Definitions

  • Zirconia is used as a so-called partially or fully stabilized zirconium oxide for the production of ceramic bodies, which are used as components. Examples include medical implants, thermal barrier coatings, pump rotors or mill linings, but also highly stressed and filigree design components. These components are usually produced by various methods of shaping and subsequent sintering at temperatures above 1000 0 C from a ceramic powder.
  • the shaping of the zirconium oxide powder can be carried out by various methods familiar to the person skilled in the art, such as injection and strip casting, extrusion, slip casting or electrophoretic deposition, but also more easily and inexpensively by axial pressing at or in the vicinity of the room temperature (“cold pressing” in contrast) for hot pressing, where axial compression takes place at high temperatures.)
  • a special form of cold pressing is isostatic pressing, wherein the powder is introduced into a flexible container, this sealed and compacted by means of a liquid as a pressure transmitter at pressures between 300 and 2200 bar. This shape is particularly used for large components, in which case the press or sintered body is machined to work out the contour of the component.
  • the pressed parts are sintered over a suitable temperature control over time, whereby the usual contents of organic aids are decomposed and expelled in the form of gases.
  • the aids have a variety of tasks, among others, they act as a lubricant to allow the necessary in the pressing compression plastic displacement of the per se brittle-hard ceramic particles past each other.
  • Other organic aids act as
  • Examples of pressing or sliding aids are paraffin, ester or acid amide waxes
  • examples of binders are polyethylene glycols, polyvinyl alcohols or polyacrylates whose functional group may also be esterified or alkylated
  • a liquid plasticizer is used, for example glycol, glycerol or a low molecular weight polyethylene glycol, in order to make the binding agent plastically deformable. This enumeration is not exhaustive.
  • Inorganic powders with organic auxiliaries are formulations.
  • Zirconia powders having specific surface areas high enough to provide sufficient driving force for pressureless sintering serve as the starting material for isostatic or axial pressing. Common values are between 3 and 50 m2 / g.
  • stabilization in connection with zirconium oxide is meant that in the lattice of the zirconium oxide other metal oxides are dissolved, which as pure oxides another metal:
  • Oxygen ratio have as ZrO2. Usual are Y2O3, MgO, CaO and other oxides from the group of rare earth oxides, as well as combinations of two or more of the aforementioned oxides. Partial stabilization causes a shift in the transition temperature from tetragonal to monoclinic. Since phase transformations of ZrO 2 are associated with volume changes that would lead to the destruction of the ceramic body, industrially manufactured
  • Ceramic body mainly made of partially or fully stabilized zirconia whose conversion is frozen to the monoclinic lattice type at room temperature.
  • other oxides may also be included which form crystalline or glassy foreign phases, e.g. A12O3, or silicates.
  • a partially or fully stabilized zirconia powder for the production of ceramic bodies should have the lowest possible monoclinic phase content, since it is feared that a high monoclinic phase content is an indication of a poor distribution of the Stabilizing oxide in the zirconia lattice, which leads to diffusion transport during sintering and also to tensions, which in turn reduces the strength of the sintered.
  • the strength is usually determined by bending fracture test on sintered and ground bars according to ISO 843 (4-point bending strength) or JIS R 1601 (3-point bending strength). This doctrine has led to the fact that the production process of partially stabilized zirconia powder to point out to have the lowest possible monoclinic phase content.
  • the formulation is carried out with organic auxiliaries. If cold isostatic or axial pressing is intended as intended use and the powder is thus dry required for the indirect shaping, the zirconium oxide powder is usually dispersed in a liquid, the required auxiliaries dissolved or dispersed therein, optionally the suspension is then subjected to milling by means of a crushing unit, and then dried by sputtering or fluidized bed drying to form a formulation. This produces agglomerates in the range of 50 to 1000 microns dimension.
  • Agglomeration is not absolutely necessary for cold isotstatic pressing, where the formulation can also be prepared so that the zirconium oxide is wetted with a liquid which contains or disperses the required auxiliaries, and the moist powder is dried in a tumble or paddle dryer, for example becomes.
