(M = Ni, Cu, Zn) were synthesized by the modified Pechini method, and their structure and microstructure were characterized by XRD and SEM. Oxygen content, electrical resistivity and Thermal Expansion Coefficient (TEC) were evaluated in air between room temperature and 900 °C. The high-temperature properties of these perovskites were compared with those of Co containing Ba
