Abstract
A large number of lead-free BaTiO3-based ceramics were prepared. Depending on the
composition, some of them exhibit a relaxor behaviour whose characteristics were related to the type of
ionic substitution and to the substitution rate. The relaxor effect is all the more favoured as the
composition deviates more from BaTiO3 and as the substitution is heterovalent in the 6-coordination
number crystallographic site. Some of these materials could prove valuable (dielectrics for capacitors and
actuators) because they are environment-friendly.
