Influence of Slip Viscosity on the Mechanical Properties of High Purity Alumina made by Gelcasting
(1997)
The infrared-optical properties and particularly the emissivity of sintered ceramics depend on the material's bulk properties and structural properties such as porosity, pore size distribution and pore diameter. The infrared-optical properties can be varied across a wide range by specifically selecting the material's bulk and structural properties. A major concern of the present study is the development of a ceramic coating material with a total emissivity below 0.2 at a temperature of 800 °C. For this purpose, various samples of a TiO2-Y2O3 (TY) ceramic composite were produced with different properties. On variation in the Y2O3 content from 5 to 60 wt%, the porosity of the ceramic composites varies from 3 % to 47 % with the mean pore diameter lying in a range from 0.3 µm to 1.7 µm. The addition of graphitic pore builders increases the porosity up to 60 % and the mean pore diameter to a maximum of 15 µm. By optimizing the total porosity and the pore size of the TY ceramics, a total emissivity as low as 0.17 at 800 °C could be achieved.
Die Dispergiereigenschaften von verschiedenen nanoskaligen Pulvern mit unterschiedlicher Kornfraktion im Bereich von 10 bis 250 nm werden in verdünnten und konzentrierten keramischen Schlickern mit der Ultraschallspektroskopie untersucht. Alle stabilen Suspensionen weisen im entsprechenden pH-Bereich eine monomodale Partikelgrößenverteilung auf. Durch die Charakterisierung der Suspensionen mit der Ultraschallspektroskopie kann eine verbesserte Bewertung hinsichtlich Homogenität und Agglomeratbildung auch für nanoskalige Pulver erhalten werden. Dies ermöglicht eine bessere Qualitätskontrolle prozessrelevanter Schritte bei der Verarbeitung.
The tribological behavior of different low infrared (IR) emission ceramic materials from the titanate group has been investigated at room temperature under gross slip fretting conditions against 100Cr6 ball bearing steel and α-alumina as the counterface materials. For all material pairs, friction and wear depended largely on the relative humidity of the environment. When paired with steel the low IR-emission ceramic disks showed higher wear resistance. Under dry conditions, almost no wear was found on the low IR-emission ceramic specimen. The high wear on the steel counter body is caused not only by tribo-oxidation, which is the main wear mechanism, but also by abrasion. In dry conditions a COF of 0.6 and in humid conditions a COF of 0.2 have been measured. When paired with α-alumina the results on wear are just opposite to those with steel counterbody and the low IR-emission ceramic materials show much lower wear resistance under all conditions. This is explained by the predominance of abrasion and the relatively large difference in hardness between the low IR-emission ceramic and α-alumina. In high humidity environments the results point to the formation of stable reaction layers causing lower friction and wear.
It has been successfully demonstrated that ceramic materials can be joined in the green
state without a second phase by using low pressure injection molded parts. The investigation of the
joining interface revealed that a high quality interface can be achieved by carefully adjusting the
different manufacturing steps. The use of monomodal particle size distribution in the used powder
CT3000SG is inferior to a broader particle size distribution obtained by replacing 33% of the finer
alumina powder by coarser CT1200SG. In this way the dewaxing process is significantly improved
when the wall thickness of the part exceeds 3 mm. The investigation of the mechanical properties of
the joined and sintered parts revealed, that the bending strength of the joined specimens achieved
about 80 % of the unjoined, monolithic specimens.
Aiming at ceramic materials of low thermal radiation emittance titania yttrium oxide ceramics have been prepared by sintering in air at 1,100 and 1,400 °C, respectively, and characterised. Due to its high infrared refractive index, average pore sizes up to 1 µm for optimal Mie scattering cross sections and over 35% porosity the material is a promising candidate for elevated temperature insulations. The essentially in large pore growth is achieved by graphitic nano and micro particle additives.
The microstructure parameters of porosity, specific surface area, median and average pore sizes are determined by mercury intrusion porosimetry. Beyond this classical technique supplementary measurements by X-ray Absorption and X-ray refractometry reveal considerably larger average pore sizes due to closed pores not accessible for mercury. An additional advantage of the X-ray techniques is their non-destructive application, which allows other treatments afterwards. The combined application of both methods provides additional information and reliability in case of complex ceramic microstructures and may serve for improved developments of porous ceramics with optimised thermal scattering for energy savings in high temperature applications.
Fünf verschiedene Messverfahren wurden zur Partikelgrößenanalyse von nanodispersen ZrO₂-Pulver verglichen. Mit der Laserstreulichtanalyse, der dynamischen Lichtstreuung (heterodyne DLS und homodyne DLS-PCS), der Sedimentationsanalyse im Zentrifugalfeld und der Ultraschallspektrometrie wurden wässrige ZrO₂-Suspensionen mit verschiedenen Feststoffkonzentrationen hinsichtlich ihrer Partikelgrößenverteilung analysiert. Als Referenz diente die REM-Analyse zur Ermittlung der Primärpartikelgröße (ca. 40 nm). Mit den hier vorgestellten Messverfahren konnten in den entsprechenden Suspensionen nur Sekundärpartikel im Bereich von 105 nm bis 224 nm detektiert werden, die somit auf das Vorhandensein von Aggregaten bzw. harten Agglomeraten hinweisen.
