Abstract

Nanocrystalline transition alumina tape casts were used as interlayers to join conventional alumina ceramic pellets. The joining experiments were performed by hot pressing at 1200–1300 °C under uniaxial pressures of 55 and 80 MPa for 1- and 5-h durations, with and without a nanocrystalline interlayer. Successful joints were enabled only above 1250 °C in the presence of the interlayer. Generally, the joint 4-point bending strength increased with the increase in joining temperature, pressure, and duration. The average bending strength of the interface joined at 1250 °C was 245 ± 65 MPa compared to the pellet strength of 268 MPa. Postjoining heat treatments at 1400 °C for 3 h caused reduction in the joint strength. The interlayer at the joint exhibited homogeneous and crack-free microstructure. The changes in the joint strength were discussed with respect to the densification and grain growth behavior of the nanocrystalline interlayer.
