摘要
Porous mullite ceramics were prepared at 1300-1600 degrees C for 2h via a foam-gelcasting route using industrial-grade mullite powders as the main raw material, Isobam 104 as the dispersing and gelling agent, triethanolamine lauryl sulphate as the foaming agent and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose as the foam stabilising agent. The effects of firing temperature on the sintering behaviour of green samples as well as microstructures and properties of final porous mullite products were investigated. With increasing the temperature from 1300 to 1600 degrees C, linear shrinkage and bulk density values of fired samples increased, whereas their porosity decreased. Mechanical strength and thermal conductivity values of fired samples decreased with increasing their porosities. Even at a porosity level as high as 79.4%, compressive and flexural strengths of fired samples (with average pore size of 314m) remained as high as 9.0 and 3.7MPa, respectively, and their thermal conductivity (at 200 degrees C) remained as low as 0.21W(m(-1)K(-1)).
