Abstract:

Cubic garnet Li6.24La3Zr2Al0.24O11.98 LLZO is a candidate material for use as an electrolyte in Li-Air and Li-S batteries. The use of LLZO in practical devices will require LLZO to have good mechanical integrity in terms of scratch resistance hardness and an adequate stiffness elastic modulus. In this paper, the powders were fabricated by powder processing of cast ingots. All specimens were then densified via hot pressing. The room temperature elastic moduli Youngs modulus, shear modulus, bulk modulus, and Poissons ratio and hardness were measured by resonant ultrasound spectroscopy, and Vickers indentation, respectively. For volume fraction porosity, P, the Youngs modulus was 149.8 0.4 GPa P 0.03 and 132.6 0.2 GPa P 0.06. The mean Vickers hardness was 6.3 0.3 GPa for P 0.03 and 5.2 0.4 for P 0.06.
