    Abstract

    The influence of additives on the sintering behaviour and properties of ß'-slalon is studied . Ce02 and CaO are used as sintering alds (1, 3 and 5 wt%). The ß'-slalon samples are prepared by reaction sintering tablets of Si3N4, Al3O3 and AIN in a gas pressure sintering furnace. The sintering conditions are optlmized by variatlon of temperature and time in a two-step-sintering process. The products are characterlzed by density, microstructure and hardness measurements.
