The Al2O3-Fe2O3 composite was prepared at 1550°C for 3h with alumina powder and ferric oxide powder as raw materials and with magnesia powder as additive. The effect of molar ratio of Al2O3 to Fe2O3 on the sintering and thermal shock resistance of the composite materials was studied. The results showed that the apparent porosity and bulk density of the samples both decreased with the molar ratio of Al2O3 to Fe2O3 increase, as a result, the linear change ratio and bending strength both increased. When the molar ratio of Al2O3 to Fe2O3 equals to 3, the sample exhibits excellent thermal shock resistance. The XRD and SEM analysis results indicated that the mechanical and thermal proprieties are relative to the microstructure and crystal phases of the composite materials.

Al2O3 composite ceramics materials used for heat transmission pipeline were prepared by pressureless sintering in air. Calcined bauxite, talc and commercial alumina powder were used as the main raw materials, partially stabilized zirconia was also added to improve the thermal shock resistance of the samples. The effects of composition and sintering temperature on density, phase composition, microstructure and thermal shock behavior of samples were evaluated. It shows that the B2 sample which was sintered at 1400 °C for 2 h has optimal properties with porosity 0.4%, bulk density 3.2 g•cm-3.The bending strength increases 19.46 MPa after 30 times thermal shock cycles from 1100 °C to room temperature. The main phases of B2 are corundum and spinel, meanwhile, a small amount of monoclinic zirconia and α-quartz are also detected according to XRD pattern. Microstructure analysis reveals that spinel crystals are interlocked by prismatic corundum crystals, bright white beaded monoclinic zirconia particles are distributed uniformly, and it is beneficial to improve the thermal shock resistance of sample.

The MgO-Al2O3-Fe2O3 composite was prepared at 1600°C for 3h with magnesia powder and alumina powder as raw materials and with ferric oxide powder as additive. The effect of the molar ratio of MgO/Al2O3 on the sintering and thermal shock resistance of the composite materials was studied. The results showed that increasing the molar ratio of MgO/Al2O3 could improve the densification of the Al2O3-Fe2O3 composites, with the molar ratio of MgO/Al2O3 increased from 3 to 5, densification of the composites didn't increased but decreased. The optimum molar ratio of MgO/Al2O3 of the Al2O3-Fe2O3 composite is equal to 3, the sample MA-3 exhibits better sintering densification and thermal shock resistance. Its primary crystal phases are spinel and periclase, and less amount of sosoloid 20MgO·19Al2O3·Fe2O3. So, the MgO-Al2O3-Fe2O3 composite is acceptable for application in cement rotary kiln linings and high temperature gas filter support.

The composites in the MgO-Al2O3-Fe2O3 system were prepared using high pure magnesia and alumina as raw materials and ferric oxide powder as additive. The effect of sintering temperatures on the sintering performance and thermal shock resistance of the composites was studied. The results showed that both the apparent porosity and linear change ratio of the samples decreased with the increase of sintering temperatures, and their bulk density and bending strength increased accordingly. The sample sintered at 1550°C exhibits excellent thermal shock resistance. The XRD and SEM results indicated that the crystal phase of the samples remained the same, but their microstructure became denser as the sintering temperatures increased from 1500°C to 1600°C. As a result, the composites could be sintered at about 1550°C, which has a potential application in cement rotary kiln linings.

Abstract: Cordierite–alumina ceramics were prepared with the raw materials of cordierite and α-alumina powder, and TiO2,CuO and MgO were added as composite additives. The effect of MgO/ CuO ratios on the microstructure, thermal conductivity and thermal shock resistance of cordierite–alumina ceramics were researched by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and laser flash analyzer; the bulk density and the porosity of cordierite – alumina ceramics were measured. The results show that with increasing of MgO/CuO ratios, the bulk density and thermal conductivity increase firstly and then decrease, and have a minimum with 0.4wt% MgO and 0.667 MgO/CuO; and the porosity of ceramics decreases firstly and then increases and has a maximum with 0.4wt% MgO and 0.667 MgO/CuO;There are little changes in the size of the grain of the ceramics, and a small amount of magnesium aluminate spinel precipitate; the thermal shock resistance performance of the ceramics is developed with the increasing of MgO/CuO ratios.

