Sintering of Composite Ceramic based on Corundum with Additive in the Al2O3-TiO2-MnO System

In this paper, the effect of the additive content in the Al₂O₃-TiO₂-MnO system on the sintering of composite ceramics based on corundum was studied. The samples were pressed by uniaxial semi-dry pressing under 100 MPa and sintered at 1500 °С and 1550 °С. The properties of composite ceramics for porosity and flexural strength were studied. When the amount of additives increases, the properties of composite ceramic samples are better than samples without additives.
