A kind of aqueous based suspensions of lead lanthanum zirconnate titanate (PLZT) was developed for direct ink writing (DIW) assembly. Piezoelectric ceramic woodpile structures with diameter of 315-470μm were fabricated from these inks by using DIW. The preparation of aqueous based piezoelectric inks, the principle of DIW and the sintering process were systematically discussed. The ink with solids volume fraction over 70% by 1 day aging reveals shear-thinning behavior and proper viscoelastic properties, which ensures a feasible extrusion in the whole shaping process. The PLZT samples sintered at varying temperatures between 1150 oC and 1250 oC for 2h or 4 h in either air or a lead-rich atmosphere yielded various microstructures observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Choosing the optimum sintering condition, the sintered products were densified with relative density exceed 98%. The test of X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis reveals that the main phase of sintered samples is rhombohedral Pb0.93La0.07(Zr0.65Ti0.35)0.9825O3. The direct ink writing technique has advantages of good design ability and rapid forming capability, which opens up a potential route for the design and fabrication of piezoelectric devices. |
