    Structural and mechanical characterization of mullite and aluminium titanate reinforced yttria stabilized zirconia ceramic composites
    (Korean Assoc Crystal Growth, Inc, 2019) Küçük, İsrafil; Boyraz, Tahsin
    3 mole % yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) ceramic and 20 wt. % mullite (M), and 20 wt. % aluminium titanate (AT) reinforced YSZ ceramic composites were produced using a conventional ceramic production process. After a combined method of wet ball milling and dry pressing, these samples were sintered at 1500 degrees C and 1600 degrees C for 1hr and 5hrs, respectively. Physical properties, microstructural and phase characterizations of the sintered samples were analyzed using Archimedes method, a scanning electron microscope with energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction technique, respectively. Thereafter, micro Vickers and three-point bending tests were performed. The density, relative density and firing shrinkage of the sintered samples increased with addition of M and AT and the increased sintering temperature at each time. However, both porosity and loss of water properties determined were inversely proportional to M and AT addition and sintering temperature and time increase. An increase in M and AT content influenced the grain morphology as is presented in the microstructures of the composites produced thus bringing about a rise in grain size, as well as homogeneity and density in YSZ samples. Promising results were observed with the Vickers and bending strength in the mullite reinforced YSZ samples sintered at 1600 degrees C for 5hrs due to mullite addition, which provides excellent mechanical features to the YSZ ceramic composites.

    Thermomechanical properties of aluminium titanate (Al2TiO5)-reinforced forsterite (Mg2SiO4) ceramic composites
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018) Küçük, İsrafil; Boyraz, Tahsin; Gokce, Hasan; Ovecoglu, Mustafa Lutfi
    Aluminium titanate (Al2TiO5)-reinforced forsterite (Mg2SiO4) ceramics were prepared by the powder metallurgy route including sintering the Al2TiO5-reinforced Mg2SiO4 green compacts at 1600 degrees C. Sivas talc (3MgO center dot 4SiO(2)center dot H2O) was used as a precursor for the Mg2SiO4 ceramics due to its excellent mechanical properties like thermal shock and abrasion resistance. In order to investigate thermal shock resistance behaviour, the as prepared samples were quenched in water and assessed. Investigations were carried out to study the effect of Al2TiO5 addition on microstructural, physical, thermal and mechanical properties of Al2TO5-reinforced Mg2SiO4 ceramic composites. The thermal and mechanical properties were examined before and after thermal shock tests. The results showed that the best thermal expansion coefficient (0.76 x 10(-6) (K-1)) and thermal shock resistance (6.82 GPa) of the Al2TiO5-reinforced forsterite (Mg2SiO4) ceramic composites were obtained after thermal shock test, which were better than those of the other concentrations of the Al2TiO5-reinforced forsterite (Mg2SiO4) ceramic composites. These findings suggest that 20 wt% Al2TiO5-reinforced forsterite (Mg2SiO4) ceramic composites possess good thermomechanical properties and thus might be suitable for potential applications such as filter material, pharmaceuticals, cosmetic manufacturing, optical, and chemical devices.
