BaTiO3 crystals were studied by means of the acoustic emission during thermal cycling through 300-700 K range. In addition to pronounced acoustic emission at the ferroelectric phase transition temperature Tc = 400 K, also nucleation of nanoclusters was detected at somewhat smeared Burns temperature Td = 530÷570 K and their local freezing at T* = 506 K. Bias electric field shifts the T* and Tc linearly up, T* more steeply than Tc. Except for its much faster cluster dynamics than that of classical relaxor materials, BaTiO3 shows many relaxor-like features in its paraelectric phase.
