Abstract: In this study, 0.95MgTiO3-0.05CaTiO3 powders are synthesized via a high-temperature solid-phase reaction, utilizing TiO2,CaCO3,and Mg(OH)2 as the primary reactants. Guided by the phase diagram, sintering aids comprising Li2B4O7-Al2O3, which possess a low melting point, are formulated to facilitate the low-temperature sintering process of 0.95MgTiO3-0.05CaTiO3 microwave dielectric ceramics. The study comprehensively investigates the influence of the synthesis temperature (900-1100 ℃) on the phase composition of calcium magnesium titanate powder, as well as the effects of sintering temperature (1175-1250 ℃) and aid content (1%-5%, mass fraction, the same below) on the density, microstructure, dielectric constant, quality factor, and frequency-temperature coefficient of calcium magnesium titanate ceramics. The results indicates that 0.95MgTiO3-0.05CaTiO3 powders could be successfully synthesized at a reaction temperature of 1100 ℃. The incorporation of sintering aids effectively reduced the sintering temperature of the ceramics. However, excessive addition (5%) resulted in decreased density and dielectric properties. Optimal performance is achieved with an aid content of 3% and a sintering temperature of 1225 ℃, producing 0.95MgTiO3-0.05CaTiO3 ceramic with a relative density of 98.70%, a dielectric constant of 20.38, a quality factor of 37240 GHz, and a frequency-temperature coefficient of -9.6×10-6 ℃-1.
