Bi4Ti3O12-Based Sol-Gel Composite Ultrasonic Transducer for High-Temperature Measurements
In this letter, Bi4Ti3O12 (BiT)/TiO2 + SrCO3 (TO+Sr) sol-gel composites were characterized to develop a lead-free, highly sensitive, low-temperature sintering ultrasonic transducer material for nondestructive testing in high-temperature environments. Samples of BiT/TO+Sr and, as a comparison, a 50-μm-thick film of lead-containing material BiT/ Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT) were fired at 200°C, 400°C, and 650°C, respectively, and their ultrasonic response properties were evaluated from room temperature to 500°C. In the room-temperature performance test, BiT/TO+Sr with specified firing temperature showed higher d33 and sensitivity than BiT/PZT with the same firing temperature. In the high-temperature cycling test, every sample exhibited a stable ultrasonic response up to 500°C. The sensitivity of BiT/TO+Sr is equivalent to that of BiT/PZT. These results indicate that BiT/TO+Sr sol-gel composites, which can be sintered at low temperatures and have high sensitivity, are promising high-temperature piezoelectric materials that can replace the conventional lead-containing material, such as BiT/PZT.
