The Effect of Sintering Temperature on the Structure and Properties of Corundum/mullite Ceramics
Abstract
In this work, samples are prepared by adding secondary raw bauxite and some suitable amount pure silica. After dry pressing molding, using solid phase sintering method sinter them at 1380 oC, 1410 oC, 1440 oC, 1410 oC, 1500 oC, 1530 oC, respectively. A performance of the material is characterized by using SEM and XRD, such as microscopic morphology, phase composition and the compressive strength, etc. Combining results of experiments, explore the mechanism of sintering temperature on the properties of ceramic materials.
