Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the basic mechanism of SPS sintering is still not completely clear, and a lot of practical and theoretical research is needed to perfect
Due to the capacity limitation of pulse current, the current SPS cannot sinter products larger than 300mm to achieve complete densification.
Moreover, the current design of SPS is not yet capable of making products with complex shapes
In addition, the price of SPS is relatively expensive. Although there are industrial products, the sintering cost is relatively high, and it is still rarely used in the production of actual ceramic products.

Abstract

The invention relates to the filed of ceramic sintering, in particular to a flash sintering method of a low-temperature flash sintering ceramic and an obtained ceramic and a device thereof. The flash sintering method of the low-temperature flash sintering ceramic comprises the following steps: loading a voltage at two ends of a ceramic green body, and setting a current upper limit; heating the ceramic green body, when the temperature reaches a characteristic temperature, the temperature suddenly rising and meanwhile bright spots appearing around an anode, then a flash phenomenon appearing, and completing sintering of the ceramic green body within several seconds. According to the method, the flash phenomenon occurs when the temperature is heated to a certain characteristic temperature through voltage assist, and the sintering is completed within several seconds, so that the sintering temperature can be effectively reduced, and the sintering time can be greatly shortened. Moreover, according to the sintering method, the energy resources are saved, the sintering efficiency is improved, the production cost is reduced, ceramic products with large dimensions and complicated shapes can be produced, the density of a sintered ceramic block body is generally more than 95%, and the quality of the sintered and obtained ceramic is excellent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of ceramic sintering, in particular to a flash sintering method for low-temperature rapid sintering ceramics, the prepared ceramics and a device thereof. Background technique [0002] Rapid sintering is the mainstream trend of ceramic sintering technology in the world in recent years. At present, the sintering technology that meets the requirements of rapid sintering is mainly spark plasma sintering (SPS). Plasma is a dissociated high-temperature conductive gas with high reactivity. Since the plasma temperature is generally 4000-10999°C, its gaseous molecules and atoms are in a highly activated state, and the degree of ionization in the plasma gas is high, these properties make plasma a very important material preparation and processing technology. The sintering method uses pulsed current to make the particles uniformly generate Joule heat and activate the surface of the particles to become a discharge plasma, which...
