Aluminum Borate Whiskers Growing by Compensation of TiB2

Article Preview

Abstract:

Aluminum borate whiskers with TiB2 as borate source were prepared in this paper. The phase transformation process was analyzed by XRD and TG-DSC. The results indicate that TiB2 was decomposed into TiO2 and B2O3 in the calcining process in the active [O] atmosphere. 2Al2O3.B2O3 was formed in the lower temperature with reaction of Al2O3 and B2O3, while 9Al2O3.2B2O3 whiskers were grown by compensation of 2Al2O3.B2O3 at higher temperature (above 1050oC)
