Microstructure And Magnetic Properties

La-Ca-Co substituted M-type Sr-hexaferrites (Sr0.3Ca0.4La0.3Fe9.8Co0.2O19-δ) were prepared by a solid-state reaction using two different procedures, where the SiO2 additive was mixed either before calcination (pre-Si) or after calcination (post-Si). At the same sintering temperature, smaller cell volumes and reduced saturation magnetization (Ms) values were obtained for samples processed with the pre-Si method than those with the post-Si method. This implied that the pre-Si method resulted in a greater degree of Si substitution into the M-type lattice and increased Fe extrusion out of the lattice. The grain growth behavior was controlled by the SiO2 amount and sintering temperature. It was found that abnormal grains occur with a bimodal distribution in the 0.5 wt% SiO2 samples sintered at 1240 °C, due to the increased critical driving force for growth caused by an increased amount of SiO2 addition. The Ms and coercivity values were altered with the control of Si diffusion and abnormal grain growth. The control of the additive diffusion behavior is one of the important keys in the material design under same materials compositions.

Zirconia Content

Grain growth behavior in Al2O3 with a small amount of ZrO2 (< 5 vol%) was examined. Grain growth of Al2O3 was retarded by zirconia particles, despite the small amount of added zirconia. The fraction of the zirconia particles embedded within alumina grains (intragranular zirconia particles) increased with decreasing zirconia content and increasing sintering temperature. Grain growth inhibition of alumina in the Al2O3-ZrO2 showed good agreement with the prediction of modified Zener’s pinning effect by the zirconia particles on grain boundaries.

Grain Growth Behavior

Multi-component ceramic composites consisting of two, three and four phases, based on duplex microstructures of zirconia and alumina, were fabricated by a polymer complexation route employing polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a polymeric carrier. The polymer complexation route provided porous and soft powders and they were sintered after a simple ball milling process. In this study, the microstructures and flexural strengths of the multi-component (Al2O3-ZrO2-Y2O3-SrO) ceramic composites were examined on the processing variations of mole ratio and sintering temperature. The composites showed various grain morphologies according to the sintering temperature, and flexural strength of 410 MPa was obtained in the Al2O3·ZrO2·0.5Y2O3·0.4SrO composite sintered at 1600 °C for 1 h. In particular, needle-shape grains were observed in the four-component composites sintered at 1500 °C.

Austenite Grain Growth

The occurrence of abnormal grain growth (AGG) of austenite during annealing is a serious problem in steels with carbide and/or nitride particles, which should be avoided from a viewpoint of mechanical properties. The effects of cold deformation prior to annealing on the occurrence of AGG have been investigated. It was found that the temperature range of the occurrence of AGG is shifted toward a low temperature region by cold deformation, and that the shift increases with the increase of the reduction ratio. The lowered AGG occurrence temperature is attributed to the fine and near-equilibrium AlN particles that are precipitated in the cold-deformed steel, which is readily dissolved during annealing. In contrast, coarse and non-equilibrium AlN particles precipitated in the undeformed steel, which is resistant to dissolution during annealing.
