This paper aims to study the effects of NaCl on the sintering of forsterite as well as the thermal conductivity of the sintering products. In the sintering process, NaCl played a role in the system by mainly providing a liquid phase sintering environment in order to promote grain growth and forsterite sintering. Moreover, the model of liquid phase sintering was established in this paper. In the initial sintering stage, the phenomenon of particle re-arrangement was not significant, and dissolution-precipitation was regarded as the dominant sintering mechanism. With the extension of the sintering time, the middle and later stages of the sintering process were mainly controlled by the diffusion mechanism. A test of the thermal conductivity of samples with 40% and 50% NaCl was carried out, which indicated that the thermal conductivity of the two samples ranged from 0.3 to 0.4 W·m-1·k-1. At the same temperatures, the thermal conductivity of the sample with a salt content of 50% was lower than that of the sample with a salt concentration of 40%. Also, the heat insulation effect of the sample with a salt content of 50% was better than that of the sample of 40% . Hence, it can be concluded that the higher the salt content in the sample, the lower the thermal conductivity of the sample.

Sodium super ionic conductor (NASICON)-type Na3Zr2Si2PO12 (NZSP) with the advantages of the high ionic conductivity, stability and safety is one of the most famous solid-state electrolytes. NZSP, however, requires the high sintering temperature about 1200 °C and long sintering time in the conventional solid-state reaction (SSR) method. In this study, the liquid-phase sintering (LPS) method was applied to synthesize NZSP with the use of NaPO3 glass with a low glass transition temperature of 292 °C. The formation of NZSP was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analyses in the samples obtained by the LPS method for the mixture of Na2ZrSi2O7, ZrO2, and NaPO3 glass. The sample sintered at 1000 °C for 10 h exhibited a higher Na+ ion conductivity of 1.81 mS/cm at 100 °C and a lower activation energy of 0.18 eV compared with the samples prepared by the SSR method. It is proposed that a new LPE method is effective for the synthesis of NZSP and the NaPO3 glass has a great contribution to the Na+ diffusion at the grain boundaries.

Upconversion luminescence (UPL) characteristics and effects of Li+ ion on the UPL of ZnWO4:Yb,Er polycrystalline phosphors were investigated. It was shown that introduction of Li+ ions could reduce the calcination temperature by about 200 °C and increase the crystallinity of ZnWO4:Yb,Er by a liquid-phase sintering process via formation of Li2WO4 and other intermediates. UPL efficiency is remarkably promoted by Li+ ions. Moreover, the UPL spectrum of Li+-doped ZnWO4:Yb,Er presents a red shift, and the strongest peak position shifts from 553 to 559 nm. These can be attributed to a shift in the 4f level barycenter to lower energy, which results from lowering of the symmetry of the crystal field around Er3+.

Frenkel's liquid-phase sintering mechanism has essential influence on the sintering of materials, however, by which only the initial 10% during isothermal sintering can be well explained. To overcome this shortage, Nikolic et al. introduced a mathematical model of shrinkage vs. sintering time concerning the activated volume evolution. This article compares the model established by Nikolic et al. with that of the Frenkel's liquid-phase sintering mechanism. The model is verified reliable via training the height and diameter data of cordierite glass by Giess et al. and the first-order partial differential equation. It is verified that the higher the temperature, the more quickly the value of the first-order partial differential equation with time and the relative initial effective activated volume to that in the final equibrium state increases to zero, and the more reliable the model is.

In this research, titanium carbide-nickel (TiC-Ni) composites, with tungsten carbide addition, were fabricated by using a powder metallurgy technique. The TiC-Ni mixtures containing between 0-15 wt. % tungsten carbide (WC), were compacted and then sintered at 1300°C and 1400°C, respectively. The phase formation and microstructure of the WC-added TiC-Ni composites have been investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Mechanical properties of these composites were assessed by an indentation technique. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed no evidence of tungsten rich phases in the sintered WC-added cermets. This indicates that during the sintering process, tungsten carbide particles were dissolved in metallic binder phase (Ni phase) via dissolution/re-precipitation process during liquid phase sintering. The liquid phase formed during sintering process could improve sinterability of TiC-based cermets i.e., it could lower sintering temperatures. The TiC-Ni composites typically exhibited a core-rim structure. The cores consisted of undissolved TiC particles enveloped by rims of (Ti, W)C solid solution phase. Hardness of TiC-Ni composites increased with WC content. Sintering temperature also had a slight effect on hardness values.

When an alloy such as Ni-W is liquid phase sintered, heavy solid W particles sedimentate to the bottom of the container, provided that their volume fraction is less than a critical value. The sintering process evolves typically in two stages, diffusion-driven macrosegregation sedimentation followed by true sedimentation. During sedimentation, the overall solid volume fraction decreases concurrently with elimination of liquid concentration gradient. However, in the second stage of true sedimentation, the average solid volume fraction in the mushy zone increases with time, and oddly, no concentration gradient is necessary in the liquid zone. In this work, we propose that the true sedimentation results from particle rearrangement for higher packing efficiency.

In this study, the effect of sintering temperature on the properties of tungsten-copper (W-Cu) composite produced by liquid phase sintering (LPS) process has been investigated. W-20 wt.% Cu composite powders with particle size less than 1 μm was prepared by cold compaction and followed by cold isostatic pressing. The green specimens were then sintered under nitrogen based atmosphere in the temperature range of 1100°C to 1300°C. The sintering studies were conducted to determine the extent of densification and corresponding to microstructure changes. In addition, the properties of the sintered specimens such as physical appearance, microstructure evolution, mechanical and electrical properties were presented and discussed.

Sintering Shrinkage

Frenkel?s theory of liquid-phase sintering was interpreted regarding pores as the activated component. The data of isothermal sintering shrinkage vs. time of the cordierite glass by Giess et al. are trained using the model by Nikolic et al. to obtain the relative density at varied temperatures and time. Then, the time constants are obtained as 1998.86mins, 388.21mins, 89.79mins and 26.11mins at 800?C, 820?C, 840?C and 860?C, respectively. The calculated time constants are close to that by the theoretical calculation, deviation of which arises from the fact that particle size is variable during the sintering process. The time constant determination is crucial to the research of the whole sintering process.
