Perovskite phase development study of PCT 90/10 system was carried out. Modified chemical technique was used for synthesis. Single perovskite phase with a polycrystalline tetragonal structure was obtained in PCT 90/10 ceramic system at 600 degrees C processing temperature. Dense packing of grains with average grain size -1 mu m was observed in PCT 90/10 ceramic samples. Curie transition temperature (T-c) of PCT 90/10 ceramic samples was found to be similar to 180 degrees C with diffuse phase transition. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
