Abstract

The possibility of fast firing a relaxor dielectric to suppress grain growth, mitigate the lead loss and reduce the cost of sintering has been investigated. The relaxor Pb(Mn1/3 Nb2/3).02 (Mg1/2 W1/2 ).48 Zr.23 Ti.27 O3 [1] exhibits a highly desirable broad phase transistion range when the prbcessing procedures are carefully controlled and fired conventionally. When fast fired, this material's density, percentage of secondary phases, and dielectric constant were highly dependent on the sintering time. A sample fired for 6 minutes possessed a dielectric constant nearly equal to the same material conventionally fired for 16 hours.
