Abstract
Ceramic processing through the combined use of pressure and water offers a promising approach to achieve accelerated mass transport between ceramic particles at reduced temperatures, providing a sustainable and low-temperature method for ceramic synthesis and three-dimensional printing. While previous studies have explored the roles of pressure and water in the fusion and densification of ceramic particles, the underlying mechanisms, especially for micro-sized ceramic particles, are still debated. This paper aims to propose a potential mechanism for the fusion and densification of micro-sized ceramic particles under the effect of pressure and water. Using a multi-phase level-set simulation model, our results suggest that stress-assisted fracture and dissolution of interparticle contact points can be key factors driving the densification of micro-sized ceramic particles in the presence of pressure and water.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Ceramic Society contains records of original research that provide insight into or describe the science of ceramic and glass materials and composites based on ceramics and glasses. These papers include reports on discovery, characterization, and analysis of new inorganic, non-metallic materials; synthesis methods; phase relationships; processing approaches; microstructure-property relationships; and functionalities. Of great interest are works that support understanding founded on fundamental principles using experimental, theoretical, or computational methods or combinations of those approaches. All the published papers must be of enduring value and relevant to the science of ceramics and glasses or composites based on those materials.
Papers on fundamental ceramic and glass science are welcome including those in the following areas:
Enabling materials for grand challenges[...]
Materials design, selection, synthesis and processing methods[...]
Characterization of compositions, structures, defects, and properties along with new methods [...]
Mechanisms, Theory, Modeling, and Simulation[...]
JACerS accepts submissions of full-length Articles reporting original research, in-depth Feature Articles, Reviews of the state-of-the-art with compelling analysis, and Rapid Communications which are short papers with sufficient novelty or impact to justify swift publication.
