Abstract: | In this study, nano-grained Gd2Zr2O7 (NGZO) ceramic with a high relative density was prepared by a novel cold sintering process (CSP) assisted by microwave sintering (CSP-MS). The CSP with water as the liquid phase at 280 °C yielded nano-grained ceramic with a relative density of 71.5%. NGZO with a high relative density of 97.1% and average grain size of 73 nm was obtained by subsequent microwave sintering of the cold-sintered sample at 1300 °C. Therefore, CSP-MS is feasible in preparing dense NGZO ceramics with small grain sizes at relatively low sintering temperatures. |
