To obtain a method of producing a high-density lead zirconium titanate-based sintered body having uniform crystalline phases and containing a large amount of PbO, provided is a method of producing a lead zirconium titanate-based sintered body, including: producing a pre-sintered body by sintering raw material powder of lead zirconium titanate having a stoichiometric composition at a temperature of 900° C. or more and 1,200° C. or less; pulverizing the pre-sintered body; producing lead-excessive mixed powder by adding PbO powder to powder obtained by pulverizing the pre-sintered body; and sintering the lead-excessive mixed powder at a temperature lower than the sintering temperature of the pre-sintered body. Because the sintering process is divided into two stages, a high-density (e.g., 95% or more) PZT sintered body constituted only of PZT having a stoichiometric composition in which PbZrO3, PbTiO3, ZrO2, TiO2, PbO, and other intermediate compounds are absent, and excessive PbO can be obtained. |
