● Dry Pressing
Dry pressing is a relatively mature process that uses external force to increase internal friction, causing particles to bond and maintain a certain shape.
The advantages are simplicity, ease of operation, and suitability for automated production. However, it faces challenges in producing large blanks, mold wear, complexity, high cost, and uneven pressure distribution leading to density and shrinkage inconsistencies, causing cracking and delamination.
● Slip Casting
The key to slip casting is preparing alumina slurry, usually with water as the medium, adding a deflocculant and binder, thoroughly grinding, degassing, and pouring into plaster molds. After demolding, drying, and binder removal, the product is sintered.
Slip casting is simple, produces uniform green bodies with high strength, and is suitable for large, complex ceramic parts. The downsides are long production times and high mold consumption.
● Tape Casting
Also known as the doctor blade method, this novel technique is suitable for thin ceramic sheets. The process involves adding binders, dispersants, and plasticizers to ceramic powder to create a uniform slurry that meets the required thickness. However, it produces low-density green bodies with high shrinkage.
3、High-Temperature Sintering
Sintering is a densification process that transforms granular ceramic bodies into solid materials by removing voids between particles, gas, and impurities, allowing particles to grow and bond. Electric furnaces are widely used for sintering, with temperatures ranging from 1000 to 1800°C depending on alumina purity.
4、Post-Processing
Some alumina ceramic materials require further finishing after sintering:
● Grinding and Polishing
Due to the high hardness of alumina ceramics, harder materials like SiC, B4C, or diamonds are used for finishing. A step-by-step grinding process from coarse to fine abrasives is followed by surface polishing.
●Cutting
Cutting processes allow for the segmentation of alumina ceramics into various shapes and sizes as needed.
● Drilling
CNC or laser machines are used to drill holes of different sizes in alumina ceramics.
● Glazing
Glazing involves coating the surface of alumina ceramic products with a layer of glaze, which is then sintered at high temperatures to form a smooth, wear-resistant surface.
● Metallization
Metallization involves firmly adhering a metal film to the surface of alumina ceramics, enabling ceramic-to-metal bonding.
