Abstract
The sintering behavior of an alumina green body was measured at three different heating rates using a high-temperature pushrod dilatometer. The measurement results were evaluated with a complex thermokinetic an alysis program. Using the calculated kinetic parameters, predictions w ere made for the behavior under rate controlled sintering conditions. The resulting temperature profiles were compared with the results of a ctual rate controlled sintering measurements. Good agreement was found between the experimental data and the thermokinetic prediction. (C) 1 998 Elsevier Science B.V.
