Abstract

Experimental data are given on the effect of thermal, impurity, and nonstoichiometric vacancies on the diffusion creep in oxide ceramics in the range of high temperatures and low mechanical loads. It is demonstrated that impurity and nonstoichiometric vacancies have the main effect on creep in a material of technical purity grade. The experimental data are adequately described in the context of the quasichemical approach, in which the concentration of vacancies is determined by the mass effect law for the respective defect-forming reactions.
