Diatomite powder, a naturally occurring porous raw material, was used to make ceramic materials with porosity and high strength. The sintering behavior of the diatomite powder at various sintering temperatures suggests that diatomite monoliths with a high porosity and strength can be prepared at $1100^{\circ}C$. The compressive strength of the sintered diatomite monoliths increased as the sintering temperature increased, and the molding pressure of 2 MPa and the binder of 18.6 wt.% were excellent. When the sintering temperature rises, the diatomite powder is melted, and its pores gradually disappear. SEM images show that strengthening begins with the formation of inter-particle bonds at a low sintering temperature.

The low temperature sintering of dolomite type borates, $CaZr(BO_3)_2$[CZB] ceramics and their microwave dielectric properties were investigated The sintering temperature of CZB ceramics could be reduced from $1150^{\circ}C$ to $925^{\circ}C$ by the addition of sintering additive. $CaZrO_3$, $ZrO_2$ and $CaB_2O_4$ second phases were found in the CZB ceramics. The syntheses, sintering properties, microstructures, and dielectricnproperties of dolomite-type borates were examined by XRD, thermal analysis, electron microscopy, network analyzer, and the results are discussed intensively. The compatibility with silver electrode was also explored.

In this study, in order to develop the low temperature sintering ceramics for multilayer piezoelectric transformer, PCW-PMN-PZT ceramics added with Li$_2$CO$_3$, Bi$_2$O$_3$ and CuO as sintering aids were manufactured, and their microstructural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated. When the only CuO was added, specimens could not be sintered below 98$0^{\circ}C$. However, when Li$_2$CO$_3$ and Bi$_2$O$_3$ were added, specimens could be sintered below 98$0^{\circ}C$. Li$_2$CO$_3$ and Bi$_2$O$_3$ addition were proved to lower sintering temperature of piezoelectric ceramics due to the effect of Li$_2$O-Bi$_2$O$_3$ liquid phase. Li$_2$CO$_3$ and Bi$_2$O$_3$ added specimens showed higher piezoelectric properties than those of the only CuO added specimens. At 0.2 wt% Li$_2$CO$_3$ and 0.3 wt% Bi$_2$O$_3$ added specimen sintered at 92$0^{\circ}C$, the dielectric constant of 1457, electromechanical coupling factor of 0.56 and mechanical quality factor of 1000 were shown, respectively. These values are suitable for multilayer piezoelectric transformer application.

Copper is a promising electronic material due to low cost and high electrical conductivity. However, the oxidation problem in an ambient condition makes a crucial issue in practical applications. In here, we developed a simple and cost-effective Cu patterning method on a flexible PET film by combining a solution processable Cu nanoparticle patterning and a low temperature post-processing using acetic acid treatment, laser sintering process and acid-assisted laser sintering process. Acid-assisted laser sintering processed Cu electrode showed superior characteristics in electrical, mechanical and chemical stability over other post-processing methods. Finally, the Cu electrode was applied to the flexible electronics applications such as flexible and transparent heaters and touch screen panels.

The effect of sintering temperature on the microstructure, electrical and dielectric properties of (V, Mn, Co, Dy, Bi)-codoped zinc oxide ceramics was investigated in this study. An increase in the sintering temperature increased the average grain size from 4.7 to $10.4{\mu}m$ and decreased the sintered density from 5.47 to $5.37g/cm^3$. As the sintering temperature increased, the breakdown field decreased greatly from 6027 to 1659 V/cm. The ceramics sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ were characterized by the highest nonlinear coefficient (36.2) and the lowest low leakage current density ($36.4{\mu}A/cm^2$). When the sintering temperature increased, the donor concentration of the semiconducting grain increased from $2.49{\times}10^{17}$ to $6.16{\times}10^{17}/cm^3$, and the density of interface state increased from $1.34{\times}10^{12}$ to $1.99{\times}10^{12}/cm^2$. The dielectric constant increased greatly from 412.3 to 1234.8 with increasing sintering temperature.

This paper focuses on the electrical properties and stability against DC accelerated aging stress of ZnO-V₂O₅-MnO₂-Nb₂O₅-Bi₂O₃-Co₃O₄-Dy₂O₃ (ZVMNBCD) varistor ceramics sintered at 850 - 925 ℃. With the increase of sintering temperature, the average grain size increases from 4.4 to 11.8 mm, and the density of the sintered pellets decreases from 5.53 to 5.40 g/㎤ due to the volatility of V₂O₅, which has a low melting point. The breakdown field abruptly decreases from 8016 to 1,715 V/cm with the increase of the sintering temperature. The maximum non-ohmic coefficient (59) is obtained when the sample is sintered at 875 ℃. The samples sintered at below 900 ℃ exhibit a relatively low leakage current, less than 60 mA/㎠. The apparent dielectric constant increases due to the increase of the average grain size with the increase of the sintering temperature. The change tendency of dissipation factor at 1 kHz according to the sintering temperature coincides with the tendency of the leakage current. In terms of stability, the samples sintered at 900 ℃ exhibit both high non-ohmic coefficient (45) and excellent stability, 0.8% in 𝚫E_B/E_B and -0.7 % in 𝚫α/α after application of DC accelerated aging stress (0.85 E_B/85 ℃/24 h).

In this study, in order to develop the low temperature sintering ceramics for multilayer piezoelectric transformer, PCW-PMN-PZT ceramics using Li$_2$CO$_3$, Bi$_2$O$_3$, and CuO as sintering aids were manufactured according to the amount of MnO$_2$ addition. Their microstructural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated. When the sintering aids were added, specimens could be sintered below 95$0^{\circ}C$, but mechanical qualify factor decreased. Therefore, MnO$_2$ was added excessively to the PCW-PMN-PZT ceramics to increase mechanical quality factor. At the sintering temperature of 95$0^{\circ}C$, the density, dielectric constant($\varepsilon$$_{r}$), electromechanical coupling factor(k$_{p}$), mechanical quality factor(Q$_{m}$) and Curie temperature(T$_{c}$) of 0.1 wt% MnO$_2$ added specimen showed the optimal values of 7.75 g/㎤, 1503, 0.57, 1502, and 337, respectively, for multilayer piezoelectric transformer application.ation.n.
