Abstract
To obtain Mn-Zn ferrite magnetic ceramic parts with good densification and magnetic properties, a study was conducted. Mn-Zn ferrite magnetic ceramic parts with a solid particle content of 58 vol% were prepared using stereolithography (SLA). The SLA-cured ceramic blanks were degreased and sintered. The degreasing process for Mn-Zn ferrite parts was optimized using a direct heat degreasing method, resulting in a suitable process for the ferrite magnetic ceramic paste system. The method of liquid phase sintering is proposed for sintering the degreased ferrite parts. The study investigated the impact of the content of accelerant, sintering temperature, and holding time on the density and magnetic properties of Mn-Zn ferrite parts. The optimal parameters were found to be a firing aid content of 3 wt%, a sintering temperature of 900 °C, and a holding time of 90 min. Under these conditions, the parts exhibited a density of 4.43 g/cm3, densification of 91.4 %, saturation magnetization strength of 64 emu/g, and coercivity of 10 Oe. Finally, the sintering control mechanism of SLA-printed ferrite magnetic ceramics was analyzed. The study revealed the grain growth process and magnetization principle of Mn-Zn ferrite during liquid phase sintering. This research provides guidance for the subsequent photocuring printing and degreasing sintering of Mn-Zn ferrite ceramics. Additionally, Mn-Zn ferrite magnetic ceramic parts prepared by the SLA method also hold a wide application prospect in various precision electronic components.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
