The phase evolution during reaction sintering of stoichiometric mixtur
es of CaCO3/(6-x)Al2O3/ xFe(2)O(3) was investigated. The microstructur
al evolution as a function of iron content and firing temperature was
also studied. It was found that the appearance during sintering of sev
eral intermediate phases (CA, CA, and CAF(2)) as well as the phase evo
lution during the Ca0.6(Al,Fe)(2)O-3 solid solution formulation and th
e final microstructures after sintering, call be explained by means of
the CaO-Al2O3-Fe2O3 phase equilibrium diagram. (C) 1998 Elsevier Scie
