ABSTRACT
The inter-granular-Nano porous 0.65PMN-0.35PT ceramic abbreviated as “PMNT were fabricated for the first time by introducing pore forming agent multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), the thermal analysis of Nano tube, and the effect of MWCNT ratio on their density, phase analysis, microstructure were investigated. the complete burnout of the MWCNT as pore forming agent was about 850℃. The ideal sintering procedure of PMNT ceramic was arranged in agreement with thermo gravimetric reading of Nano material. XRD test indicated that MWCNT as Nano voids shaping factor did not influence on PMNT ceramic crystallographic structure. The porosity of PMNT ceramic 24% more than that of pure sample while the density difference between dense and porous was very low ~1.53 g/cm3 at a fixed MWCNT addition.
Keywords: 0.65PMN-0.35PT, Nano Porous ceramic, MWCNT, sintering, FESEM and XRD.
