Abstract Scope |
Flash sintering is emerging as a enabling technology that simplifies manufacturing, lowers cost, and enhances the performance of functional ceramics. Reactive flash differs from conventional flash in that powders of elemental oxides of the complex chemistry can be sintered to full density and converted into the single phase of the functional ceramics in mere seconds at very low temperatures. Two examples: the synthesis of bismuth ferrite from bismuth oxide and ferric oxide and alumina doped lithium lanthanum zirconate (LLZO-ceramic electrolyte for batteries) from powders of alumina, lithia, lanthana and zirconia, will be described in detail. |
