(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the conventional sintering method described above, for example, in the case of oxide ceramic powder, the higher the sintering temperature, the more the crystals of the particles grow, making it difficult to use as a material for sintered products. Properties, especially mechanical properties, deteriorate. Although sintering may be carried out by adding an appropriate amount of a crystal growth inhibitor to the material, this is not preferable as it results in a sintered body containing impurities. In addition, in the case of highly dielectric ceramic products such as titanium oxide, their melting point is extremely high, over 1400℃, and it is difficult to melt them as they are.
Although sintering is carried out by adding an appropriate amount of flux, the resulting product has a correspondingly lower dielectric constant, which is not preferable.

Therefore, it is desirable not to mix the above-mentioned additives into the ceramic sintered body, and in order to produce a sintered body of ceramic particles with a high melting point, it is necessary to heat the ceramic particles at a relatively low temperature without heating it above the melting point. It is preferable that the sintered body is obtained.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, allows particles of 0.1μ or more, such as ceramic particles, to be fixed to each other at a low temperature without melting them, and uses a flux. This method provides a method for manufacturing a high-quality sintered body that can omit the step 1, and involves uniformly mixing a desired amount of ultrafine metal particles into a group of a desired amount of particles with a particle size of 0.1μ or more, and interposing the ultrafine metal particles between the particles. The method is characterized in that a mixture is prepared and heated to a low temperature under vacuum, while oxygen introduced into a vacuum container is brought into contact with the heated mixture.

Immediately after filling the above mixture into a predetermined mold, or by lightly pressing it from the top or applying vibrations using ultrasonic waves to make it relatively densely packed, the mold is heated, and the mixture is Temperature 200~500℃
Heat and maintain at a moderate temperature. On the other hand, introduce oxygen into the vacuum container (at a pressure of about 200 torr). In such a case, the heating will drive out the air in the mixture, allowing oxygen to enter the mixture better. In addition, when the mixture is kept heated at a low temperature, it comes into contact with ultrafine metal particles, oxidizes them, reaches a high temperature in a very short time, and the ultrafine particles melt due to self-heating, and through this melting, metal oxide particles are formed. mutually bound. In this case, by maintaining the temperature as described above, the ultrafine metal particles in the center of the mixture undergo good oxidation combustion similar to the ultrafine metal particles in the surface layer, resulting in uniform sintering as a whole. Thus, by cooling after the oxidative combustion, the metal ultrafine particles become metal oxide ultrafine particles, and if the sintered particles are the same metal oxide, a sintered body of, for example, alumina can be obtained as a whole. Thus, according to the present invention, even if the ceramic particles of 0.1μ or more are high melting point metal oxides,
There is no need to heat it above its melting point, that is, above about 200° C., as in the past. Therefore, a sintered body with good mechanical properties can be obtained without substantially causing crystal growth, and by adding impurities such as crystal growth inhibitors and fluxes, the melting point can be lowered to 1300 to 1400°C. A pure metal oxide sintered body can be obtained economically and easily without the need to lower the quality. As described above, according to the present invention, the ultrafine metal particles are easily combusted by the oxygen in the vacuum container and melted by their own heat of combustion, allowing the metal oxide particles to act as a binder for each other, thereby allowing the metal oxide particles to be heated at a relatively low temperature. Even the best of
The unique feature is that a sintered body can be obtained by raising the temperature to around 1000℃.
