Addition of α-Fe2 O3 seed particles to alkoxide-derived boehmite sols resulted in a 10-fold increase in isothermal rate constants for the transformation of γ- to α-Al2 O3 . Changes in porosity and surface area with sintering temperature showed no effect of seeding on coarsening of the transition alumina gels, but the 200-fold decrease in surface area associated with transformation to α-Al2 O3 occurred ∼ 100°C lower in seeded gels compared with unseeded materials. As a result of high nucleation frequency and reduced microstructure coarsening, fully transformed seeded alumina retained specific surface areas >22 m2 /g and exhibited narrow pore size distributions, permitting development of fully dense, submicrometer α-Al2 O3 at ∼ 1200°C. 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

Composite powders, prepared by coating coarse ZrO2 particles with fine Al2 O3 powder using a chemical precipitation technique, were compacted and sintered freely at a constant heating rate of 4°C/min to ∼1600°C. Composites containing up to ∼30 vol% inclusions were sintered to nearly full density under the same conditions used for the unreinforced matrix. Furthermore, the sintering kinetics were not influenced significantly by the inclusion volume fraction. The sinterability of the composites formed from the coated powders was significantly better than that for similar composites formed from mechanically mixed powders. The present data provide a further demonstration that the use of coated powders may have widespread applicability for the fabrication, by free sintering, of dense ceramic particulate composites. 相似文献

The combined effect of rapid sintering by spark-plasma-sintering (SPS) technique and mechanical milling of γ-Al2 O3 nanopowder via high-energy ball milling (HEBM) on the microstructural development and mechanical properties of nanocrystalline alumina matrix composites toughened by 20 vol% silicon carbide whiskers was investigated. SiCw /γ-Al2 O3 nanopowders processed by HEBM can be successfully consolidated to full density by SPS at a temperature as low as 1125°C and still retain a near-nanocrystalline matrix grain size (∼118 nm). However, to densify the same nanopowder mixture to full density without the benefit of HEBM procedure, the required temperature for sintering was higher than 1200°C, where one encountered excessive grain growth. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results indicated that HEBM did not lead to the transformation of γ-Al2 O3 to α-Al2 O3 of the starting powder but rather induced possible residual stress that enhances the densification at lower temperatures. The SiCw /HEBMγ-Al2 O3 nanocomposite with grain size of 118 nm has attractive mechanical properties, i.e., Vickers hardness of 26.1 GPa and fracture toughness of 6.2 MPa·m1/2 . 相似文献

Cr2 O3 and ZrO2 were mixed in various ratios and pressed to form compacts, which were then sintered in carbon powder. Compacts with >30 wt% Cr2 O3 were sintered to densities >98% of true density at 1500°C. This method of sintering in carbon powder can be used to prepare very dense Cr2 O3 -ZrO2 ceramics at a relatively low temperature, (∼1500°C) without additives. 相似文献

The effects of heating rate on the sintering behavior and the dielectric properties of Ba0.7 Sr0.3 TiO3 ceramics prepared by boron-containing liquid-phase sintering were investigated. When 0.5 wt% B2 O3 was added to Ba0.7 Sr0.3 TiO3 , sintering was achieved at ∼1150°C, and the overdoped B2 O3 did not form an adequate amount of liquid phase or volatilize; it remained in the samples and formed a secondary phase. A transition broadening was observed as the heating rate increased. As the heating rate increased, the Curie temperature increased and the maximum dielectric constant ( k max ) at the Curie temperature decreased. This result is attributable to a decrease in the diffuseness parameter (δ) and the tetragonality ( c / a ). 相似文献

Porous Cr3 C2 grains (∼300 to 500 μm) with ∼10 wt% of Cr2 O3 were prepared by heating a mixture of MgCr2 O4 grains and graphite powder at 1450° to 1650°C for 2 h in an Al2 O3 crucible covered by an Al2 O3 lid with a hole in the center. The porous Cr3 C2 grains exhibited a three-dimensional network skeleton structure. The mean open pore diameter and the specific surface area of the porous grains formed at 1600°C for 2 h were ∼3.5 (μm and ∼6.7 m2 /g, respectively. The present work investigated the morphology and the formation conditions of the porous Cr3 C2 grains, and this paper will discuss the formation mechanism of those grains in terms of chemical thermodynamics. 相似文献

