Sintering of beryllium oxide -- Influence of minor additions on densification and microstructural development

  • 1. Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Bombay (India). Metallurgy Div.

Description

The influence of 0.01 to 5 wt% additions of MgO, Ti02 and Fe2O3 on the sintering behaviour and grain development of beryllium oxide was studied at temperatures between 1100° and 1500°C in vacuum and in air. Significant effect was noticed on the sintering behaviour and grain growth. Both densification and grain growth attained a maxima with MgO and Ti02 additions, the optimum value being around 1 %. With Fe2O3 both the densification and grain growth seem to be directly related to the amount of additions.