ZrO2-Al2TiO5 composite materials with high bending strength and good thermal shock resistance expansion were prepared using partially stabilized zirconia (Y-PSZ) powders coated with Al2TiO5 by co-precipitation method. The effects of Al2TiO5 content on the sintering properties, phase composition, microstructure and thermal shock resistance of the zirconia ceramic were investigated.The results show that the apparent porosity of the samples decreased and their bending strength increased with the content of aluminum titanate increasing from 0 to 8 wt%. The samples with 5 and 8 wt% aluminum titanate addtion have excellent thermal shock resistance. The results showed that the addtion of aluminum titanate could enhance the mechanical strength and improve the thermal shock resistance of zirconia ceramic. The XRD and SEM analysis results indicated that the propriety improvement is relative with the change of the microstructure and the increase of tetragonal ZrO2 phase in the composites.

MgO-CaO-ZrO2 composite materials were prepared in oxidizing atmosphere at 1550 oC with sintered magnesia, calcium oxide and partial stabilized zirconia as raw materials. Sintering performance of the composites was measured by the checking of the bending strength, the apparent porosity, the thermal expansivity and the thermal shock resistance of samples, respectively. The phase compositions and microstructures of the composites were investigated by XRD, SEM and EDS. The results showed that CaZrO3 phase was formed by high temperture reaction between ZrO2 and CaO, and phase compositions of the composites consisted of two phases of CaZrO3 and MgO. The sintering performance of composites were promoted further with increasing the content of ZrO2 due to the volume expansion caused by the reaction of the added ZrO2 and CaO to form CaZrO3 phase in the refractories.

The MgO-Al2O3 system materials were prepared at 1600°C for 3h with magnesia powder and alumina powder as raw materials and with ferric oxide powder as additive. The effect of the ferric oxide additive on the sintering and thermal shock resistance of the composite materials was studied. The results showed that increasing the ferric oxide dosage could improve the densification of the MgO-Al2O3 system materials. In sample MAF-0, crystal phases all are spinel phase. With the ferric oxide dosage increased from 2% to 6% in MAF-2, MAF-4 and MAF-6, the MgAl2O4 (spinel) became the primary crystal phases, and less amount of sosoloid 20MgO•19Al2O3•Fe2O3. In comparison with samples MAF-0, MAF-2, MAF-6, sample MAF-4 has better structure compactness and thermal shock resistance, the optimum ferric oxide dosage was added in MgO-Al2O3 system material is equal to 4%. The MgO-Al2O3 system material is acceptable for application in cement rotary kiln linings and high temperature gas filter support.

The rapid development of magnetic materials has witnessed a sustained consumption increase in corundum-mullite kiln furniture application, yet a comparatively short duration of them. In this view, the thermal shock resistance of sagger plate in floppy magnets sintering turns out a factor of critical importance. This paper makes a study concerning the influence of factors including the size of critical electro-melted mullite particles, the electro-melted corundum or mullite as medium particles and the addition of upon the thermal shock resistance. The result shows that, with critical particles of 2 mm, the sheet of about 10mm thickness is characterized by better performance in modulus of rapture and thermal shock resistance. The latter proves to be more outstanding in samples rather than mullite. When zircon powder is added in a two-hour sintering process at the temperature of 1550°C, a remarkable improvement is made by the sample in terms of its thermal shock resistance. SEM analysis shows the existence of micropores in the section of samples with corundum as medium particles, whereas the glasses phase in that of mullite sample, resulting in a dense structure. Finally, zircon powder added makes for the improvement of thermal shock resistance due to the formation of baddeleyite on the particle surface of the corundum.
