Spectral analysis and temperature measurement during flash sintering under AC electric field
摘要: In-situ diffraction experiments were used to study the change in peak profiles of 8YSZ during conventional sintering and flash sintering under AC electric field. Using calibration from a conventionally heated standard, the lattice expansion of 8YSZ under flash conditions was correlated to actual specimen temperature, indicating temperature comparable to that required for conventional sintering. At higher current densities, a temperature rise greater than 2000 °C was reached, which resulted in abnormal grain growth and temperature instability. Microstructural analysis demonstrated that finer grain size can be achieved by limiting the current in order to avoid high specimen temperatures. Experiments varying the thickness of the green compact resulted in higher heat loss due to thermal conduction and corresponding reduction in final density. A replacement to the blackbody radiation model was successfully used to fit the data and explain all effects based on Joule heating as well as provide a flash sintering processing map incorporating furnace temperature, power dissipation, and sample geometry.

Particle transport mode during flash sintering of sodium bismuth titanate ceramic
摘要: In this work, the NBT ceramics are successfully flash sintered at a direct current 30 mA/mm2 for 30 s under different initial electric field. Subsequently, the actual temperature of samples is estimated by blackbody radiation theory under different conditions. The calculation results show that the sample temperature is close to the densification temperature of NBT ceramics used in conventional method. The rapid densification mechanism is discussed by wetting of local contact particles due to the asymmetrical Joule heating. In particular, we analyzed the particle transport mode during flash sintering in terms of particle diffusion. It is believed that the transform in the particles transport mode from solid diffusion to flow mass transfer accelerated the particles diffusion rate, which ensure the particle rearrangement and achieve the local shrinkage of particles in a short period of time.

Flash sintering of barium titanate
摘要: A novel technique of low temperature and fast sintering is expected to meet the productive requirements of reducing energy consumption and improving efficiency. In this work, a dense Nb-doped BaTiO3 ceramic is obtained by a sintering method applying a direct current electrical field of 140 V cm-1 for 30 s at 1055 °C. In particular, the rapid densification mechanism of flash sintering Nb-doped BaTiO3 ceramic is explained by a model about liquid film which is formed by wetting at particle contacts, due to the Joule heating runaway. It is believed that the capillary forces generated from liquid film play a dominant role during flash sintering, which ensure the compaction of local particles and achieve the densified specimen in a relatively short time.

Flash Sintering Samaria-Doped Ceria–Carbon Nanotube Composites
摘要: Composite ceramic green pellets were prepared by attrition milling a mixture of (CeO2)0.8(Sm2O3)0.2 (samaria-doped ceria, SDC) ceramic powder and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), followed by uniaxial and isostatic pressing. The pellets were sintered inside a dilatometer by applying AC electric fields at 850 °C and limiting the electric current to 1 A, achieving 20.2% final shrinkage. The SDC samples reached 13.3% shrinkage under the same conditions. Higher average grain sizes were measured in specimens flash sintered with CNTs. Impedance spectroscopy analyses show that the specimens flash sintered with addition of CNTs have higher electrical conductivity. Higher delivered Joule heating at the interfaces due to the presence of the electronic conductors (CNTs) are proposed as the main reason for that improvement of the electrical behavior.

The role of point defects and defect gradients in flash sintering of perovskite oxides
摘要: The present study investigates the impact of point defects and their redistribution on the flash sintering process. Strontium titanate was chosen as a model system for the group of perovskite ceramics. The characteristics of flash sintering of strontium titanate were analyzed with different acceptor dopant concentrations. The onset of flash sintering was found to be dependent on the acceptor dopant concentration, as expected by the increasing conductivity. A gradient in the microstructure was found after flash sintering with larger grain sizes at the negative electrode. TEM-EDS measurements indicated Ti enrichment at the positive electrode for undoped strontium titanate and strong acceptor segregation for doped strontium titanate. In contrast, grain boundaries at the negative electrode were found to be stoichiometric for the undoped case and the acceptor segregation was less obvious for the doped case. Based on these results and the space charge behavior of strontium titanate, we infer that a gradient of the oxygen vacancy concentration is induced by the electric field during flash sintering: at the positive electrode the oxygen vacancy concentration is higher than at the negative electrode. For strontium titanate it is well known that a high oxygen vacancy concentration reduces the space charge and, hence, acceptor segregation, which agrees well with the experimental findings. Overall, the present study highlights the importance of point defect gradients and space charge for flash sintering of strontium titanate, which may be applicable for many other functional ceramics.
