Original Abstract

Water-Assisted cold isostatic Pressing (WAP) enabled pressure-less sintering of fine grained (0.6 mu m) and nearly full dense (99.3%) weakly translucent alumina ceramics. As a term of comparison, Dry Pressed (DP) samples, prepared under identical processing conditions, maintained an opaque appearance, and their relative density did not exceed 97.7%. The enhanced compaction of WAP allowed to lower the sintering temperature down to 1350 degrees C, which is approximately 100-150 degrees C lower than that of DP powder. WAP samples resulted in an apparent activation energy for sintering (640 kJ/mol) matching literature values, confirming that the enhanced sinterability was attributed to an improved green density rather than a change in sintering mechanisms.
