Lead-free piezoceramics: great potential for medical applications

CeramTec, the high-performance ceramics specialist, has developed a proprietary bismuth sodium titanate-barium titanate (BNT-BT) based piezoceramic that offers similar performance to conventional lead zirconate titanate (PZT) piezoceramics for many applications, but with one major advantage: it does not contain lead. This is particularly exciting for the medical field, where lead-free piezo can provide an alternative
