01 Description
02 Key features and benefits
•
•
•
Lowest batch to batch variation in the industry
Stable material with consistent performance
Customised or standard designs
Pz34 is modified lead titanate exhibiting a large
electromechanical anisotropy, low dielectric constant
and properties which are very stable with time,
temperature, and frequency. In contrast to other
commercial lead titanates, Pz34 has an extremely small
and uniform grain size. Pz34 is furthermore significantly
more corrosion stable than other similar materials due
to its unique chemical composition.
•
•
Large electromechanical anisotropy
Low dielectric constant
Repeatable performance
The main focus through our entire production process is to
provide materials and components with the highest
possible reproducibility of properties and parameters and
to obtain the lowest aging rates in the industry.
03 Applications
•
•
•
•
Single element medical transducers
High-frequency ultrasonic transducers
Pyroelectric sensors
Our materials have a variation of ±5% for all parameters.
This reduces the requirements for impedance matching,
frequency tuning and dimensioning of the housing
meaning fewer rejects and lower costs.
Low-frequency ultrasonics, where cross-coupling
from radial modes must be avoided
Customised solutions
We have more than 60 years of experience in the
production of advanced piezoelectric ceramics. Our
team has extensive expertise in customising designs to
match the customer’s needs.
