Thermal reactions in 93% Al2 O3 -7% MgO and 95.8% Al2 O3 -4.2% MgO gels seeded with α-Al2 O3 , MgAl2 O4 , α-Fe2 O3 , and SiO2 , sols were investigated by differential thermal analysis to determine the extent of nucleation catalysis of solid-state reactions. Seeding with α-Al2 O3 lowered the α-Al2 O3 crystallization temperature in these xerogels by 100° to 150°C. Spinel seeds have much less effect on the γ-α transition, and α-Fe2 O3 and SiO2 seeds do not affect it significantly. Isostructural seeding of gels may therefore permit lower ceramic processing temperatures. 相似文献

Composites of β-Ce2 O3 ·11Al2 O3 and tetragonal ZrO2 were fabricated by a reductive atmosphere sintering of mixed powders of CeO2 , ZrO2 (2 mol% Y2 O3 ), and Al2 O3 . The composites had microstructures composed of elongated grains of β-Ce2 O3 ·11Al2 O3 in a Y-TZP matrix. The β-Ce2 O3 ·11Al2 O3 decomposed to α-Al2 O3 and CeO2 by annealing at 1500°C for 1 h in oxygen. The elongated single grain of β-Ce2 O3 ·11Al2 O3 divided into several grains of α-Al2 O3 and ZrO2 doped with Y2 O3 and CeO2 . High-temperature bending strength of the oxygen-annealed α-Al2 O3 composite was comparable to the β-Ce2 O3 ·11Al2 O3 composite before annealing. 相似文献

Nanostructured Al2 O3 powders have been synthesized by combustion of aluminum powder in a microwave oxygen plasma, and characterized by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. The main phase is γ-Al2 O3 , with a small amount of δ-Al2 O3 . The particles are truncated octahedral in shape, with mean particle sizes of 21–24 nm. The effect of reaction chamber pressure on the phase composition and the particle size was studied. The γ-alumina content increases and the mean particle size decreases with decreasing pressure. No α-Al2 O3 appears in the final particles. Electron microscopy studies find that a particle may contain more than one phase. 相似文献

A technique for growing α-Al2 O3 crystals is described in which Na2 O·11Al2 O3 is dissolved in a liquid of composition Na2 O·4TiO2 ·3Al2 O3 . Alpha Al2 O3 is precipitated as Na2 O evaporates from the system; Na2 O·11Al2 O3 serves as a source of Al2 O3 , and Na2 O in the liquid. The content of solids in the mixture is always such that it does not melt completely. The size of the α-Al2 O3 crystals grown is related to the Na2 O content of the composition. Crystals as large as 4000 by 3000 μm in the α-axis direction and 500 μm in the c -axis direction have been grown. 相似文献

In the presence of a fluorine mineralizer, highly aggregated, <5 μm α-Al2 O3 platelet particles form by vapor transport during the thermal transformation of γ-alumina. Platelet aggregation was determined to occur by platelet inter-growth and by edge nucleation on primary α-Al2 03 platelets. The addition of 1010 α-alumina seed particles/cm3 γ–Al2 O3 resulted in the development of discrete particles during the initial stage of transformation. Impingement of the growing platelets during the latter stage of transformation, however, resulted in intergrowth, a process which was not changed by seeding. Particle size distribution broadening was observed to increase with increasing HF and H2 O concentrations because vapor reactant supersaturation increases the degree of edge nucleation. When initially low HF and H2 O concentrations were used in seeded systems, however, essentially aggregate-free α-Al2 O3 platelets of 10–15 μm were obtained. 相似文献

An electroconductive TiN/Al2 O3 nanocomposite was prepared by a selective matrix grain growth method, using a powder mixture of submicrosized α-Al2 O3 , nanosized γ-Al2 O3 , and TiN nanoparticles synthesized through an in situ nitridation process. During sintering, a self-concentration of TiN nanoparticles at the matrix grain boundary occurred, as a result of the selective growth of large α-Al2 O3 matrix grains. Under suitable sintering conditions, a typical interlayer nanostructure with a continuous nanosized TiN interlayer was formed along the Al2 O3 matrix grain boundary, and the electroconducting behavior of the material was significantly improved. Twelve volume percent TiN/Al2 O3 nanocomposite with such an interlayer nanostructure showed an unprecedentedly low resistivity of 8 × 10−3 Ω·cm, which was more than two orders lower than the TiN/Al2 O3 nanocomposite without such an interlayer nanostructure. 相似文献

