Could Hot Press Sintering Be the Future of High-Performance Transparent Ceramic Production?
As a new inorganic nonmetallic material with high performance and multiple functions, transparent ceramics show great application potential in optics, electronics, aerospace and other fields because of its excellent light transmission, high strength, high hardness and good thermal and chemical stability. Among the many methods to prepare transparent ceramics, hot pressing sintering has become one of the key technologies to achieve high performance transparent ceramic materials because of its unique technological characteristics. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the application principle and technological advantages of hot pressing sintering technology in the preparation of transparent ceramics and its promoting effect on the development of materials science in the future. The basic principle and process of hot pressing sintering Hot press sintering technology through the powder or preliminary forming ceramic body placed in a high melting point metal or...
