The new Monte Carlo Potts model that couples with fabrication parameters and considers pores and additives has been developed in order to simulate the fabrication of single-phase ceramics tool materials. The microstructure evolution for single-phase Al2O3 ceramic tool materials is simulated with the different technology parameters. At the same time, the single-phase Al2O3 ceramic tool materials are fabricated with the corresponding technology parameters. The errors of grain size between the simulated and the experimental is 12.1 and18.2%.

A computer simulation coupled with fabrication pressure for the sintering process of two-phase ceramic tool materials has been developed using a two-dimensional hexagon lattice model mapped from the realistic microstructure. The mean grain size of simulated microstructures by Monte Carlo Potts model integrated with pressure increases with an increase in fabrication pressure, which is consistent with the experiment results. Monte Carlo Potts model coupled with fabrication pressure is suitable for simulating the microstructure evolution at the different fabrication pressure during the fabrication of ceramic tool materials.

A computer simulation coupled with fabrication temperature for the sintering process of two-phase ceramic tool materials has been developed using a two-dimensional hexagon lattice model mapped from the realistic microstructure. The relationship between fabrication temperature and microstructure evolution is proposed. The mean grain sizes of simulated microstructures by Monte Carlo Potts model integrated with fabrication temperature increase with an increase in fabrication temperature, which is consistent with the experiment results.

A Monte Carlo Potts model coupled with sintering temperature for the sintering process of nanocomposite ceramic tool materials is proposed, the relation between grain growth and sintering temperature is presented. The grain growth process at different sintering temperature is investigated in this model, and the effect of sintering temperature on microstructure evolution is discussed, it is found that the mean grain size increases with the increase of sintering temperature during simulation, and nanoparticles are easier to enter into matrix grains to form intragranular-type microstructure at higher temperature. The simulation results are in accordance with the experimental observations.

The relationship between fabrication pressure and microstructure evolution is proposed. A computer simulation coupled with fabrication pressure for the hot-pressing process of single-phase ceramic tool materials has been developed, which uses a two-dimensional hexagon lattice model mapped from the realistic microstructure without considering the presence of pores. The fabrication of single-phase Al2O3 is simulated. The mean grain size of simulated microstructure by Monte Carlo Potts model integrated with fabrication pressure increases with an increase in fabrication pressure, which is consistent with the experiment results. It is shown that Monte Carlo Potts model coupled with fabrication pressure may simulate the microstructure evolution of single-phase ceramic tool materials.

In order to investigate the effect of hot-press fabrication parameters on mechanical properties of Al2O3 ceramic tool materials, the orthogonal experiment method was used. In the experiments, the three influence factors such as the fabrication temperature, pressure and duration time are considered. The experimental results are analyzed by a range analysis of orthogonal experiments. It is shown that the most important factor that affects the mechanical properties is the fabrication temperature and the followed factors are the fabrication pressure and the duration time of fabrication. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) reveals that the hot-press fabrication parameters will significantly affect the microstructure of ceramic tool materials, which can govern the mechanical properties. This has been validated by the orthogonal experiments in the present paper.
