In this work, we present a compositional and electrical study of mixed presinterized systems following a solid-state and sol-gel rule in order to achieve mixed morphotropic PZT compositions with other compositions in different proportions. A complete characterization of the electrical response of the different PZT compositions is presented, as is the degree of reactivity of the powder according to the route followed and the capacity to mix phases indicating the greater or lesser miscibility between compositions.
