Abstract
ABSTRACTBoron carbide has been sintered to 95% of theoretical density in less than 12 minutes without the use of sintering aides by heating to 2000°C with 2.45 GHz microwave radiation. An average grain size of about 20 μm resulted. Twins and microcracking were present in the microstructure. Energy usage for microwave sintering was found to be 18% less than for inductive hot-pressing.
