Sr4R2Ti4Nb6O30 (R=Sm and Eu) tungsten bronze ceramics were prepared, and the dielectric properties and ferroelectric transition were investigated together with the crystal structure. A ferroelectric transition peak and a low temperature dielectric relaxation were observed from the curve of permittivity versus temperature during heating process for both ceramics. The ferroelectric transition indicated large thermal hysteresis during the heating and cooling cycles for both ceramics, where the ferroelectric transition peak disappeared during the cooling process, and the low temperature dielectric relaxation was obviously enhanced. Moreover, extremely large depression of the Curie-Weiss temperature (T-0) was observed in the present ceramics. These abnormal features were associated with the complex tetragonal tungsten bronze structure with two ferroelectrically active cations over two sets of sites and weak superstructure change from incommensurate to commensurate on cooling. The low temperature dielectric relaxation was due to the oxygen octahedron rotation in the ab plane and the possible compositional variations in the microscale.
