In this paper, using ZrO2 and Ca (NO3)•4H2O as raw materials, we prepared a series of calica stabilized zirconia (CSZ) ceramics by pressureless sintering method. The results show that the relative densities of all sintered samples are above 90%, and the sintered samples are composed of cubic, tetragonal and monoclinic ZrO2, and the main phase is cubic ZrO2 and tetragonal ZrO2. The content of cubic phase increases with the increase of sintering temperature and adding CaO content. The grain size of the sintered samples is relatively uniform and some pores exist. Increasing the additive amount of CaO, the conductivity first rises and then decreases, and the conductivity value of the sample containing 5wt% CaO is the maximum. When the sintering temperature is up to 1600 oC, the conductivity of the sample containing 5wt% CaO is up to 0.016S•cm-1 at 800 oC. Furthermore, the conductivity of sintered samples is increasing with the increase of test temperature according to the Arrhenius equation.

Abstract Li1.5Al0.5Ti1.5(PO4)3 (LATP) powders were prepared from different NO x -free precursors using an aqueous-based solution-assisted solid-state reaction (SA-SSR). The sintering behavior, phase formation, microstructure and ionic conductivity of the powders were explored as a function of sintering temperature. The powders showed a relatively narrow temperature windows in which shrinkage occurred. Relative densities of 95% were reached upon heating between 900 and 960 °C. Depending on the morphological features of the primary particles, either homogeneous and intact microstructures with fine grains of about <2 µm in size or a broad grain size distribution, micro-cracks and grain cleavages were obtained, indicating the instability of the microstructure. Consequently, the ceramics with a homogeneous microstructure possessed a maximum total ionic conductivity of 0.67 mS cm−1, whereas other ceramics reached only 0.58 mS cm−1 and 0.21 mS cm−1.

In this work, we report the effect of sintering temperature (900°C, 1000°C, 1100°C and 1200°C) on the electrical and magnetotransport properties of polycrystalline La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (LSMO). Single phase of LSMO hexagonal structure (R-3c) accompanied with minor phases was successfully synthesized by co-precipitation method. With increasing sintering temperature, grain growth was promoted and grain connectivity was improved. It was found that an enhancement of resistivity on smaller grain size was due to larger grain surface over volume (grain boundaries effect). The shifting of the metal-insulator transition (TMI) to higher temperature was also responsible for observed changes in physical properties. TMI of 900°C, 1000°C and 1100°C were 232 K, 278 K and 298 K respectively however 1200°C was out of measurement range (higher than 300 K). In summary, CP900 with smaller grain size distribution (~200 nm) displayed the highest resistivity and MR% of -19.2% (at 80 K, 10 kG).

Dental porcelain is one of the indirect restoration material with excellent aesthetic properties,on the other hand porcelain hardness frequently causing excessive wear of antagonist teeth. This study aiming to evaluate the effect of sintering temperature on the self-synthesized porcelain hardness. In this experiment, 25 porcelain samples were synthesized using Sumatran sand from Pangaribuan and Belitung regions, with the composition of 65 wt% Pangaribuan feldspar, 25 wt% Belitung silica and 10 wt% potassium salt. The samples were sintered in five different temperatures, which were 1110°C (A), 1120°C (B), 1130°C (C), 1140°C (D), and 1150°C (E). These samples were then invested on 5cm diameter resin each. The hardness was tested using Zwick Roell ZHμ Micro Vickers with 900 gram load for 15 seconds in 5 different indented areas for each sample. The result shows average hardness of 435.8 VHN (A), 461.0 VHN (B), 472.0 VHN (C), 487.6 VHN (D), and 528.7 VHN (E), which were increasing as the sintering temperature increased. Statistic result shows that sintering temperature significantly affected the hardness value of the porcelain (p value < 0.05). In conclusion sintering temperature affects the hardness of self-synthesized porcelain made from Sumatran natural sand without kaolin, although the average hardness of self-synthesized porcelain is still higher than average hardness of teeth enamel.

BaBi4-xLaxTi4O15 (BBLT) ceramics were prepared by conventional solid phase sintering ceramics processing technology. The crystal structure and the microstructure were detected by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The XRD analyses show that La3+ ions doping did not change the crystal structure of BBT ceramics. The sintering temperature increased from 1120°C to 1150°C with increasing Lanthanum content from 0 to 0.5, but it widened the sintering temperature range from 20°C to 50°C and refined the grain size of the BBT ceramic. Additionally, polarization treatment was performed and finally piezoelectric property was measured. As a result, the piezoelectric constant d33 of the 0.1at.% doped BBLT ceramics reached its highest value about 22pc/N at polarizing electric field of 8kV/mm and polarizing temperature of 120°C for 30min.

