  • The defect structure, Sintering Behavior, and dielectric responses of Cr2O3-doped Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6
    Journal of Applied Physics, 2006
    Co-Authors: Tsang-tse Fang, Fung-yu Chen
    Abstract:

    Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6 (SBN50) with and without Cr2O3 dopant had been prepared by the solid-state reaction. The structural variations of undoped and Cr2O3-doped SBN were examined by the x-ray diffractometer. As the Cr2O3 content increases, the lattice parameters remain almost unchanged initially but become greatly changed revealing the increase in a axis and the decrease in c axis when the Cr2O3 content is >1mol%, which was mainly influenced by the created oxygen vacancies. Isothermal Sintering Behavior of undoped and Cr2O3-doped SBN50 has been investigated. It was found that the creation of the charge-compensated oxygen vacancies and the accompanied structural change had a significant influence on the Sintering Behavior. The direct jumping path through vacant O sites (path 2 in Fig. 9) was further considered as the main reason for the enhancement of the densification rate and slight increase of the activation energy when the Cr2O3 content is ≦1mol% and the decrease of the densification rate but great increase o...

  • Effect of the Strontium:Barium Ratio and Atmosphere on the Sintering Behavior of Strontium Barium Niobate
    Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 2005
    Co-Authors: Wen Jiung Lee, Tsang-tse Fang
    Abstract:

    The Sintering Behavior of SrxBa1−xNb2O6 (SBN) (x= 0.5, 0.6, and 0.7) was studied. The densification rate increased and the evaluated activation energy of SBN decreased as the Sr:Ba molar ratio increased. Also, when SBN50 (SBN where x= 0.5) was sintered at

  • Effects of processing on the Sintering Behavior, microstructures, and properties of La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 doped with ZrO2
    Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 2003
    Co-Authors: Tsang-tse Fang, Ming-tzong Wang
    Abstract:

    Abstract Two different doping methods were used to study the effect of ZrO 2 on the Sintering Behavior, microstructure, and properties of La 0.67 Sr 0.33 MnO 3 (LSMO). For specimens of ZrO 2 -doped LSMO, it was found that the solubility of ZrO 2 in LSMO is limited, so the properties are not much affected but the Sintering Behavior are influenced by the liquid phase of MnO 2 , the residue of ZrO 2 , and pore growth. For specimens of LSMZO, the significant substitution of Zr for Ti would reduce the densification rate, lower T p and T c , and enhance magnetoresistance (MR). The mechanisms for the decrease of T p and increase of MR are suggested.

  • Sintering Behavior and mechanical properties of spark plasma Sintering SiO2-MgO ceramics
    Ceramics International, 2020
    Co-Authors: Zijun Peng, Xudong Luo, Zhipeng Xie, Mengmeng Yang
    Abstract:

    Abstract SiO2-MgO ceramics containing different weight fractions (0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 wt%) of SiO2 powder were prepared by mixing nano MgO powder, and the powder mixtures were densified by spark plasma Sintering (SPS). The effect of SiO2 addition and SPS method on the Sintering Behavior, microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated. Results were compared to specimens obtained by conventional hot pressing (HP) under a similar Sintering schedule. The highest relative density, flexural strength and hardness of 2 wt% SiO2-MgO ceramics reached 99.98%, 253.99 ± 7.47 MPa and 7.56 ± 0.21 GPa when sintered at 1400 °C by SPS, respectively. The observed improvement in the Sintering Behavior and mechanical properties are mainly attributed to grain boundary "strengthening" and intragranular "weakening" of the MgO matrix. Furthermore, the spark plasma Sintering temperature could be decreased by more than 100 °C as compared with the HP method, SPS favouring enhanced grain boundary sliding, plastic deformation and diffusion in the Sintering process.