This study examined pressure consolidation of amorphous Al2 O3 –15 mol% Y2 O3 powders prepared by co-precipitation and spray pyrolysis. The two amorphous powders had similar true densities and crystallization sequences. Uniaxial hot pressing was carried out at 450°–600°C with a moderate pressure of 750 MPa. The co-precipitated powder could be hot pressed to a maximum relative density of 98% and remained amorphous. Pressure adversely affected the densification of the spray-pyrolyzed powder by favoring an early crystallization of γ-Al2 O3 phase at 580°C. Plastic deformation of the amorphous phase is believed to be responsible for the large densification of the amorphous powders. 相似文献

We report here the fabrication of transparent Sc2 O3 ceramics via vacuum sintering. The starting Sc2 O3 powders are pyrolyzed from a basic sulfate precursor (Sc(OH)2.6 (SO4 )0.2 ·H2 O) precipitated from scandium sulfate solution with hexamethylenetetramine as the precipitant. Thermal decomposition behavior of the precursor is studied via differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and elemental analysis. Sinterability of the Sc2 O3 powders is studied via dilatometry. Microstructure evolution of the ceramic during sintering is investigated via field emission scanning electron microscopy. The best calcination temperature for the precursor is 1100°C, at which the resultant Sc2 O3 powder is ultrafine (∼85 nm), well dispersed, and almost free from residual sulfur contamination. With this reactive powder, transparent Sc2 O3 ceramics having an average grain size of ∼9 μm and showing a visible wavelength transmittance of ∼60–62% (∼76% of that of Sc2 O3 single crystal) have been fabricated via vacuum sintering at a relatively low temperature of 1700°C for 4 h. 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

Fine A12 O3 powder was prepared by the gas-phase oxidation of aluminum acetyl-acetonate. The reaction products were amorphous material at 600° and 800°C, γ-Al2 O3 at 1000° and 1200°C, and δ-Al2 O3 at 1400°C. The powders consisted of spherical particles from 10 to 80 nm in diameter; particle size increased with increasing reaction temperature and concentration of chelate in the gas. 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

Tetragonal zirconia doped with 3 mol% Er2 O3 was prepared by the gel-precipitation wet-chemical method. The compaction response of ultrafine (∼8.5 nm), calcined, deagglomerated powders was studied. Initial sintering was studied using both isothermal and nonisothermal techniques, and an activation energy of 270 ± 40 kJ/mol was obtained; therefore, grain-boundary diffusion was probably the predominant mechanism in the sintering stage. The microstructural development in the high-temperature-aged, sintered samples and its effect on density and mechanical properties were also studied. A theoretically dense body of tetragonal zirconia solid solution of 3 mol% Er2 O3 –ZrO2 , obtained from sintering below 1400°C, was translucent. 相似文献

The effect of oxygen partial pressure, ranging from 0.001 to 1.0 atm, and temperature, in the range of 930°–955°C, on the solid-state sintering kinetics of the superconducting ceramic YBa2 Cu3 O7-δ has been studied. Isothermal compaction rates between 930° and 955°C reached a maximum at some critical PO2 (PO2 CRIT ), with decreasing rates both above and below this oxygen partial pressure. This behavior was not observed for YBa2 Cu3 O7-δ sintered at 960°C, when a liquid phase is present. The activation energy for sintering above PO2 CRIT has been estimated to be ∼190 kJ/mol, whereas below PO2 CRIT it was found to be ∼130 kJ/mol. The oxygen ion diffusion was considered to be the rate-determining step above PO2 CRIT , while it is hypothesized that lattice strain caused by the formation of oxygen ion vacancies below PO2 CRIT affected the rate of sintering. 相似文献

