Preparation of Anti-Static Ceramics by Fe-Infiltration on Sintered Zirconia Body

Article Preview

Abstract:

Anti-static materials are widely used in the fields of textile, petrochemical processing, aerospace and electronics. An innovative processing method for fabricating anti-static ceramics has been developed based on Fe-infiltration on the sintered zirconia body. The sintered zirconia ceramics infiltrated by metal Fe in the inner atmosphere showed both perfect anti-resistive and mechanical properties. In this study, infiltration temperature and time was optimized to control the surface resistivity. It was shown that the lower surface resistivity could be obtained at higher infiltration temperature and longer infiltration time. However, the surface hardness was decreased. The surface resistivity reached 5.6×107Ω/ at 1300°C for 12 hours. The phase transformation and microstructure changes were characterized by XRD and SEM. The existence state of Fe was analyzed by EDS.