  • Effect of molar ratios of MgO/Al2O3 on the Sintering Behavior and thermal shock resistance of MgOAl2O3SiO2 composite ceramics
    Materials Chemistry and Physics, 2017
    Co-Authors: Dong Feng, Xudong Luo, Guodong Zhang, Zhipeng Xie
    Abstract:

    Abstract In order to determine the relationship between the property of MgOAl 2 O 3 SiO 2 composite ceramics and molar ratios of MgO/Al 2 O 3 , especially the Sintering Behavior and thermal shock resistance, the MgOAl 2 O 3 SiO 2 composite ceramics were fabricated with micro-size MgO, Al 2 O 3 powder and nano-size SiO 2 as main raw materials. The sample was characterized by phase analysis, densification and thermal shock times. Moreover, field emission scanning electron microscope was also conducted to study microstructure of the samples before and after thermal shock. Effect of different molar ratios of MgO/Al 2 O 3 on the Sintering Behavior and thermal shock resistance of composite ceramics were investigated. The results showed that the sample possess better Sintering Behavior and thermal shock resistance with the molar ratio of MgO/Al 2 O 3 equal to 2/1. Grains of periclase and spinel were directly bonded together, resulting in a dense and compact microstructure, and the bulk density of obtained sample reached 3.4 g/cm 3 . The microstructure of sample after thermal shock revealed that the crack propagation path was deflected and bifurcated, the main-crack propagation was restricted and more fracture energy was consumed, the thermal shock resistance of composite ceramics was greatly improved.

  • Pressureless Sintering Behavior of Injection Molded Alumina Ceramics
    Science of Sintering, 2014
    Co-Authors: Wei Liu, Zhipeng Xie
    Abstract:

    The pressureless Sintering Behaviors of two widely used submicron alumina (MgOdoped and undoped) with different solid loadings produced by injection molding have been studied systematically. Regardless of the sinterability of different powders depending on their inherent properties, solid loading plays a critical role on the Sintering Behavior of injection molded alumina, which greatly determines the densification and grain size, and leads to its full densification at low temperatures. As compared to the MgO-doped alumina powder, the undoped specimens exhibit a higher sinterability for its smaller particle size and larger surface area. While full densification could be achieved for MgO-doped powders with only a lower solid loading, due to the fact that MgO addition can reduce the detrimental effect of the large pore space on the pore-boundary separation.

  • The Effect of Nano-Al2O3 on Sintering Behavior and Mechanical Property of ZrO2 Ceramics
    Key Engineering Materials, 2014
    Co-Authors: Hong Yan Sun, Bo Wang, Feng Rui Zhai, Zhipeng Xie
    Abstract:

    The effect of addition nanoAl2O3 on Sintering Behavior and mechanical property of ZrO2 was studied. It was shown that the addition of nanoAl2O3 with the Al2O3 content from 0.5mol% to 2.0mol% in ZrO2 ceramics could accelerate the Sintering of ZrO2 and increase the flexural strength and fracture toughness of ZrO2. ZrO2 added with 1.0mol% nanoAl2O3 has the maximum in strength of 650MPa and toughness of 15MPa·m1/2 sintered at 1450°C. Compared with undoped ZrO2 being sintered at 1500°C, the strength and toughness was improved by 12% and 18%, respectively.

  • Effect of internal and external constraints on Sintering Behavior of thin film electrolytes for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs)
    Ceramics International, 2014
    Co-Authors: In Yeop Kim, Mridula Biswas, Jongsup Hong, Kyung Joong Yoon, Ji-won Son, Jong-ho Lee, Byung-kook Kim, Hae Weon Lee
    Abstract:

    Abstract The effect of internal and external constraints on the Sintering Behavior of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) thin film electrolytes is investigated for intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The external constraints imposed by rigid substrates result in major process flaws, such as vertical and delamination cracks during film densification, in a chemical solution deposition (CSD) process. In this study, YSZ nanoparticles are incorporated into the precursor solution to impose internal constraints and control the shrinkage rate of the sol–gel matrix. Because the structural stability of the thin film is determined by the grain size distribution, it is critical to optimize the content and dispersion structure of the nanoparticles and the Sintering temperature to obtain a gas-tight thin film electrolyte for SOFCs. A clustering model is proposed to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the Sintering Behavior of the YSZ thin-film electrolyte containing the nanoparticles in the CSD process.
