Lead Zirconate Titanate Nano Powder - A Piezoelectric Material

PZT (lead zirconate titanate)  is a piezoelectric ceramic material with a crystalline perovskite structure which is commonly used in high temperature and sensitivity applications. PZT-based piezoceramics excite attention since they offer excellent piezoelectric properties to design different sensors and actuators. Characteristics of lead zirconate titanate nano powders/micron powders: Wide range of frequencies transmitted and received (sub-audible, audible, ultrasonic) High performance, low drive material High frequency, quick response time High sensitivity for active or passive use Ability to use low-voltage or high-voltage drive circuits Good mechanical and acoustic coupling Wide range of shapes and sizes that can be customized to specific requirements and applications Wide range of compositions that can be selected to meet specific requirements and applications. PZT is a machinable ceramic  that can be precisely dimensioned into tubes, rings, disks, plates a...