α - Al2 O3 nanopowders with mean particle sizes of 10, 15, 48, and 80 nm synthesized by the doped α-Al2 O3 seed polyacrylamide gel method were used to sinter bulk Al2 O3 nanoceramics. The relative density of the Al2 O3 nanoceramics increases with increasing compaction pressure on the green compacts and decreasing mean particle size of the starting α-Al2 O3 nanopowders. The densification and fast grain growth of the Al2 O3 nanoceramics occur in different temperature ranges. The Al2 O3 nanoceramics with an average grain size of 70 nm and a relative density of 95% were obtained by a two-step sintering method. The densification and the suppression of the grain growth are achieved by exploiting the difference in kinetics between grain-boundary diffusion and grain-boundary migration. The densification was realized by the slower grain-boundary diffusion without promoting grain growth in second-step sintering. 相似文献

The effect of Cr and Fe in solid solution in γ-Al2 O3 on its rate of conversion to α-Al2 O3 at 1100°C was studied by X-ray diffraction. The δ form of Al2 O3 was the principal intermediate phase produced from both pure γ-Al2 O3 and that containing Fe3+ in solid solution, although addition of Fe greatly reduced crystallinity. Reflectance spectra and magnetic susceptibilities showed that Cr exists as Cr6+ in γ-Al2 O3 and as Cr3+ in α-Al2 O3 , with θ-Al2 O3 as the intermediate phase. The intermediates formed rapidly, and the rates of their conversion to α-Al2 O3 were increased by 2 and 5 wt% additions of Fe and decreased by 2 and 4 wt% additions of Cr. An approximately linear relation observed between α-Al2 O3 formation and decrease in specific surface area was only slightly affected by the added ions. This relation can be explained by a mechanism in which the sintering of δ- or θ-Al2 O3 , within the aggregates of their crystallites, is closely coupled with conversion of cubic to hexagonal close packing of O2- ions by synchro-shear. 相似文献

The possibility of eliminating finger or vermicular growth of α-Al2 O3 particles obtained by calcination of boehmite was examined. Heterogeneous precipitation of boehmite in a well-dispersed θ-Al2 O3 suspension was first prepared, in which the mass ratio of boehmite to θ-crystallite was evaluated to form agglomerates of similar sizes that will form α-Al2 O3 crystallites of <100 nm in diameter. θ- to α-phase transformation of alumina experiences a nucleation and growth mechanism, with the critical size of nucleation being ∼25 nm for θ-Al2 O3 and the size for accomplishment of transformation followed by finger growth being ∼100 nm. Hence, fabricating agglomerates that would form α-Al2 O3 crystallites with sizes <100 nm accompanied with appropriate thermal treatments can be a method for obtaining α-Al2 O3 crystallites free of finger growth. It is found that proper preparation of the agglomerate with appropriate size may initiate a simultaneous and lower temperature θ- to α-Al2 O3 phase transformation for such powder systems, substantially limiting the mass transfer among the newly formed α-Al2 O3 particles. Moreover, α-Al2 O3 crystallites free of finger growth can be obtained. 相似文献

Gradient, porous alumina ceramics were prepared with the characteristics of microsized tabular α-Al2 O3 grains grown on a surface with a fine interlocking feature. The samples were formed by spin-coating diphasic aluminosilicate sol on porous alumina substrates. The sol consisted of nano-sized pseudo-boehmite (AlOOH) and hydrolyzed tetraethyl orthosilicate [Si(OC2 H5 )4 ]. After drying and sintering at 1150°–1450°C, the crystallographic and chemical properties of the porous structures were investigated by analytical electron microscopy. The results show that the formation of tabular α-Al2 O3 grains is controlled by the dissolution of fine Al2 O3 in the diphasic material at the interface. The nucleation and growth of tabular α-Al2 O3 grains proceeds heterogeneously at the Al2 O3 /glass interface by ripening nano-sized Al2 O3 particles. 相似文献

