“…Liquid phase formation was caused by TiO 2 excess in relation to BaO in the initial BT powder (small amounts of Ba 4 Ti 12 O 27 detected by XRD). The sintering temperature of 1300 • C was close to the eutectic value of BaTiO 3 -Ba 6 Ti 17 O 40 (about 1320 • C) [25,26]. After the milling of powder, the traces of liquid phase disappeared (Figure 10c,d).…”

“…For this reason, the decrease of tetragonality was observed in the conventionally-manufactured samples with prolongation of milling (Figure 9). Slightly elongated AG are likely to grow below the eutectic mentioned above, while, above the eutectic, they appear equiaxed [25]. TiO 2 excess in the raw BT powder is often assumed as a condition for AG growth [26].…”
The additive manufacturing of BaTiO3 (BT) ceramics through stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing at 465 nm wavelength was demonstrated. After different milling times, different paste compositions with varied initial micron-sized powders were studied to find a composition suitable for 3D printing. The pastes were evaluated in terms of photopolymerization depth depending on the laser scanning speed. Furthermore, the microstructure and properties of the BT ceramic samples produced through SLA 3D printing were characterized and compared with those of ceramics fabricated through a conventional die semi-drying pressing method. Three-dimensional printed samples achieved relative densities over 0.95 and microhardness over 500 HV after sintering, nearly matching the relative density and microhardness attained by the pressed samples. Upon poling, the 3D-printed samples attained acceptable piezoelectric module d33 = 148 pC/N and dielectric constants over 2000. At near full density, BT piezoceramics were successfully fabricated through SLA 3D printing at 465 nm wavelength, achieving photopolymerization depth of more than 100 microns. This work paves the relatively low-cost way for 3D printing of piezoelectric ceramics using conventional micron-sized powders and high printed layer thickness.

“…The authors clearly indicate that an intermediate BaCO 3 phase has formed, which is also consistent with independent report, but decomposes at temperatures above 700 °C. In complex metal oxides and perovskites such as BTO, abnormal grain growth is a common phenomenon and can have multiple reasons. , One obvious reason that is associated with the use of nanomaterials, however, would be that during the overall process large-grained BaCO 3 structures of the type described in Figures and a have formed as intermediates to serve as precursor grain for the significantly larger BTO grains that result from subsequent sintering-induced carbonate decomposition. Inspection of the electron microscopy data reported in refs and with structures reported in this study may substantiate this hypothesis, which is also in line with the earlier reported effects of residual BaCO 3 on the dedensification of BTO during sintering …”
Under ambient conditions
and in aqueous environments, transformations
of nanoparticle-based ferroelectric components can raise important
stability issues that are relevant for applications as multilayer
capacitors, flexible piezoelectrics, or biomedical devices. We show
that X-ray amorphous BaTiO3 nanoparticles that were grown
by flame spray pyrolysis and which can be incorporated into electrospun
polymer fibers undergo incongruent Ba2+ dissolution in
the presence of water. At pH > 5 and in contact with air, corresponding
Ba solutes spontaneously convert into crystalline BaCO3 needles to produce characteristic nano- and microstructures. We
compared the reactivity of amorphous BaTiO3 nanoparticle
powders with those of nanocrystals after annealing-induced crystallization.
The stability of aqueous nanoparticle–polymer formulations,
which are typically part of nanoparticle encapsulation in polymers
and electrospinning, was included in this analysis. Nanoparticle size,
crystallinity, surface area, the presence of carbonaceous surface
contaminants, and the effect of surface passivation with polymers
are addressed to underline the critical role of condensed water during
the synthesis, storage, and processing of BaTiO3 nanoparticle-based
composites.
“…16 A brief description is given here. A commercial BaTiO 3 powder (NEB, Ferro Co., Inc., OH, USA) with a reported Ba/Ti ratio of 1.000 ± 0.002 was used as the raw material.…”
