Fiber Dispersed Porous Alumina Sintered under Direct High Gas Pressure for High Thermal Shock Resistant Application
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Fiber dispersed porous alumina ceramics were produced by a direct high gas pressure sintering method. The produced materials exhibited relative densities of 75–85%, high bending strength and good thermal shock resistance. The alumina ceramics were characterized by lower closed porosity and higher open porosity. These characters strengthen the thermal shock resistance of porous ceramics. This high gas pressure sintering by the direct high gas pressure sintering method densifies only bridge parts of alumina ceramics which support pores. This process is concluded to be effective to produce materials with higher strength, better thermal shock resistance and higher open porosity.