The effect of monovalent cation addition on the γ-Al2 O3 -to-α-Al2 O3 phase transition was investigated by differential thermal analysis, powder X-ray diffractometry, and specific-surface-area measurements. The cations Li+ , Na+ , Ag+ , K+ , Rb+ , and Cs+ were added by an impregnation method, using the appropriate nitrate solution. β-Al2 O3 was the crystalline aluminate phase that formed by reaction between these additives and Al2 O3 in the vicinity of the γ-to-α-Al2 O3 transition temperature, with the exception of Li+ . The transition temperature increased as the ionic radii of the additive increased. The change in specific surface area of these samples after heat treatment showed a trend similar to that of the phase-transition temperature. Thus, Cs+ was concluded to be the most effective of the present monovalent additives for enhancing the thermal stability of γ-Al2 O3 . Because the order of the phase-transition temperature coincided with that of the formation temperature of β-Al2 O3 in these samples, suppression of ionic diffusion in γ-Al2 O3 by the amorphous phase containing the added cations must have played an important role in retarding the transition to α-Al2 O3 . Larger cations suppressed the diffusion reaction more effectively. 相似文献

The rate of ZnA12 O4 formation for binary powder mixtures of ZnO and α-Al2 O3 (dense coarse particles and weak agglomerates of fine powder) fired in air or O2 atmospheres was measured and the microstructures of those systems were observed by scanning electron microscopy. With dispersed dense particles of α-Al2 O3 , the Al2 O3 surfaces were covered with ZnO and the spinel grew into the particles maintaining essentially a constant reaction interface area. Calculations based on geometric measurements and use of Jander's equation gave a similar high activation energy, 354 kJ/mol, which corresponds to the activation energy of volume diffusion of Zn2+ in ZnAl2 O4 . An oxygen atmosphere had no effect. With a matrix of fine α-Al2 O3 powder and dispersed granules of ZnO, a higher reaction rate occurred because of an increase in reaction interface area due to penetration of the powder compact matrix by ZnO vapor, which was enhanced by an O2 atmosphere. The reaction layer grew into the alumina matrix adjoining the ZnO granules with a parabolic rate law. Apparent activation energies below ∼200 kJ/mol were calculated. 相似文献

This paper focused on the effects of various phases of SiO2 additives on the γ-Al2 O3 -to-α-Al2 O3 phase transition. In the differential thermal analysis, the exothermic peak temperature that corresponded to the theta-to-α phase transition was elevated by adding amorphous SiO2 , such as fumed silica and silica gel obtained from the hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate. In contrast, the peak temperature was reduced by adding crystalline SiO2 , such as quartz and cristobalite. Amorphous SiO2 was considered to retard the γ-to-α phase transition by preventing γ-Al2 O3 particles from coming into contact and suppressing heterogeneous nucleation on the γ-Al2 O3 surface. On the other hand, crystalline SiO2 accelerated the α-Al2 O3 transition; thus, this SiO2 may be considered to act as heterogeneous nucleation sites. The structural difference among the various SiO2 additives, especially amorphous and crystalline phases, largely influenced the temperature of γ-Al2 O3 -to-α-Al2 O3 phase transition. 相似文献

In the system ZrO2 -Al2 O3 , cubic ZrO2 solid solutions containing up to 40 mol% Al2 O3 crystallize at low temperatures from amorphous materials prepared by the simultaneous hydrolysis of zirconium and aluminum alkoxides. The values of the lattice parameter, a, increase linearly from 0.5095 to 0.5129 nm with increasing Al2 O3 content. At higher temperatures, the solid solutions transform into tetragonal ZrO2 and α-Al2 O3 . Pure ZrO2 crystallizes in the tetragonal form at 415° to 440°C. 相似文献

Strong and permeable macro-porous α-Al2 O3 membrane supports are made by colloidal filtration of 20 vol% dispersions of α-Al2 O3 with an average particle size of 600 nm. Intact compacts with very good surface quality were obtained at an optimum pH of 9.5 and dosage of 0.2 wt% ammonium aurintricarboxylate (Aluminon), based on dry alumina. The colloidal stability of the aluminon-stabilized slurries is confirmed by ξ potential measurements. Slight sintering of dense-packed α-Al2 O3 compacts was found to result in >67% packing density and a bimodal pore-size distribution as derived from shrinkage behavior and gas adsorption studies. Non-stationary single gas permeation measurements showed improved gas permeability, compared with α-Al2 O3 compacts prepared using powder with a smaller particle size (300 nm). The strength of the disk-shaped alumina compacts within the porosity range of 30%–20% increased from 100 to 300 MPa with a standard deviation of 20 and 50 MPa, respectively. 相似文献

