Translucent AlN ceramics were fabricated using spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique with 3wt% CaF2 as sintering additive. The samples achieved 52.4% maximum transmittance in medium IR region after 10 min holding time by spark plasma sintering at 1800°C and 30 MPa pressure in N2. The results from XRD, SEM, TEM and EDX showed that the sintered bodies were densely compacted and highly pure with fine grain size and uniform microstructures. No secondary phases were observed at the grain boundaries and triple grain junctions, which guaranteed good optical property of the sintered bodies.

In the present study, α-Si3N4 is prepared by using MgO and Al2O3 as the sintering additives and spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique. The SPS sintering mechanism is discussed. The relationship between the content of sintering additives, sintering temperature and relative densities of the samples is analyzed. The results suggest that when the sintering temperature is 1300-1500°C, the content of sintering additives is 6wt.%-10wt.%, the relative density of sintered samples is 64%-96%. When the sintering temperature reaches 1400°C, the content of sintering additives is 10%, the samples can be fully dense sintered and the relative density can be up to 95%. The sintering mechanism is liquid phase sintering. The bending strength of the sintered samples is 50-403MPa and has a close correlation with the relative density.

In this study, SnO2-based ceramics, with 0.5%CuO as sintering aid and Sb2O3 as activator of the electrical conductivity, was obtained by pressureless sintering at 1450°C for 5 h. Densification behavior and microstructure development strongly depend on Sb2O 3. The characteristization of microstructures on Sb2O 3 concentrations are analyzed by SEM. A small amount of CuO improves densification;Sb2O3 retards the densification of SnO 2-based ceramic. The electrical resistivities of SnO 2-based ceramics with different contents of Sb2O 3 are measured by the standard four probe method and varied in a wide range. The electrical resistivity arrives the minimal value of 4.964×10-2 Ω·cm for 99%SnO2+0.5%CuO +0.5%Sb2O3. More content of Sb2O3 than that of CuO causes the degression of density and the increasing of electrical resistivity of ceramics.

A novel method was used to fabricate AlN coating on graphite substrate. This approach included two steps: firstly, the emulsion composed of BN and anhydrous ethanol was sprayed on the surface of the graphite substrate; secondly, AlN coating was formed through the in-situ reaction of Al with the sprayed BN. The reaction was investigated by thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), and the phase composition in the synthetic process was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the morphology, and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) was used to observe the distribution of the elements. The experimental results show that the AlN coating is dense and bonded with graphite tightly.

Nano-sized turbostritic-BN (t-BN) was fabricated through chemical process using boric acid and urea in this work. By the same method, the AlN powders coated with nano-BN were prepared too. The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) revealed that nano-sized t-BN was synthesized at about 600°C in nitrogen gas and it surrounded the surface of AlN particles. High-density AlN/BN nano-composites were fabricated spark plasma sintering (SPS). Microstructure and properties of AlN/BN nano-composites (5∼30vol% BN) were investigated. The h-BN flake particles were homogenously dispersed at AlN grain boundaries and within grains in the AlN/BN composites. A little nano-BN additions significantly improved the bending strength of the nano-composites. However, the bending strength was decreased with the BN content increasing. The thermal conductivity of AlN/BN nano-composites was investigated too.

AlN ceramics doped with yttrium o5xide (Y2O3) as the sintering additive were prepared via the spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique. The sintering behaviors and densification mechanism were mainly investigated. The results showed that Y2O3 addition could promote the AlN densification. Y2O3-doped AlN samples could be densified at low temperatures of 1600-1700°C in 20-25 minutes. The AlN samples were characterized with homogeneous microstructure. The Y-Al-O compounds were created on the grain boundaries due to the reactions between Y 2O3 and Al2O3 on AlN particle surface. With increasing the sintering temperature, AlN grains grew up, and the location of grain boundaries as well as the phase compositions changed. The Y/Al ratio in the aluminates increased, from Y3Al5O 12 to Y4lO3 and to Y4Al 2O9. High-density, the growth of AlN grains and the homogenous dispersion of boundary phase were helpful to improve the thermal conductivity of AlN ceramics. The thermal conductivity of 122Wm -1K-1 for the 4.0 mass%Y203-doped AlN sample was reached.

Nearly single-phase and polycrystalline charge-density-wave compound K0.3MoO3 have been prepared by using a simple method. In this work, K2CO3 and MoOs were used as starting materials and reacted by hot isostatic pressing (HIP) sintering. The product is nearly single phase K0.3MoO3 determined by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Measurement of temperature dependence of resistivity reveals that the transport property of polycrystalline K0.3MoO3 obviously differs from that of single crystal due to the grain boundaries and the anisotropic structure in this kind of compound.

Using the microwave sintering technology, the effects of VC/Cr3C2 additions on the microstructure and properties of the ultrafine WC-10Co alloys were investigated. Experimental results showed that ultrafine WC-10Co alloys with 0.6% additions had the best properties while the excessive grain growth inhibitors would decrease the properties of alloys. Moreover, with or without additions, WC-10Co alloys with finely uniform grained WC by microwave sintering could be obtained.

In this study, spark plasma sintering (SPS) was applied to prepare α-Si3N4 ceramics of different densities with magnesia, silicon dioxide, alumina as the sintering aids. The sintering behavior and liquid phase sintering (LPS) mechanism were discussed and the factors influencing the density of the prepared samples were analyzed. Microstructures of sintered samples were observed and the phase compositions were analyzed. The results showed that α-Si3N4 ceramics can be sintered by SPS based on the reaction among α-Si3N4 and sintering additives which lead to the liquid phase and the density can be well controlled from 2.48 to 3.09 g/cm3 while the content of the sintering aids changes from 10% to 28.5% and sintering temperature from 1400°C to 1500°C.

Al2(1-x)MgxTi1+xO5(x=0.05-0.3) composite powder was prepared by the method of chemical coprecipitation and subsequent sintering using TiCl5, MgCl2 and AlCl 3 solution as the raw materials, and ammonia and ammonium carbonate as the solvent. Thermal dynamics and kinetic dynamics analysis of the precursor during the heat treatment were explored in detail, and the reaction process of Al2(1-x)MgxTi1+xO5(x=0.3) composite powder was confirmed. Results show that, as the temperature increases MgO reacts with TiO2 of anatase phase to form MgTi2O5. At about 650°C, anatase transfers into rutile. Then MgTi2Os reacts with Al2O3 to produce MgAl2O4 at 900°C. When the temperature is above 1100°C, the desired Al 2(1-x)MgxTi1+xO5(x=0.3) composite powder is synthesized by the reaction of MgAl2O24, Al 2O3 and TiO2 of rutile phase.
