Sintering of Ceramics provides the only comprehensive treatment of
the theories and principles of sintering and their application to
the production of advanced ceramics with the required target
microstructure. Stemming from the author's bestselling text,
"Ceramic Processing and Sintering," this book includes additional
material selected from many sources, providing a single
comprehensive volume of all aspects of sintering theory and
practice. While the emphasis is on the sintering of ceramics, the
book is also useful for the sintering of metals and other materials
because of the comprehensive treatment.
Starting with a review of sintering fundamentals such as
diffusion and defect chemistry, the book continues with a detailed
treatment of solid-state sintering, viscous sintering of amorphous
materials, grain growth and microstructural evolution in
solid-state materials, and liquid-phase sintering. Special topics
include sintering difficulties such as constrained sintering of
composites, adherent thin films, and multilayers; solid solution
additives and their role in microstructure control, morphological
stability of continuous phases and thin films; and sintering with
concurrent reaction or crystallization. The treatment concludes
with coverage of practical methods for improving sintering
techniques, the effects of process variables on sintering behavior,
and applications of sintering to the development of advanced
ceramics.
Sintering of Ceramics provides an up-to-date text for a senior
undergraduate, introductory graduate, or continuing education
course in sintering, as well as an ideal reference text for
scientists and engineers involved in the research, development,
andmanufacture of ceramics or powder metallurgy products.
