Having low thermal conductivity and the same composition with transparent alumina ceramics and sapphire, porous alumina ceramics with. high purity are expected to lower the high energy consumption without contamination, in this paper, porous alumina ceramics with porosity of 75.3% -81.9% and impurity less than 0. 1% were prepared by a foaming method combined with gelcasting, using high purity alumina powders as raw materials. By changing the amount of foaming agent and the solid content, the microstructure and properties of porous ceramics were tailored. The compressive strength of the porous ceramics ranged .front ( 22.4 ±2.5) MPa to (48. 1± 3. 1 ) MPa, the thermal conductivity of porous ceramics at 1 000℃ ranged between 0. 41 -0. 65 W · ( m · K)^-1.展开更多

In this study,the preparation and the application of different alumina based porous ceramics were briefly introduced. Alumina based porous ceramics were prepared combined foaming method with gelcasting,sol- gel process or cement curing process. The influences of different preparation methods on the sintering shrinkage, porosity, phase composition, microstructure, compressive strength and thermal conductivity were discussed. Alumina based porous ceramics with relatively high strength and low thermal conductivity could be obtained through the above mentioned methods. Compared with the traditional lining materials,about 40% energy could be saved when they were used as the furnace wall.展开更多
