In this article, the effect of dwell time (2–48 h) during isothermal sintering at 1520 °C on the grain size, density and crystal structure of (Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Zr0.1Ti0.9)O3 is demonstrated. All ceramics exhibited the phase transition from orthorhombic to mixed orthorhombic and tetragonal phases between 12 and 24 h dwell time. The piezoelectric, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of these ceramics show a strong correlation with grain size in the range of 16.5–44.5 μm. Nearly dense microstructure (93.1–94.3% t.d.) was maintained during entire dwell time range without sacrificing much of its functional properties. Increasing grain size caused a little decrease in d33* piezoelectric constant from 480 pC/N to 460 pC/N while mechanical quality factor (Qm) increased from 62 to 136. Diffusivity coefficient (γ) ranges between 1.46 and 1.55 which indicates a normal ferroelectric behavior.
