Pore Characteristics of Porous Alumina Ceramics Fabricated from Boehmite Hydrosol and Alumina Particles
ABSTRACT
Porous alumina ceramics were fabricated by pseudo-boehmite phydosol-gel process within/without commercial $alpha$-alumina particles average 1 and 40 micron respectively. The pore characteristics of fired specimens were studied by the measurement of bulk density total porosity thyermal analysis pore volume pore distribution BET area XRD and SEM. with increasing of firing temperature pore volume and BET surface area were decreased and the average pore size was increased to approximately 146$AA$ upto 80$0^{circ}C$ by de-watering of [OH] and formation of $alpha$-alumina. The fired relative density of the alumina-dispersed specimen with average 1 micron particle was increased with the amounts of dispersed particle by bimodal packing theory which is compared to the ones of specimen including of average 40 micron particle. It was confirmed that the percola-tion threshold in porous ceramics with coarser particle (40 micron) has formed between the transformed-alumina from hydrogel and dispersed-alumina of above 50 vol% particle and the total porosity was increased at the threshold point above.
