Abstract: In this study, lead-free new sol-gel composite, Bi <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">4</sub> Ti <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> O <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">12</sub> (BiT)/SrTiO <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> (ST) was developed. 100μm thick films were fabricated on 3mm thick titanium substrates by sol-gel spray technique. Polarization process was carried out at room temperature and 400°C. Samples were set onto a hot plate and ultrasonic response in pulse-echo mode was recorded by a digital oscilloscope from room temperature to 500°C. As a result, each samples showed reflected wave at 500°C. Therefore, BiT/ST sol-gel composite have high temperature endurance up to 500°C. In addition, BiT/ST films was able to polarize at room temperature.
