Alumina Ceramics

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0480064 | Open PDF

Abstract:

This comprehensive survey has been compiled to provide a sourcebook for aluminum oxide ceramic technology. The features and characteristics of high-temperature, transition and hydrated aluminas are presented in detail and are adequate for both engineering and scientific reference. Subjects discussed include nomenclature, natural occurrence and associations, beneficiation and preparation techniques, crystallographic features and mineralogical properties. Mechanical, thermal, sonic, electrical, magnetic, optical, radiation nuclear, chemical, and colloidal properties are critically reviewed. The aspects of grinding, forming and sintering pertinent to production of refractories, and applications including uses in cement, glass, cermets, electrical insulation, thermal coatings and airborne equipment are given. An extensive bibliography is provided.
