The effects of BaCu (B 2 O 5 ) doping on sintering characteristics, phase constitute, and dielectric properties of MgZrNb 2 O 8 ceramics were investigated. Results indicated that a small amount of BaCu (B 2 O 5 ) can effectively lower the sintering temperature of MgZrNb 2 O 8 ceramics from 1300°C to 1100°C due to liquid phase sintering effect. However, the second phase of Ba 3 Nb 8 O 21 appeared when the addition of BaCu (B 2 O 5 ) exceeds 2wt%. Typically, 2wt% BaCu (B 2 O 5 )‐added MgZrNb 2 O 8 ceramics sintered at 1100°C for 4 h could reach dense structure and exhibited microwave dielectric properties of ε r = 25.96, Q×f = 65,064 GH z (f = 8.68GHz), and τ f = −47 ppm/°C. Moreover, this ceramic has a chemical compatibility with Ag70/Pd30 electrodes, making it a very promising candidate material for the application of microwave multilayer electronic components.
