In this study, Bi 0.5+0.5x Na 0.5¹0.5x Ti 1¹x Mn 0.75x Mo 0.25x O 3 (BNTMM) ceramics were synthesized and the influence on their crystal structure and ferroelectric properties of the Bi, Mn and Mo substitutions for Na and Ti was investigated. Based on variations in the lattice parameters, the solubility limit was determined to be x = 0.0075. From crystal structural refinement in the single phase region, it was found that the Bi, Mn and Mo substitutions for Na and Ti may exert an influence on the covalency of BO (B = Ti, Mn, and Mo) and (Bi,Na)O bonds, leading to a structural distortion of BO 6 octahedra and (Bi,Na)O 12 polyhedra, which may affect the remnant polarization (P r ). The highest P r value of 40.3¯C/cm 2 was obtained for x = 0.0075 and the corresponding coercive field E c was 70.3 kV/cm.
