With a view to developing a new process for the production of metallic titanium (Ti) powder, the preform reduction process (PRP) based on the calciothermic reduction of Ti concentrates or ore (TiO 2 ) was investigated in this study. A Ti feed preform was fabricated at room temperature by casting and drying a prepared slurry that constituted a mixture of Ti
Lead titanate, PbTiO 3, first reported to be ferroelectric in 1950, has a similar structure to BaTiO 3, but with a significantly higher Curie point (T 0 =490 °C). Pure lead titanate is difficult to fabricate in bulk form (Jaffe et al., 1971).When cooled through the Curie point, the ∼2% volumetric expansion associated with the cubic–tetragonal phase transition causes the ceramic to fracture.
