Description
Summary:In this paper, we report on the dielectric properties of PbTiO 3/ZnO ceramic nanocomposites prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction method with improvement in densification by the addition of ZnO nanowhiskers. Phase formation, densification, microstructure and dielectric properties of the composites were investigated as a function of the content of ZnO nanowhiskers. Densification behavior of the ceramic nanocomposites was significantly enhanced, as compared to pure PbTiO3 ceramics. Moreover, the dielectric constant of the composites was higher than that of the pure PbTiO3 ceramics. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
