Title: THE HOT PRESSING OF FINE GRAINED CERAMIC OXIDES FOR USE IN THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY STUDIES. Period covered: November 1, 1958 to October 31, 1959

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4137238

The relations between time, temperature, pressure, and grain growth in hot pressing were studied using alumina grain to determine the techniques neccesary for the production of dense polycrystalline alumina having a grain size in 4- io 5- mu range. It was found that alumina having a density of the order of 95% of theoretical and grain size in the desired range could be produced using a short time at maximum temperature n hot pressing. (auth)
