Description

The surface modification of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) ceramics with phosphate ester leaves a phosphorus residue absorbed onto the particle surface. During the sintering processes, this surface layer reacts with the PZT to form lead-rich compounds, such as Pb3(PO4)2 and Pb4(P2O9). The formation of such a compounds may be the responsible for the grain growth inhibition observed in PZT-modified ceramics, as well as the lead loss reduction.
