Abstract
The complex interrelations between processing, microstructure and elec trical and mechanical properties are considered for mullite-cordierite composites. Fabrication procedures using mixed powders or routes base d on sol-gel precursors are presented, along with the phase evolution, densification and microstructural formation. Final microstructures (i ncluding porosities and grain sizes) are correlated to the mechanical (hardness, toughness and strength) and electrical (dielectric constant ) properties.
