    Notes: Porous ZrO2 ceramics were fabricated by compacting a fine ZrO2 powder, followed by pressureless sintering. Two unidirectional pressures of 30 and 75 MPa were used to prepare the green compacts. The strength and the fracture toughness of porous ZrO2 specimens sintered from the compacts prepared by 75 MPa were substantially higher than those by 30 MPa, especially for the specimens with low porosity. However, the corresponding Young's moduli were identical. This caused the strain to failure of these porous bodies to increase significantly with increasing compaction pressure. Microstructural analyses showed that a number of voids and small flaws existed in the green compacts prepared by the lower pressure, due to the agglomeration of fine ZrO2 grains. It was revealed that the ZrO2 agglomeration resulted in a localized nonuniform shrinkage and degraded the mechanical properties of porous ZrO2 ceramics.

    Notes: This work proposes a new approach, based on the reaction Si3N4+ 2B2O3+ 9C → 3SiC + 4BN + 6CO, to synthesize an SiC–BN composite. The composite was prepared by reactive hot pressing (RHP), at 2000°C for 60 min at 30 MPa under an argon atmosphere, following a 60 min hold at 1700°C without applied pressure before reaching the RHP temperature. TG-DTA results showed that a nitrogen atmosphere inhibited denitrification somewhat and retarded the reaction rate. The chemical composition of the obtained material was consistent with theoretical values. FE-SEM observation showed that in situ-formed SiC and BN phases were of spherical morphology with very fine particle size of ∼100 nm.

    Notes: Porous silicon nitride with macroscopically aligned channels was synthesized using a freeze-drying process. Freezing of a water-based slurry of silicon nitride was done while unidirectionally controlling the growth direction of the ice. Pores were generated subsequently by sublimation of the columnar ice during freeze-drying. By sintering this green body, a porous silicon nitride with high porosity (over 50%) was obtained and its porosity was controllable by the slurry concentration. The porous Si3N4 had a unique microstructure, where macroscopically aligned open pores contained fibrous grains protruding from the internal walls of the Si3N4 matrix. It is hypothesized that vapor/solid phase reactions were important to the formation mechanism of the fibrous grains.

    Notes: Aluminum nitride–boron nitride (AlN–BN) composites were prepared based on the nitridation of aluminum boride (AlB2). AlN powder was added to change the BN volume fraction in the obtained composites. Thermogravimetry–differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray diffractometry, and the nitridation ratio were used to investigate the nitridation process of AlB2. At ∼1000°C, a sharp exothermic peak occurred in the DTA curve, corresponding to the rapid nitridation of aluminum in AlB2. On the other hand, the nitridation of the transient phase, Al1.67B22, was very slow when the temperature was 〈1400°C. However, the nitridation speed obviously accelerated at temperatures 〉1600°C. The pressure of the nitrogen atmosphere was also an important factor; high nitrogen pressure remarkably promoted nitridation. Treatment at 2000°C was disadvantageous for nitridation, because of the rapid formation of a dense surface layer that inhibited nitrogen diffusion into the specimen interior. Three specimens, with 5 wt% Y2O3 additive and different BN contents, were prepared by pressureless reactive sintering, according to the determined sintering schedule. Electron microscopy (scanning and transmission) observations revealed that the in-situ-formed BN flakes were homogeneously and isotropically distributed in the AlN matrix. A schematic mechanism for microstructural formation was developed, based on the results of nitridation and the microstructural features of the obtained composites. The obtained composites, with a low BN content, exhibited a high bending strength, comparable to that of reported hot-pressed AlN–BN composites.

    Notes: Porous ceramics with complex pore structure were synthesized by a freeze-dry process. Freezing-in of a water-based ceramics slurry was done while controlling the growth direction of the ice. Sublimation marks of the ice were generated by drying under reduced pressure. Porous ceramics having a complex pore structure were obtained by sintering the green body: aligned macroscopic open pores contained micropores in their internal walls. The pore structure was substantially affected by the starting slurry concentration and sintering temperature. The pore formation mechanism is discussed in relation to these effects.

    Notes: Al2O3-based porous ceramics with high surface areas were fabricated by adding Al(OH)3 to the starting powder, followed by pressureless sintering at temperatures 〉1100°C. Three types of starting powders were used in the present study: pure α-Al2O3, α-Al2O3+ Al(OH)3, and α-Al2O3+ ZrO2+ Al(OH)3. The addition of Al(OH)3 considerably increased the surface area of the porous Al2O3, and the addition of ZrO2 further increased the surface area; a surface area as high as 36.39 m2/g was obtained, and the high surface area was retained at higher temperature. The pore size distribution of the specimens with high surface area was bimodal, with one peak at ∼100 nm and the other, which contributed most of the surface area, at ∼10 nm. X-ray analysis showed that in the sample with the fine pores and high surface area, there was θ-Al2O3 phase produced by the decomposition of Al(OH)3, presumably because the phase transformation of θ-Al2O3 to α-Al2O3 was incomplete after low-temperature sintering. Moreover, the porous Al2O3 with high surface area retained superior mechanical properties, attributed to the good sinterability of the fine α-Al2O3 powder used in the present study. The sintered specimens could be large and designed to any shape, because pressureless sintering was used for fabrication. The present approach provides a new way of fabricating porous Al2O3 ceramics that could be widely used as catalyst supports in industry, especially for high-temperature catalysis.

    Notes: Porous Al2O3 and SiC–dispersed-Al2O3 (Al2O3/SiC) nanocomposites with improved mechanical properties were fabricated using pulse electric current sintering (PECS). Microstructures with fine grains and enhanced neck growth, as well as high fracture strength, could be achieved via PECS of Al2O3. The incorporation of fine SiC particles into an Al2O3 matrix significantly increased the fracture strength of porous Al2O3. Based on microstructural observations, it was revealed that the refinement of Al2O3 grains and neck growth occurred by PECS and nanocomposite processing.

    Notes: The mechanical properties of Al2O3-based porous ceramics fabricated from pure Al2O3 powder and the mixtures with Al(OH)3 were investigated. The fracture strength of the porous Al2O3 specimens sintered from the mixture was substantially higher than that of the pure Al2O3 sintered specimens because of strong grain bonding that resulted from the fine Al2O3 grains produced by the decomposition of Al(OH)3. However, the elastic modulus of the porous Al2O3 specimens did not increase with the incorporation of Al(OH)3, so that the strain to failure of the porous Al2O3 ceramics increased considerably, especially in the specimens with high porosity, because of the unique pore structures related to the large original Al(OH)3 particles. Fracture toughness also increased with the addition of Al(OH)3 in the specimens with higher porosity. However, fracture toughness did not improve in the specimens with lower porosity because of the fracture-mode transition from intergranular, at higher porosity, to transgranular, at lower porosity.

    Notes: A dense alumina-silicon carbide (Al2O3–SiC) nanocomposite was synthesized in situ from the reaction of mullite, aluminum, and carbon by reactive hot pressing (RHP). Transmission electron microscopy investigation showed that in situ-formed, nanometer-sized SiC particles were mainly entrapped in the matrix grains, whereas submicrometer-sized particles were located at the grain boundaries or triple points of the Al2O3. In addition, no amorphous phase was observed at the interfaces of the Al2O3 and SiC grains, which indicated strong direct bonding. Fracture-surface analysis by scanning electron microscopy revealed an intrafracture mode. The bending strength of the nanocomposite RHP-treated at 1800°C was 795 ± 160 MPa, and the fracture toughness, measured by the indentation method, was 3.1 MPa·m1/2.
