abstract = {Stoichiometric potassium niobate (KNbO3) and materials with
K- and Nb excess show marked differences in sintering
behaviour and microstructure. Shrinkage is shifted to lower
temperatures in material with K-excess and to higher
temperatures in material with Nb-excess compared to the
stoichiometric KNbO3. The stoichiometric material densified
to 4.36 g/cm3, whereas the densities of the
off-stoichiometric materials remained lower. Abnormal grain
growth leading to grains up to 500 μm in size was observed
for stoichiometric KNbO3. K-excess KNbO3 shows cuboid grain
shape with size between 20 and 60 μm. In the Nb-excess
KNbO3 the grains remain small. Approaches to improve the
densification of the KNbO3 materials are discussed by
investigating processing variations specific for each
composition. The objective of our work is to analyze the
interrelations between stoichiometry, materials
characteristics and processing stability of alkaline niobate
ceramics. The results on KNbO3 mark a starting point for
investigations on complex high performance systems.},