Al8B4C7 was used as a sintering additive for the densification of nano-SiC powder. The average grain size was approximately 70 nm after sintering SiC-12.5wt% Al8B4C7 at 1550 °C. The densification rate strongly depended on the sintering temperature and the applied pressure. The rearrangement of SiC particles occurred at the initial shrinkage, while viscous flow and liquid phase sintering became important at the middle and final stage of densification.

Gd-doped ceria solid solutions have been recognized to be leading electrolytes for use in intermediate-temperature fuel cells. In this paper, the preparation, solubility, and densification of Gd0.1Ce0.9O1.95 ceramics derived from carbonate co-precipitation are reported. The dissolution of Gd2O3 in CeO2 lattice was identified to be completed during the co-precipitation process by studying the lattice parameter as a function of temperature. After calcination at 800 °C for 2 h, the nano-sized Gd0.1Ce0.9O1.95 powder (∼33 nm) with a nearly spherical shape and a narrow particle-size distribution was obtained. This calcined powder has high sinterability and maximum densification rate at ∼1000 °C. Sintering at 1300 °C for 4 h yielded over 97% relative density with near maximum. The grain size increased with increases in sintering temperature. The ionic conductivity of these pellets was tested by alternating current impedance spectroscopy to elucidate the contribution of intragranular and intergranular conductivity to the total ionic conductivity. It was found that sintering temperature does not affect intragranular conductivity, though intergranular conductivity was strongly influenced by grain size, grain boundary area, and relativity density. This pellet sintered at 1500 °C for 4 h showed a high ionic conductivity of 5.90 × 10−2 s/cm when measured at 750 °C. The characterization and structural evaluation of the as-received powders were carried out using x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, and dilatometer and impedance analysis.

In this research, alkaline niobate known as K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) lead-free piezoelectric ceramic was synthesis by solid state reaction method which pressing at different sintering temperatures (1000 °C and 1080 °C) prepared via hot isostatic pressing (HIP)). The effect of sintering temperature on structure and dielectric properties was studied. The optimum sintering temperature (at 1080 °C for 30 minutes) using hot isostatic pressing (HIP) was successfully increase the density, enlarge the particle grain size in the range of 0.3 µm – 2.5 µm and improves the dielectric properties of K0.5Na0.5NbO3 ceramics. The larger grain size and higher density ceramics body will contribute the good dielectric properties. At room temperature, the excellent relative permittivity and tangent loss recorded at 1 MHz (ɛr = 5517.35 and tan δ = 0.954), respectively for KNN1080HIP sample. The KNN1080HIP sample is also exhibits highest relative density which is 4.485 g/cm3. The ɛr depends upon density and in this work, the density increase as the sintering temperature increase, which resulting the corresponding ɛr value also increases.

Abstract The present work aims to investigate the effects of isothermal treatment on the structural, microstructure and physical properties of Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 glass-ceramic. Sintering temperature plays a major role in producing the desired lithium aluminosilicate (LAS) glass-ceramic crystalline phases. This work also aims to achieve a low thermal expansion coefficient β-spodumene (LiAlSi2O6) crystalline phase with improved density and lower porosity, which can be useful for the applications with thermal shock properties. The LAS glass-ceramic was fabricated by the melt-quenching technique at 1550 °C for 5 h before being isothermally sintered at an elevated temperature of 900 to 1200 °C for 30 min. The evolution of LAS glass-ceramic crystalline phases was identified using differential thermal analysis and the β-spodumene exothermic peak appeared at 999 °C. Based on the X-ray diffraction results, the complete transformation of β-spodumene from high-quartz solid solution (β-quartz) occurred at 1000 °C. However, the sintering temperature did not change the crystalline phase when sintered above 1000 °C, but the lattice parameter of the crystal structure was slightly altered. Moreover, it was observed that the LAS glass-ceramic grain size increased with temperature, whereby the smallest average grain size recorded (0.61 µm) for LAS glass-ceramic sintered at 1100 °C. Meanwhile, the fully densified LAS glass-ceramic at 1100 ° C was measured at 2.47 g/cm3 with 0.52% porosity. The isothermal treatment at elevated temperature indicated that sintering at 1100 °C provided a denser, less porous, and small average grain size which is preferred for thermal shock resistance applications.
