A new group of tungsten bronze family Na{sub 2}Pb{sub 2}Eu{sub 2}W{sub 2}Ti{sub 4}X{sub 4}O{sub 30} (X = Nb, Ta) having all the valence elements (I-VI) were prepared by a high-temperature solid-state reaction technique. The formations of the compounds were confirmed by X-ray diffraction technique with an orthorhombic structure. Surface morphology of the compounds was studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Studies of dielectric properties ({epsilon}{sub r} and tan {delta}) of the above compounds at different frequencies in a wide temperature range (300-700 K) with an impedance analyzer exhibit a ferroelectric phase transition at 580 and 394 K for Na{sub 2}Pb{sub 2}Eu{sub 2}W{sub 2}Ti{sub 4}Nb{sub 4}O{sub 30} and Na{sub 2}Pb{sub 2}Eu{sub 2}W{sub 2}Ti{sub 4}Ta{sub 4}O{sub 30}, respectively. Ferroelectric properties of these compounds were confirmed with polarization (hysteresis) study.
