Application of Spark Plasma Sintering for Manufacturing of Thermoelectric Materials
V-VI thermoelectric compounds like Bi2Te3-based alloys are well known for room temperature applications like Peltier coolers or thermogenerators. Their anisotropic physical properties and mechanical weakness are a problem for the manufacturing. To overcome the mechanical problem Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) was used. 2 inch Wafers of polycrystalline bismuth telluride based n-type and p-type the...
متن کاملEffect of SiC nanoparticles addition on mechanical properties and wear resistance of cemented carbides fabricated by spark plasma sintering
WC-10Co cemented carbides containing 1 to 4 wt% SiC nanoparticles were prepared by spark plasma sintering. The effects of SiC content on microstructure, mechanical properties and wear resistance of the sintered materials were studied. Microstructural studies showed that SiC addition resulted in WC grain coarsening. In addition, the hardness decreased with increasing SiC content. However, the fr...
متن کاملZrB2-CNTs Nanocomposites Fabricated by Spark Plasma Sintering
ZrB₂-based nanocomposites with and without carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as reinforcement were prepared at 1600 °C by spark plasma sintering. The effects of CNTs on the microstructure and mechanical properties of nano-ZrB₂ matrix composites were studied. The results indicated that adding CNTs can inhibit the abnormal grain growth of ZrB₂ grains and improve the fracture toughness of the composites. Th...
متن کاملMicrostructure and Electrical Properties of AZO/Graphene Nanosheets Fabricated by Spark Plasma Sintering
In this study we report on the sintering behavior, microstructure and electrical properties of Al-doped ZnO ceramics containing 0-0.2 wt. % graphene sheets (AZO-GNSs) and processed using spark plasma sintering (SPS). Our results show that the addition of <0.25 wt. % GNSs enhances both the relative density and the electrical resistivity of AZO ceramics. In terms of the microstructure, the GNSs a...
متن کاملStructure and thermoelectric properties of spark plasma sintered ultrathin PbTe nanowires.
Solution-synthesized thermoelectric nanostructured materials have the potential to have lower cost and higher performance than materials synthesized by solid-state methods. Herein we present the synthesis of ultrathin PbTe nanowires, which are compressed by spark plasma sintering at various temperatures in the range of 405-500 °C. The resulting discs possess grains with sizes of 5-30 μm as well...
