Abstract
Alumina bodies have been prepared from commercially available, technical grade alumina. Effects of processing parameters and additions like clay, pyrophyllite and magnesium carbonate on densification have been studied in the range of 1500°–1800°C with a view to the utilization of these compositions for electrical applications.The bodies have been evaluated for microstructures and electrical properties at room temperature for 20 MHz. It was observed that alumina bodies containing 91–93% Al2O3 densified to the extent of 3.4–3.5 gm.cm−3 with imperviousness at 1500° to 1600°C. Bodies containing pyrophyllite exhibited dissipation factor as low as 0.0002 along with dielectric constant (K), in the range 6–7, while bodies containing alumina over 97% had a dissipation factor as low as 0.0001 having K in the range 7–8 when densities of these bodies exceeded 3.6 gm.cm−3 and open porosity decreased below 1%.

Role of Solute Segregation at Grain Boundaries During Final–Stage Sintering of Alumina

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the addition of minor amounts of MgO or NiO to Al2O3 inhibits grain growth during sintering by maintaining a high diffusion flux of vacancies from the pores to the grain boundaries.
