Abstract
A recently developed shock-sintering technique was employed to fabricate dense titania (TiO2) ceramics. The densification and grain-growth behaviors as well as the anatase-to-rutile transformation of a nanocrystalline TiO2 powder without any additives were investigated as a function of sintering temperature and/or sintering time. It has been shown that densification proceeds simultaneously with phase transformation. At 1100°C for a sintering time of 2 min, a 100% density was achieved, while 98% anatase was transformed into rutile. On the other hand, significant grain growth was observed to occur at temperatures above 1100°C.
