In Table 1, (Pb 1-x Sr x ) (Zr y Ti 1-y )
The characteristics of the O 3 + zwt% Sb 2 O 3 +0.05 wt% MnO 2 system are shown. The displacement of the actuator is proportional to the piezoelectric strain constant of the material. No. It can be seen from the data of 1 to 5 that the piezoelectric strain constant is increased by replacing a part of Pb with Sr. If the substitution amount of Sr is less than 2 mol% of Pb, the effect is small, and the piezoelectric strain constant −d 31 is small as 150 × 10 −12 m / V or less, which is unsuitable as a piezoelectric material for actuators. If the amount of substitution exceeds 10 mol%, the Curie temperature will decrease, making it unsuitable for high temperature applications of 200 ° C. or higher. N
o. From 6 to 10, it is understood that addition of Sb 2 O 3 has the same effect as substitution of Sr. In addition, No. From 11 to 16, y is in the range of 0.52 ≦ y ≦ 0.59 and −d 31 is 150 ×.
It can be seen that can ensure a large value of more than 10 @ 12 m / V.

[Table 3] As is clear from Table 3 outside the present invention, it can be seen that the electrical resistivity increases by about two digits by adding a small amount of Mn. In particular, when the amount of Mn added in the present invention is 0.01 to 0.5% by weight in terms of MnO 2 , the electric resistivity is large and -d 31 is large, and the piezoelectric ceramic composition is most suitable for the actuator, especially the laminated piezoelectric element. It turns out that it is a thing. If the amount of Mn added is less than 0.01 wt% in terms of MnO 2 , the effect of adding Mn is insufficient and the electrical resistivity does not increase. on the other hand,
When the amount of Mn added exceeds 0.5 wt% in terms of MnO 2 , the relative permittivity ε T 33 and the electromechanical coupling coefficient K P are remarkably lowered, and the piezoelectric strain constant −d 31 becomes too small.
