摘要
The sintered bodies of the Al2O3Cr2O3 system form a solid solution (Al1-yCry)2O3 obeying Vegard's Law. The end member oxide, however, mutually deteriorates sinterability of the counterpart oxide, differing in the extent of its deterioration effect across composition, giving a sinterability minimum of roughly between y = 0·5-1. The sinterability curves of with and without Ti addition appear to be approximately parallel but the 5 wt% Ti-doped bodies result in much greater densification and hardness across the whole composition range. The added Ti nearly eliminates intragranular fine pores while it forms intergranular second phases; Al2TiO5 in Al2O3-rich samples and rutile (R-TiO2) in Cr2O3-rich ones. A 95·0% theoretically dense alumina with a very high microhardness (20 888 MPa) is obtained by adding 5 wt% Ti by conventional sintering in air. These values are nearly equal to or higher than those attained through very elaborative and practically awkward sintering practice and hot-pressing. © 1990.
