Sintering Behavior of Forsterite with Manganese Oxide as Doping Agent
نویسندگان
چکیده
Forsterite (Mg2SiO4) powder was synthesized using magnesium and talc with assistance of ball milling. Manganese doped forsterite was prepared at weight percentage of 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.0wt% by adding manganese oxide before ball milling. The undoped and manganese doped forsterite were sintered at temperature of 1000°C, 1100°C and 1200°C. The Vickers hardness, fracture toughness and Young’s modulus have improved when 0.2wt% of MnO2 was added in comparison with undoped forsterite. The recommended temperature to carry out the sintering process is 1100°C where improved mechanical properties were observed.

Nanocrystalline forsterite for biomedical applications: synthesis, microstructure and mechanical properties.
Forsterite (Mg2SiO4) because of its exceptionally high fracture toughness which is close to that of cortical bones has been nominated as a possible successor to calcium phosphate bioceramics. Recent in vitro studies also suggest that forsterite possesses good bioactivity and promotes osteoblast proliferation as well as adhesion. However studies on preparation and sinterability of nanocrystallin...
متن کاملSynthesis and structural properties of Mn-doped ZnO/Graphene nanocomposite
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a promising metal oxide semiconductor with various applications, especially in the photocatalytic destruction of environmental pollutants. However, this nanoparticle has some limitations, such as poor dispersion, aggregation, and a wide energy gap. As such, the doping of metal oxide semiconductor has been strongly recommended. Addition of manganese (Mn) has proven effective ...

In this study, we synthesized and optimized the preparation of chitosan manganese-ferrite nanoparticles (CMn-Fe nps) and evaluated its ability for the mice macrophage ...
متن کاملComparison of the effect of chromium oxide and magnesium oxide on the mechanical properties and microstructure of alumina-mullite-zirconia composites
Alumina-mullite-zirconia composites were prepared by the reaction sintering method between alumina and zircon powders and the effect of two additives (chromium oxide and manganese oxide)were investigated on their properties. 2 and 4 wt% of each oxide were added to the raw material composition and after pressing, the samples were sintered at 1630°C. The results showed that chromium oxide decreas...
