Abstract

Small amounts of additives can have a great influence on the sintering of ceramic powders. The most extensively studied example is, without doubt, the effect of dopants especially MgO, on the sintering behaviour of Al₂O₃. In spite of all these studies many questions are still unsolved since Coble¹ reported that the addition of 0.25 wt % MgO inhibits discontinuous grain growth and allows nearly theoretical densities to be achieved.
