Study of liquid-phase sintering of materials based on zirconium dioxide containing alumina

Аннотация

The dependence of the sintering of zirconium dioxide on the aluminum oxide content and the use of additives forming the liquid phase during sintering is studied. Dense nanostructured ceramic materials based on zirconium dioxide containing aluminum oxide are synthesized. It is shown that the use of additives based on sodium silicate contributes to the sintering and the formation of a nonporous structure at 1330°C. It is revealed that aluminum oxide in the amount of 1 and 5 wt % increases the density of materials, while at the content of 16 wt % the sintering until the dense state does not occur even at temperatures up to 1550°C.