  • the organic aids remain largely after drying, unless unwanted evaporation losses occur.
  • Formulated zirconia powders often still contain organic adjuvants which facilitate the preparation of the dispersion, e.g. Condensers, defoamers, surfactants or reagents for pH adjustment.
  • the liquid used to prepare the dispersion can be either water, alcohols, hydrocarbons, or a ketone or mixtures thereof.
  • organic liquids are an industry standard, it has some disadvantages. These include, for example, flammability, explosiveness of vapors when mixed with air, and adverse health effects on exposed workers.
  • Water is also considered as a liquid, but difficulties arise here because the granules obtained are very hard due to strong interactions of the powder particles with each other (this phenomenon is used, for example, in the production of pottery, where it is the broken body after drying - A -
  • powder formulations for ceramics of zirconium oxides are hitherto preferably prepared from organic liquids as a dispersing liquid by drying.
  • the bending strength of sintered ceramic bodies which is an essential quality criterion, depends on several factors. The most important influencing factors are microstructural defects, as shown by pores or inclusions. Thus, high sintered density and absence of foreign phases, inclusions and macropores are necessary prerequisites. However, a high sintering density is only achieved if the driving force of the sintering is high enough. This is achieved by the specific surface area of the zirconium oxide powder or by its optically determinable primary particle size. Another is a high density. Furthermore, an isotropic pressure density after pressing is necessary, because pressing errors or areas with low compactness produce macropores, sintering distortion or
  • Tensions in the ceramic body A strength of at least 800 MPa, better still greater than 900 MP according to ISO 843 is to be strived for, so that a universal usability of the components is given.
  • the hitherto known zirconium oxide powders as formulations with organic auxiliaries can indeed be produced to give sintered bodies having sufficient strength, but not in net shape technology by means of axial pressing.
  • a large proportion of hard machining is nowadays inevitably required, which has to be carried out consuming with expensive diamond or cBN tools.
  • green state processing may be performed, but this requires green strength and results in powder losses that are difficult to recycle.
  • organic auxiliaries zirconia which can be processed without sacrificing the properties of the sintered body by means of axial compression in net shape technology with little waste to sintered parts without excessive hard machining. Therefore, a sufficiently high cohesiveness is required. This depends almost entirely on the organic aids used, since the ceramic particles, in contrast to metal powders, to behave neither ductile nor kaltversch spabar when compacting and the cohesiveness must be prepared entirely by the organic auxiliaries.
  • Compact density is a measure of the deformation resistance and should be possible low, preferably less than 200 MPa at 50% of the theoretical density
  • the coefficient of friction (a measure of the friction of the powder on the wall of the pressing tool during the compression process, the value should be as close as possible to one, otherwise wear of the dies occurs),
  • the cohesiveness (a measure of the inner cohesion of the compact when ejected from the mold, the value).
  • the cohesiveness is calculated from the ratio of the green strength and the required ejection force, therefore the value should be at least close to one, but at least above 0.8. Otherwise, damage to the compact during ejection is to be expected
  • the actual green density measured at the ejected pressing may be less than the predetermined green density due to the back elongation.
  • Another measure of compressibility is the so-called Hausner Ratio, which is the ratio between tapping and bulk density. The larger the Hausner ratio is beyond the value of one, the lower the resistance to deformation of a powder.
  • Another measure of compressibility is the pressing pressure necessary to achieve a specific press density. This is important for industrial applications because it determines the necessary pressing force in large parts. If the compact density is too low, because, for example, not enough strong press in axial pressing is available, so no sufficient sintering density is achieved. Since then remain pores, the strength of the ceramic part is weakened.
  • Zirconia powder with organic additives wherein the pressing pressure necessary to achieve a green density of at least 50% of the theoretical density is 200 MPa or less and the cohesiveness is 0.7 or more.
