Abstract
A new method for the fabrication of ceramic-matrix piezocomposites (CMC) ceramics/ceramics has been developed. Samples of piezoactive PZT/PZT composites with a mass concentration of components from 0 to 50% have been obtained. The study of microstructural and gravimetric features, as well as the dielectric properties of CMC, has been carried out. Finite element modeling and experimental study of CMC properties in the region of dielectric percolation transition have been performed. It is shown that the developed method for manufacturing CMC provides the formation of microhomogeneous composite structures with a uniform distribution of ceramic filler particles in a microporous piezoceramic matrix without the formation of transition regions and additional crystalline phases.
