Abstract

The crystallization behavior of chemically prepared and rapidly solidified PbTiO3 was investigated. Chemical methods were (i) polymeric sol-gel processing and (ii) co-precipitation of fine particles. Rapid solidification was obtained by a twin-roller quencher. Details are reported for the processing methods and the characteristics of the materials. X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy confirmed the amorphous nature of the prepared materials. Crystallization was examined as a function of heat-treatment conditions. Non-isothermal DSC was used to determine the kinetics of crystallization. Activation energies and frequency factors were determined. Co-precipitated PbTiO3 crystallized at the lowest temperature of 375 C, followed by sol-gel at 425 C, and rapidly solidified at 475 C. The results are interpreted in terms of processing routes, structural free-energies, available surface areas and fractional free volumes.
