Ferroelectric materials are substances that exhibit a permanent electric polarization, which can be altered by an external electric field. Their distinctive electrical properties make them widely utilized in various applications, including piezoelectric devices, memory storage, and advanced capacitors.
The primary types of ferroelectric materials include barium titanate, lead zirconate titanate, lead titanate, and others. Barium titanate, classified as an inorganic ferroelectric material, is widely utilized in the production of capacitors, especially multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). The material compositions encompass both inorganic ferroelectric materials and organic ferroelectric materials, applied in various devices such as ceramic capacitors, PTC thermistors, and others. Ferroelectric materials are employed across diverse industries, including electronics, telecommunications, healthcare, automotive, and others.
