Mechanical bending strength of (Bi0.5Na0.5) TiO3-based lead-Free piezoelectric ceramics

(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3 [BNT] is expected as one of candidate lead-free materials because these ceramics show relatively good high-power piezoelectric properties. In this study, we tried to understand the bending strength and fracture behavior of the BNT-based ceramics. To measure the bending strength, a t...
