A Study on alumina Sintering through the Oxidation of AI Powder.
ABSTRACT
This research is to aim at the study of sintering mechanism through the observation of microstructure by scanning electron microscopy, after the mixture of 30wt% $Al_2O_3$ (White Alundum) powder is fired in air at the temperature range of 1350~150$0^{circ}C$ in order to sinter $Al_2O_3$-Al through the oxidation of Al powder. The results obtained in this experiment are as follows: 1. While the compressive strength of $Al_2O_3$(WA) body fired at $1450^{circ}C$ for 5hrs in air is 150kg/$textrm{cm}^2$, that of Al-$Al_2O_3$ body fired at 135$0^{circ}C$, $1400^{circ}C$ for 5hrs in air is 1100kg/$textrm{cm}^2$, 1600kg/$textrm{cm}^2$ respectively, and the higher the firing temperature, the more the compressive strength increases. These results from the sintering effect between $Al_2O_3$(WA) grains and surrounding Al-oxidation layer. 2. While the compressive strength of Al2O3(WA) body fired at 150$0^{circ}C$ for 5hrs in air is 250kg/$textrm{cm}^2$, the compressive strength of Al-$Al_2O_3$body fired under the same condition is 2050kg/$textrm{cm}^2$ and water absorption 9.0%, porosity 23.3%, bulk density 2.60gr/$cm^3$. It is assumed that these results come from not only the grain growth of oxidized Al grains but also the increase of bonding strength between $Al_2O_3$(WA) grains.
