Research on the Development of High-Quality Aluminum Oxide Ceramic (Review). Part 1. Sintering with Additives, Reactive Sintering, Production of Reinforced Composites

Abstract

Home-grown dissertations on ceramics obtained from aluminum oxide and methods for obtaining them in the period from 2000 are reviewed. Fine construction-grade ceramic is predominantly studied. The emphasis is on technological aspects. The first part of the review includes the sintering of Al₂O₃ with the addition of heteroelement oxides, reactive sintering with the addition of aluminum, the production of cermets of the type Al₂O₃, and the production of reinforced composites with an aluminum oxide matrix.
