Microstructure of porcelain containing neodymium oxide

Glass and Ceramics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

The effect of neodymium oxide on formation of the microstructure of solid porcelain and the sintering process was investigated. A scheme of the structure-and phase-formation process in solid porcelain with neodymium oxide additive was proposed. It was found that incorporating neodymium oxide in the porcelain paste and increasing the firing temperature cause more active recrystallization of mullite and crystallization of new formations — neodymium orthosilicate — from a glass-phase melt.
