Abstract

PZT powders were prepared by the molten salt synthesis method. The porous PZT specimens were prepared from a mixture of PZT and polyvinylalcohol(PVA) powders by BURPS(Burnout Plastic Sphere) technique. The pulse-echo response of porous PZT transducer with various PVA wt.% were studied. The fall time of pulse-echo response of porous PZT transducer was shorten to that of solid PZT-maded transducer. Therefore, a good transmitting and receiving properties could be obtained. The distance between transducer and reflector was in good agreement both solid PZT and porous PZT fabricated transducer.
