Abstract
The effect of minor additions of barium oxide and titania
on the formation of forsterite from pure raw materials and
commercial grade raw materials was studied at 1450°C. It
was observed that Ti02 was more effective than BaO in the
formation of forsterite phase. The addition of 2-3 wt% of
each additive produced an optimum value of density and
dielectric constant of the forsterite ceramics.
