 mol%) on grain growth and densification of (65)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-(35)PbTiO3 [mol%] ceramics has been investigaetd. With increasing the amount of excess PbO and sintering time, densities of sintered samples decreased gradually. The samples containing less than 1 mol% of PbO showed normal grain growth behavior, however abnormal grain growth was observed to occur in the samples with more than 2 mol% of PbO. In the samples with more than 2 mol% of PbO, the number of abnormal grains decreased and thus the average grain size became smaller with increasing the amount of excess PbO. These results demonstrated that the abnormal grain growth started to occur when a critical amount of excess PbO was added to a (65)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-(35)PbTiO3 sample. Since PMN-PT grains in a liquid matrix were angular, the observed abnormal grain growth was explained to proceed through the two dimensional nucleation process.

Effect of PbO addition on sintering and piezoelectric properties at 0.45Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.40PbTiO3-0.15PbZrO3 composition which is tetragonal phase was investigated. In this composition, Porosity and dielectric constant were increased with excess PbO addition, but Kp and d31 was not changed. These variation of physical properties could be interpreted as composition change of solid grains from tetragonal to MPB region due to amount of PbO-rich liquid changing.

Effects of PbTiO3 addition on dielectric properties and extent of PbO loss in Nd-doped Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 system were investigated. As the proportion of dopping increased, the phase transition temperature shifted to low region, and the dielectric constant at room temperature decreased rapidly. But as the proportion of PbTiO3 increased, the phase transition temperature shifted to high retion, and the dielectric constant at room temperature increased. The substitution of Nd3+ for Pb2+ decreased the amount of PbO evaporation, therefore the sample sintered well in case of only 1 mole% adding excess PbO.

Influence of Nd3+ substitution for Pb2+ on the dielectric properties and the PbO evaporation according to substituting Nd3+ for Pb2+ in Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 system ceramics have been investigated. The dielectric constant at the curie temperature and evaporation of PbO were decreased with increase of Nd3+ amounts. The percentage of PbO evaporation was 2.5wt% in the PMN system substituted Nd3+ for Pb2+, while it was 3.7wt% in the PMN system.