Mechanical mixture of γ-Al2 O3 and amorphous SiO2 , and diphasic Al2 O3 /SiO2 gels of three different compositions were synthesized. They were subjected to heat treatment to various temperatures in the range 900°–1600°C. Qualitative X-ray diffraction data show that these diphasic gels do not crystallize to a combined mixture of θ-Al2 O3 and α-Al2 O3 polymorphs at the intermediate stage, prior to mullite formation. Estimated mullite formation data show that the course of its formation from mixed oxides was different from that of diphasic gels. Results are compared with previous findings and the concept of Al–Si spinel formation in the phase transformation of stoichiometric diphasic gel system is substantiated. 相似文献

The interfacial reaction between Y2 O3 -partially-stabilized ZrO2 and α-Al2 O3 was studied. It was noted that α-Al2 O3 forms inside the periphery of the β-Al2 O3 grains; its formation suggests the loss of Na2 O from the p-Al2 O3 , either by evaporation or by dissolution in the ZrO2 matrix. The presence of Na2 ZrO3 is suspected. 相似文献

In the system TiO2 —Al2 O3 , TiO2 (anatase, tetragonal) solid solutions crystallize at low temperatures (with up to ∼ 22 mol% Al2 O3 ) from amorphous materials prepared by the simultaneous hydrolysis of titanium and aluminum alkoxides. The lattice parameter a is relatively constant regardless of composition, whereas parameter c decreases linearly with increasing Al2 O3 . At higher temperatures, anatase solid solutions transform into TiO2 (rutile) with the formation of α-Al2 O3 . Powder characterization is studied. Pure anatase crystallizes at 220° to 360°C, and the anatase-to-rutile phase transformation occurs at 770° to 850°C. 相似文献

The formation process of barium hexaaluminate (BaO 6Al2 O3 ) from BaCO3 /γ-Al2 O3 powders or hydrolyzed alkoxides was studied by analytical electron microscopy. Barium hexaaluminate is produced by a two-step solid-state reaction from BaCO3 and Al2 O3 via formation of BaO·Al2 O3 . Marked grain growth and inclusion of nonequilibrium phase were inevitable in this powder mixture process. However, in an alkoxide-derived precursor, homogeneous mixing of components is attained and hence the formation of BaO·6Al2 O3 proceeds readily. Powders obtained by this latter route consisted of fine planar particles with a uniform size and retained a large surface area (20.2 m2 /g) even after heating at 1300°C. Electron diffraction results implied that suppression of crystal growth along the c axis is the reason for the large surface area of BaO·6Al2 O3 . 相似文献

Single-crystal and polycrystalline films of Mg-Al2 O4 and MgFe2 O4 were formed by two methods on cleavage surfaces of MgO single crystals. In one procedure, aluminum was deposited on MgO by vacuum evaporation. Subsequent heating in air at about 510°C formed a polycrystalline γ-Al2 O8 film. Above 540°C, the γ-Al2 O, and MgO reacted to form a single-crystal MgAl2 O4 film with {001} MgAl2 O4 ‖{001} MgO. Above 590°C, an additional layer of MgAl2 O4 , which is polycrystalline, formed between the γ-Al2 O3 and the single-crystal spinel. Polycrystalline Mg-Al2 O4 formed only when diffusion of Mg2+ ions proceeded into the polycrystalline γ-Al2 O3 region. Corresponding results were obtained for Mg-Fe2 O4 . MgAl2 O4 films were also formed on cleaved MgO single-crystal substrates by direct evaporation, using an Al2 O3 crucible as a source. Very slow deposition rates were used with source temperatures of ∼1350°C and substrate temperatures of ∼800°C. Departures from single-crystal character in the films may arise through temperature gradients in the substrate. 相似文献