MgAl2 O4 (MA) spinel powder was synthesized by heating an equimolar composition of MgO and Al2 O3 in LiCl, KCl, or NaCl. The synthesis temperature can be decreased from >1300°C (required by the conventional solid–solid reaction process) to ∼1100°C in LiCl, or to ∼1150°C in KCl or NaCl. The molten salt synthesized MA powder was pseudomorphic and retained, to a large extent, the size and morphology of the original Al2 O3 raw material, indicating that a "template formation mechanism" plays an important role in the synthesis process. 相似文献

High-temperature piezoelectric ceramics based on W6+ -doped Bi4 Ti3 O12 (W-BIT) were prepared by both the conventional mixing oxides and the chemical coprecipitation methods. Sintering was carried out between 800° and 1150°C in air. A rapid densification, >99% of the theoretical density (rhoth ) at 900°C/2 h, took place in the chemically prepared W6+ -doped Bi4 Ti3 O12 ceramics, whereas conventionally prepared BIT-based materials achieved a lower maximum density, ∼94% of rhoth , at higher temperature (1050°C). The microstructure study revealed a platelike morphology in both materials. Platelike grains were larger in the conventionally prepared W-BIT-based materials. The sintering behavior could be related both to the agglomeration state of the calcined powders and to the enlargement of the platelets at high temperature. The W6+ -doped BIT materials showed an electrical conductivity value 2-3 orders of magnitude lower than undoped samples. The electrical conductivity increased exponentially with the aspect ratio of the platelike grains. The addition of excess TiO2 produced a further decrease of the electrical conductivity. 相似文献

The reaction sintering of equimolar mixtures of ZnO and A12 O3 powders was investigated as a function of primary processing parameters such as the temperature, heating rate, green density, and particle size. The powder mixtures were prepared by two different methods. In one method, the ZnO and A12 O3 powders were ball-milled. In the other method, the ZnO powder was chemically precipitated onto the A12 O3 particles dispersed in a solution of zinc chloride. The sintering characteristics of the compacted powders prepared by each method were compared with those for a prereacted, single-phase powder of zinc aluminate, ZnAl2 O4 . The chemical reaction between ZnO and A12 O3 occurred prior to densification of the powder compact and was accompanied by fairly large expansion. The mixing procedure had a significant effect on the densification rate during reaction sintering. The densification rate of the compact formed from the ball-milled powder was strongly inhibited compared to that for the single-phase ZnAl2 O4 powder. However, the densification rate of the compact formed from the chemically precipitated mixture was almost identical to that for the ZnAl2 O4 powder. The difference in sintering between the ball-milled mixture and the chemically precipitated mixture is interpreted in terms of differences in the microstructural uniformity of the initial powder compacts resulting from the different preparation procedures. 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

Aluminum nitride (AlN) powders were synthesized by gas reduction–nitridation of γ-Al2 O3 using NH3 and C3 H8 as the reactant gases. AlN was identified in the products synthesized at 1100°–1400°C for 120 min in the NH3 –C3 H8 gas flow confirming that AlN can be formed by the gas reduction–nitridation of γ-Al2 O3 . The products synthesized at 1100°C for 120 min contained unreacted γ-Al2 O3 . The 27 A1 MAS NMR spectra show that Al–N bonding in the product increases with increasing reaction temperature, the tetrahedral AlO4 resonance decreasing prior to the disappearance of the octahedral AlO6 resonance. This suggests that the tetrahedral AlO4 sites of the γ-Al2 O3 are preferentially nitrided than the AlO6 sites. AlN nanoparticles were directly formed from γ-Al2 O3 at low temperature because of this preferred nitridation of AlO4 sites in the reactant. AlN nanoparticles are formed by gas reduction–nitridation of γ-Al2 O3 not only because the reaction temperature is sufficiently low to restrict grain growth, but also because γ-Al2 O3 contains both AlO4 and AlO6 sites, by contrast with α-Al2 O3 which contains only AlO6 . 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
