Abstract
An influence of compacting conditions on applied properties of the multiferroic PbFe1/2Nb1/2O3 (PFN) ceramics synthesized by the columbite method and powder calcination technique is presented in this work. The obtained specimens were subjected to X-ray and chemical composition homogeneity analyses, magnetic tests, electric direct current conductivity and electromechanical tests. Differences in the degree of diffuseness, densities and a grain size were observed depending on the sintering method. The dielectric and magnetic parameters as a function of temperature were measured. The tests confirmed that PFN powder compacting by a hot uniaxial pressing method had an advantageous influence on the crystalline structure ordering and the ceramics microstructure, what improves the applied properties of the material.
