Mechanism Research of Pr6O11 Addition on Wear Resistance of Alumina Ceramics

Article Preview

Abstract:

Many literatures reported rare earth ions would segregate at grain boundaries toinhibit grain growth and improve the ceramic performance. However, the mutualinfluence between segregation and alumina grains was rarely seen in thereports. In this article, interface reaction between single crystal alumina (inorder to eliminate the influence of grain boundaries) and praseodymium oxidewas designed to further understand the influence mechanism. The resultssuggested that a composite oxide was formed at the junctions. Besides, largestresses produced between the composite oxide and alumina because of the thermalexpansion coefficient difference. This stresses would weaken grain boundariesbonding strength and reduce wear resistance.
