The results indicate that the addition of Co^3＋ enhances the mechanical quality factor Q^3＋ significantly, whereas the dissipation factor tanδ has a minimum value at x = 3.5.

The present 0.92（Bio.aNao.5） TiO3-0.08BaTiO3＋3.5 moi% Co^3＋ ceramics exhibit good performance with mechanical quality factor Qm = 910, piezoelectric constant d33 = 106pC/N, planar electromechanical coupling kp =10% and dissipation factor tanδ = 1.1% at 1 kHz.
