In this study, high purity fine $BaTiO_3$ powders were prepared by SHS (Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis). We would examinate the study of sintering properties and characteristics as a function of temperature with various additives (binder, sintering agent). In separately binder addition, the green and sintered density of specimen were increased as binder content increases. The increased porosity resulted in fine grain size due to the inhibition of grain boundary moving. The $Al_{2}O_{3},\;TiO_{2}$ and MgO playa role of increasing dielectric constants at room temperature. These values were decreased at curie temperature. In case of $SiO_2$, the Curie temperature was decreased. In this study, a high dielectric ceramic capacitor material with temperature stability was synthesized by using various additives.

Hydrothemal synthesis of PbTiO3 has been investigated. A comprehensive thermodynamic model for heteroge-nous reacting solid-aquous system has been used to predict the optimum condition for the synthesis. Synthesis were performed using lead acetate trihydrate as Pb source crystalline TiO2 as Ti source and KOH as minerali-zer. The synthesis has been examined at low temperature (16$0^{\circ}C$) Phase pure perovskite PbTiO3 has been obtained at high pH(above 0.5 mol KOH). The morphology of PbTiO3 was acicular shape. It has been found sible for a distortion in the c direction. The water is gradully released on annealing the powder to 40$0^{\circ}C$ and the normal crystallographic properties are restored.

The formation mechanism and photocatalytic properties of a multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/$TiO_2$-based nanotube (TNTs) composite are investigated. The CNT/TNT composite is synthesized via a solution chemical route. It is confirmed that this 1-D nanotube composite has a core-shell nanotubular structure, where the TNT surrounds the CNT core. The photocatalytic activity investigated based on the methylene blue degradation test is superior to that of with pure TNT. The CNTs play two important roles in enhancing the photocatalytic activity. One is to act as a template to form the core-shell structure while titanate nanosheets are converted into nanotubes. The other is to act as an electron reservoir that facilitates charge separation and electron transfer from the TNT, thus decreasing the electron-hole recombination efficiency.

Transient liquid phase processing was investigated to decrease processing temperatures while maintaining useful piezoelectric properties in the lead zirconate titanate (PZT) system. Niobium oxide$(Nb_2O_5)$ modified crystalline PZT (PZTN) powder was combined with lead silicate $(PS; PbO-SiO_2)$ glass powder and crystalline titania, zirconia, and niobia. Firing above the melting temperature of the lead silicate $(PS; Tm \risingdotseq\; 714^{\circk}C)$ resulted in liquid phase densification of the PZTN followed by dissolution of the titania, zirconia, and niobia into the liquid phase, and crystallization of additional PZTN. The addition of crystalline titania, zirconia, and niobia to react with the lead oxide from the lead silicate phase resulted in an increase in the dielectric and Piezoelectric properties.

Barium Titanate (BT) powders were synthesized by solvothermal method with an ethanol as a solvent. The average particle size was increased with the feedstock concentration: the size was 59 nm at $6.25{\times}10^{-2}$ M and 89 nm at 0.5 M. The sample obtained at 0.5 M concentration was analysed by Rietveld refinement and the mole fraction of tetragonal phase was $75.5\%$ and lattice parameter of tetragonal phase was a=0.3999 (nm), c=0.4032 (nm), and cubic phase was a=0.4015 (nm). TEM analysis for the samples with condition of annealing at $500^{\circ}C$ for I h showed that hydroxyl ions on oxygen sites were not found for these experimental conditions.

The cobalt titanate, $CoTiO_3$ nanoparticles have been prepared by calcinations of precursor obtained from a mixture of $TiO_2$ and $Co(OH)_2$ in aqueous cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) solution. The nanoparticles were investigated with X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis (TGA/DTA) to determine the crystallite size and the phase composition. The spectroscopic characterizations of these nanoparticles were also done with UV-Vis spectroscopy and FT-Raman spectroscopy. XRD patterns show that $CoTiO_3$ phase was formed at calcinations temperature above 600 ${^{\circ}C}$. UV-Vis absorption spectra indicate that the $CoTiO_3$ nanoparticles have significant red shift to the visible region (400-700 nm) with $\lambda_{max}$ = 500 nm compared to pure $TiO_2$ powder ($\lambda_{max}$ = 320 nm). The new absorption peaks (absorption at 696, 604, 520, 478,456, 383, 336, 267, 238, 208 $c m ^{-1}$), which were not appeared in FT-Raman spectra of P-25, also confirm the formation of Ti-O-Co bonds at above 600 ${^{\circ}C}$ and just not the mixtures of titanium dioxide with cobalt oxides.

The morphology of lead titanate powders prepared by sol-gel and coprecipitation techniques was investigated as a function of firing temperature and soaking time. PbTiO3 precursor powders were derived from a mixed solution of lead nitrate and titanium tetrachloride at 40℃ to 43℃ and pH of 9.0 to 9.7, and fired at temperatures 350-1000℃ for 1-10h in air. An increase of particle size and agglomeration with increasing calcination temperature and duration could be observed. By annealing sol-gel derived powder at 700℃, the tially-formed acicular(and/or prismatic) primary particles transformed to polyhedral shape with soaking time, and further soaking caused coarsening the polyhedral particles with rounded edges. However, the morphology of the coprecipitated powders was not varied during crystallization.

Conducting Polypyrrole-lead titanate (PPy/PbTiO3) composites have been prepared by in situ deposition technique by placing different wt.% of fine grade powder of PbTiO3 (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%) during polymerization of pyrrole. The composites formed were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and these data indicate that PbTiO3 particles are dominating with an increase in crystallinity as well as thermal stability of the composites. The results on the low frequency dielectric studies which are obtained in the form of pressed pellet state are interpreted in terms of Maxwell Wagner polarization, which are responsible for the dielectric relaxation mechanism and frequency dependence of conductivity.

Barium titanate powder was made by firing the complex hydroxide which had been synthesized with chemical wet process by the medium of $H_2O_2$. This experiment was done as following A mixed solution of $BaCl_2$, $TiCl_4$ and $H_2O_2$ with 1:1:10 mol ratio was prepared. Ammonium hydroxide was added into the mixed solution. In the range of pH 8-10 $BaTiO_3$ complex hydroxide was obtained and treated at room temperature 11$0^{\circ}C$, 20$0^{\circ}C$, 40$0^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$. The results obtaiined from this experiment were as follows. At room temperature $BaTiO_3$ complex hydroxide was amorphous. Above 10$0^{\circ}C$ crystalline $BaTiO_3$ was obtained and particle size of $BaTiO_3$ was increased with elevated temperature. So the particle size of BaTiO3 could be controlled by the firing temperature. After treating $BaTiO_3$ complex hydroxide at 10$0^{\circ}C$ the average particle size of $BaTiO_3$ was 0.22$\mu\textrm{m}$.

A solid-state route was used to prepare sodium titanium oxide (NTO, Na2Ti3O7) as a solar heat protecting material with an impressive solar reflectance (TSR = 94.3%) using a high refractive index rutile TiO2. The solar reflectance of the synthesized NTO was measured using UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer. Solar reflectance property of the synthesized compound depends on the calcination temperature. The solar reflectance property of the synthesized NTO powder was compared with commercial rutile TiO2. The compound synthesized at 900 ℃ for 24 hrs had remarkable solar reflectance 94.3% than that calcined below 900 ℃. Crystalline nature, structural property, morphology and optical properties of NTO powders were characterized and analyzed using XRD, FE-SEM, EDS and UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer. From the results, we guessed that NTO would be a suitable "solar heat protecting candidate" for energy-saving applications in coating industries.
