Gelcasting of Fused Quartz Crucible with Large Scale

Abstract:

Fused Quartz crucible with large scale was formed by gelcasting processing in this paper. Effects of dispersant, pH values and particle grading on solids content of slurries were discussed to increase the volume density of the green compacts and decrease the shrinkage and deformation during sintering. Effects of acrylamide content and the ratio of acrylamide to coupling agent on bending strength of the green compacts were investigated. Effects of the amount of initiator and curing temperature on the gelcasting processing were studied as well. The green compacts with solids content of 80% was obtained when the addition ratio of dispersant to Quartz powders was 0.3wt %, the ratio of Quartz powders in D50 of 1.9μm and 7.6μm was adjusted to 3:7, the addition ratio of acrylamide to Quartz powders was 1.0wt % and the ratio of acrylamide to coupling agent was 16:1. The bending strength of the sinterred produts was found to be 76.0MPa with volume density of 1.94 g/cm2. Fused Quartz crucible prepared under conditions mentioned above was 800mm in length, 800mm in width and 400mm in height.
