Pulse Electric Current Sintering and Strength of Sintered Alumina Using Transition Alumina Powders Prepared from Polyhydroxoaluminum Gel.

Sol–gel transition study and pyrolysis of alumina-based gels prepared from alumatrane precursor

Alumina gels were prepared by the sol–gel method using alumatrane or tris(alumatranyloxy-i-propyl)amine as precursor synthesised directly from the reaction of inexpensive and readily available compounds, aluminium hydroxide and triisopropanolamine (TIS), via the one step process. Sol–gel process parameters, such as gel time, were correlated to variables of the initial stage of the process, such...

Morphology investigation of alumina nano-powders prepared by a sol-gel combustion method

Highly sinterable alumina nano-powders have been synthesized by a sol-gel combustion method with glycine asfuel. The preparation involved the thermal decomposition of a chelating agent (fuel)-nitrate gel and theformation of amorphous precursors. The nanopowders calcined at 1100°C were characterized by X-ray powderdiffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). It was found that the ch...

Synthesis and Characterization of Silver/Alumina Powders

In this research, synthesis and characterization of silver/alumina composite powders was investigated. This kind of metal/ceramic composite powders is used for fabrication of cutting tools inserts. The role of silver is toughening the final product. The powders were synthesized via co-precipitation method. The composition of the synthesized powders was Ag/80% wt 〖Al〗_2 O_3. Silver nitrate, alum...
