SUMMARY

Barium Titanate is a widely used ceramic dielectric material, primarily available in powdered form ranging from nanometers to micrometers. The transition from powder to a usable dielectric material for capacitors occurs through sintering or by suspending the powder in a binding polymer. Sintering can impose limitations on the size of capacitor plates, which may restrict applications in large capacitors, particularly in electric vehicles. Understanding these production methods is crucial for optimizing the performance of Barium Titanate in various applications.

Hello all,

I know Barium Titanate is a common ceramic dielectric material. However, the methods of production seems to result in a powdered form of this substance, and most of the commercially available forms seem to be limited to powders of varying sizes from nanometers to micrometers; how does this substance end up as a dielectric material for a larger capacitor? (While maintaining its uniquely high K, that is) Is it through sintering, or through suspension in a binding polymer?

Also, if it is through sintering, does that cause a limitation in the sizes of the plates, potentially affecting its application in very large capacitors for, say, electric vehicles?

Thanks.
