Comparison of Creep Behavior in Alumina Based Ceramics Densified by Spark Plasma Sintering and Hot Pressing

Spark plasma sintering (SPS) method, as plasma activated sintering, is a method applicable for rapid sintering of metals and ceramics. Owing to the advantage of rapid heating, the alumina ceramics obtained by SPS have a grain size and density comparable to those of hot pressed ones. The increase of densification rate may be related to some difference in ion transport characteristics. This study...

The kinetics of hot-pressing for undoped and donor-doped BaTiO <Subscript>3 </Subscript> ceramics

The kinetics of hot-pressing for undoped and donor-doped BaTiO3 of high purity have been studied at 1050~ and at 2.3 to 27.6 MPa in an oxidizing atmosphere. The stress exponent and grain size exponent of the densification rate are indicative of control of densification by a grain boundary diffusion mechanism. The activation enthalpy (,~ 400 kJ mo1-1 ) for the densification process has been meas...

Neural Observer for the Hot Isostatic Pressing

Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP'ing) is one of several processes used for consolidating porous materials (such as metal powders) to high density. The equations describing the HIP'ing system dynamics are immensely complicated and highly nonlinear, thus complicating any controller design for the system. Further complications arise due to the fact that one of the system's states, grain size, cannot be...
