Abstract

Effect of glass infiltration distance, controlled by particle sizes of glass and ceramic filler, and green density, on densification kinetics of glass-filled ceramics has been studied using borosilicate glass-cordierite as the model system. Within the particle size range investigated, the densification is found to be significantly enhanced by increasing cordierite size, reducing glass size and increasing green density. The above results are attributed to both increased driving force of densification by reducing glass particle size, and decreased glass redistribution distance by either increasing green density of compacts or increasing the particle size ratio between cordierite and glass powders.
