Resumo: |
Alumina ceramic is one of the most widely used in industry due to its properties. However, some properties, such as low fracture toughness, limit its range of structural applications. In order to improve this property has been studied several ways to control the microstructure of these ceramics, seeking a refined and homogeneous microstructure. The firing curve control to manipulate the microstructure during sintering is a way that has been studied and has advantages such as simplicity and economy. This work studied the two-step sintering of alumina ultrafine powders using steps at a low temperature sintering and the two-steps sintering proposed by Chen and Wang. With the help of statistical analysis was determined the variables that most influence in sintering processes studied. After sintering, the samples were characterized by apparent density and grain size. It was observed that the use of two-step sintering is effective in controlling the final microstructure of alumina, altering both the densification and grain growth. |
