Effect of Pressing Force on the Physical Properties of CaMgTiO3 Ceramic Prepared by HEBM

Article Preview

Abstract:

CaMgTiO3 ceramics were synthesized by using the high energy ball-milling method (HEBM) at different pressing forces. The raw materials were ball milled for 20 hours and sintered at 1000°C. Ceramics surfaces morphologies and particle sizes were measured using SEM analysis. Archimedes’ method was adapted to obtain their densities and porosities. It was found that pressing forces influenced both morphologies and particle sizes. As pressing forces increased, the particle sizes decreased as shown in SEM observation. However, the particle sizes increased at 200 kN due to agglomerated grain growth. The densities were almost constant with increasing of pressing forces while porosities were reduced.
