Abstract

Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) materials have short piezoelectric response times, low power consumption, and can be made in compact shapes. These properties make them potential candidates for actuators in automotive applications. An important issue with PZT materials, especially for the automotive industry, is reliability. It is generally accepted that the reliability of PZT materials are strongly affected by the quality of the green PZT preforms. Studies were initiated to compare the properties of PZT materials prepared by die press, tape cast, and gelcast forming methods. In this report we compare the sintering characteristics of the preforms and the electrical properties of the sintered PZT materials.
