α‐Alumina and spinel react into single‐phase high‐alumina spinel in <3 seconds during flash sintering
Abstract
Abstract In situ X‐ray diffraction measurements at the Advanced Photon Source show that α‐Al 2 O 3 and MgAl 2 O 4 react nearly instantaneously and completely, and nearly completely to form single‐phase high‐alumina spinel during voltage‐to‐current type of flash sintering experiments. The initial sample was constituted from powders of α‐Al 2 O 3 , MgAl 2 O 4 spinel, and cubic 8 mol% Y 2 O 3 ‐stabilized ZrO 2 (8 YSZ ) mixed in equal volume fractions, the spinel to alumina molar ratio being 1:1.5. Specimen temperature was measured by thermal expansion of the platinum standard. These measurements correlated well with a black‐body radiation model, using appropriate values for the emissivity of the constituents. Temperatures of 1600‐1736°C were reached during the flash, which promoted the formation of alumina‐rich spinel. In a second set of experiments, the flash was induced in a current‐rate method where the current flowing through the specimen is controlled and increased at a constant rate. In these experiments, we observed the formation of two different compositions of spinel, MgO•3Al 2 O 3 and MgO•1.5Al 2 O 3 , which evolved into a single composition of MgO•2.5Al 2 O 3 as the current continued to increase.
