The Effects Of PVA Binder On The Structural And Dielectric Properties Of BNT-BT Ceramics

Bismuth Sodium Titanate – Barium Titanate (BNT-BT) is known as a lead-free piezoelectric ceramic with perovskite structure. In this work, the preparation of BNT-BT with different PVA (Poly vinyl alcohol) binder contents using solid state reaction was done. This work is mainly to study the effectiven...
