    Great attention is being given today to investigations on the capabilities and structural changes of amorphous and nanocrystal materials. Structural changes of the amorphous cobalt and nickel alloy powder obtained by electrochemical deposition were investigated in this paper. The crystallization process, as determined by the DSC method, occurred in two steps. The temperature dependence of electrical resistively and magnetic susceptibility in isothermal and non-isothermal conditions within the temperature range of room temperature to 700ºC was determined for the powder samples pressed under pressure of 800 MPa. The X-ray structural examinations results correlate with those of the DSC analysis and the electrical resistively measuring

    Starting mixtures of BaCO3 •ZnO and Ti02 were mechanically activated for 0,5, 10,20.40 and 80 minutes in a planetary ball mill. The powders obtained were sintered isothermally to temperatures between 1000 and 1300 °C. The phase composition of powders and sintered samples were followed by X-ray analyses. Also, the changes in microstructures were detected using SEM

    A phenomenological analysis of sintering kinetics from the viewpoint of activated volume

    Get PDF
    The sintering kinetics of real systems has been viewed as a process of transport of activated volume. Activated volume is a parameter that can be used to describe mass transport during the sintering process. It defines the movement of point defects and dislocations during the sintering process. A phenomenological equation has been defined using this parameter, which can be applied to analyze kinetics of the sintering process. It has been applied to analyze the sintering process of several disperse systems. Values obtained for parameters of the equation have also been analyzed

    Materials applied in electronics such as multilayer capacitors are an important field of ceramic materials. Magnesium titanate based dielectric materials are used for producing type-I capacitors. A common way of obtaining this material is a solid-state reaction during reaction sintering. The process of sintering can be enhanced if mechanical activation precedes. In this work starting powders of magnesium carbonate (MgCO3) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) with a rutile crystal modification were weighed to attain a 1:1 molar MgCO3:TiO2 ratio. Mechanical activation of the starting mixture was performed by high energy ball milling using ZrO balls and vessels with a ball to powder mass ratio of 40:1. The observed grinding times were 15, 30, 60 and 120 minutes. Powder characterization was conducted using X ray powder diffraction, DTA analysis up to 1000 o C and particle morphology changes were observed with Scanning Electron Microscopy. Isothermal sintering of compacted powders was conducted at 1100ºC during 30, 60 and 180 minutes. For specimens synthesized in such a manner, microwave dielectric properties were measured, quality factor Q, specific electrical resistivity (ρ) and the dielectric constant (Єr). In this work we explain the influence of mechanical activation on the MgCO3-TiO2 system leading to titanate formation during sintering, as well as induced changes in microwave dielectric properties

    In this article the influence of ball miling process on structure of MgO-TiO2 system was investigated. The mixtures of MgO-TiO2 powders were mechanically activated in a planetary ball mill for the time period from 0 to 120 minutes. The influence of mechanical activation on the lattice vibrational spectra was studied by Raman spectroscopy at room temperature. Structural investigations have been performed on produced powders. Nitrogen adsorption method was used to determine the BET specific surface area and pore size distribution. Unusual results have been obtained: specific surface area continuously decreased up to 40 minutes of activation and increased after that, reaching its minimun value of 5.5 m2/g. The Raman spectra of activated powders have shown that anatase modes have been decreasing in intensity and broadening as the time of activation extended. Also, the additional modes attributed to TiO2 II, srilankite and rutile phases started to appear as a consequence of activation

    The aim of this work was to analyze influence of mechanical activation on MgO-TiO2 system. Mixtures of MgO-TiO2 were mechanically activated for 0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 120 minutes in a planetary ball mill and after that sintered isothermally at temperatures between 1000 and 1300 °C. The phase composition and change of microstructures powders and sintered samples were investigated by X-ray analyses and SEM

    The aim of this work was to analyse the kinetics and microstructure evolution of ZnO sintering process. ZnO powder was isothermally sintered (15, 30, 60, 90 and 120 min) in the temperature range from 8000C to 12000C. The values of Lenel parameter were calculated and used for the analysis of the densification and mass transport processes. Using scanning electron microscopy the analysis of the microstructure evolution and dependence of the average grain size with temperature and time of sintering was obtained. The results of this research could enable development of a new phenomenological equations in the analyses of ZnO-based materials sintering kinetics
