Phase formation and dielectric properties of the compositions in the s
ystem [Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O-3](1-x)-[Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O-3](x) were investigate
d as possible materials for multilayer ceramic capacitors, The formati
on of the phase with perovskite structure and dielectric properties of
ceramics at room temperature in the entire composition range are pres
ented, The undesirable pyrochlore phase can be suppressed up to x = 0.
