Abstract
A KNbO—NaNbOpiezoelectric porcelain composition which exhibits a larger piezoelectric constant than those of conventional ones and does not have any secondary phase transition point in the neighborhood of room temperature (10 to 40° C.), that is, a piezoelectric porcelain composition represented by the general formula: (1-y-z-w)(KNa)NbO+yLiNbO+zSrTiO+wBiFeO, wherein (KNa)NbOrepresents potassium sodium niobate; LiNbOrepresents lithium niobate; SrTiOrepresents strontium titanate; and BiFeOrepresents bismuth ferrate; with the proviso that 0.4<x<0.6, 0<y≦0.1, 0<z<0.1, 0<w<0.09, and 0.03<y+z+w≦0.12.
