The samples were fabricated by powder metallurgy using the compression moulding technique and then sintered in argon atmosphere. Phosphorescence, hardness, microstructure and tarnish resistance were studied. In the process of the compression moulding, the samples contain 100, 90, 80 and 70 percent of copper powder, by weight, with the addition of 0, 10, 20 and 30 percent of strontium aluminate, by weight, respectively. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was used as a binder and mixed with copper and strontium aluminate powder to produce the green specimens using a hydraulic machine. Then, the green samples were sintered at 900 °C for one hour. After sintering, PVA was eliminated and the samples became denser. It was found that the hardness of the sample without strontium aluminate (30.5 HV) is higher than that of the sample with 10% of strontium aluminate addition (12.84 HV). Furthermore, copper samples containing strontium aluminate were fluorescent under ultraviolet at 517 nm. The sample with the largest amount of strontium aluminate (70Cu-30SrAl2O4) has higher phosphorescence than 90Cu-10SrAl2O4. In sulphur atmosphere, the tarnish resistance was found to be improved when strontium aluminate was added into copper. The colour difference (DE*) of 100Cu, which has no strontium aluminate, was 6.42 and higher than that of 90Cu-10SrAl2O4 (DE*= 3.5), 80Cu-20SrAl2O4 (DE*= 1.37), and 70Cu-30SrAl2O4 (DE*= 0.49), when testing in sulphur atmosphere for 30 min. 70Cu-30SrAl2O4, containing the highest amount of strontium aluminate, has the least colour changing on its surface resulting in the resistance in tarnishing.","PeriodicalId":13686,"journal":{"name":"Integrated Ferroelectrics","volume":"35 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136316827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All samples were calcined in the range of 900 °C–1100 °C for 2 h and sintered in the range of 1175 °C–1275 °C for 2 h. A pure ferrite phase was found in the powders calcined above 1000 °C and the average particle size of NZFO powders was increased from 0.39 µm to 0.59 µm when the calcination temperature was increased. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis results confirmed the formation of pure spinel structure with cubic phase in all the ceramic samples. The average grain size (5.54–2.80 µm) was slightly decreased, and the dielectric constant (239–13) tended to decrease with increasing sintering temperature.
