Abstract
The silicon nitride (Si3N4) powders were modified using sebacic acid for aqueous tape casting to fabricate Si3N4 ceramic substrates. The effects of the powder modification on the chemical composition, slurry properties and the oxygen content of ceramics were investigated systematically. New organic groups from sebacic acid appear on Si3N4 powder surfaces by graft or adsorption and the dehydration-condensation reaction is weak. The slurry from the modified Si3N4 powder with more sebacic acid possesses a lower ΔpH, higher absolute value of zeta potential, stronger absorbance and lower viscosity, improving the hydrolysis resistance, dispersibility, stability and solid content successfully of aqueous suspensions. Si3N4 ceramic substrates fabricated at 1850 °C under nitrogen atmosphere from the corresponding aqueous casting tapes have the lowest oxygen content of 0.13 wt%, demonstrating that the modification of Si3N4 powders by sebacic acid shows great potential for the aqueous tape casting to fabricate Si3N4 ceramic substrates.
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.
