The Effect of Pore-Formers on the Performance of YSZ/NiO Composite Material

Article Preview

Abstract:

YSZ/NiO composite powders were successfully synthesized by chemical liquid phase co-precipitation process. YSZ/NiO composite ceramic bodies were prepared by gel casting. Three different types and amounts of pore-formers were added into the YSZ/NiO suspension. The results show that the YSZ/NiO composite with the best properties and optimal porosity of 42.18% was obtained when the 7wt.% corn meal was used as pore-former.
