Similar to BaTiO3, incongruent dissolution would be expected when the KNN particles were cold sintered because of their similar perovskite structure of ABO3, where A-site cations have higher leaching rate than B-site. Meanwhile, deduced from the previous chemical stability study of KNN and relevant binary compounds in aqueous environment, potassium cations in A-site of perovskite are preferentially leached out, and the faster leaching rate of K+ ions might precipitate into K-Nb-O compound and recrystallize on the surface of KNN particles.[25, 26] One can predict that microstructures and properties KNN ceramics would be greatly affected after cold sintering due to the segregation of composition and the uneven leaching rate of A-site cations. In this study, pure KNN ceramics were prepared by cold sintering assisted sintering process, and the effects of CSAS on the composition, microstructure and electrical properties of KNN ceramics were carefully studied.
