The crystallization behaviour of perovskite $PbTiO_3$ for the samples heat- treated at various temperatures for various times in the $PbO-TiO_2-A1_2O_3-SiO_2$, glass system has been investigated by the means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses. Higher crystallinity obtained in the sample heat-treated at higher temperature for longer time. With increasing heat-treatment time, dielectric constant of the samples heat-treated at $610^{\circ}C$ and $650^{\circ}C$ increased, but that of the sample heat- treated at $800^{\circ}C$ decreased. Loss tangent of the heat-treated samples was not much influenced by heat-treatment conditions. Piezodielectric charge constant was approximately $1.0\times10^{-12}~8.0$\times$10^{-12}C/N$ in the samples heat-treated at $800^{\circ}C$ for 1h, 2h, and 8h.
