The total contents of Yb2O3- Mg O added were 1 mol%,2 mol%,4 mol%,6 mol%,8 mol%,10 mol%,12 mol%,14 mol%,keeping the Yb2O3-Mg O molar ratio of 1 ∶ 1 steadily. Curves of the relative density,thermal conductivity and bending strength plotted against the aids content present a ‘mountain＇shape with a maximum at nearly 10 mol% aids. The fracture toughness increased with the amounts of additives up to10 mol% and decreased slightly thereafter. The mechanical properties and thermal conductivity were almost proportional to the amount of the additives before10 mol%. When the content of aids exceeded 10 mol%,it would weaken the mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of the ceramics. The optimum content of Yb2O3- Mg O was 10 mol% by gas pressure sintering（ 0. 6MPa） at 1 850 ℃ for 4 h,which led to a relative density of 98. 9%,a flexural strength of（ 966 ± 38）MPa as well as a fracture toughness of（ 6. 29 ± 0. 29）MPa·m1 /2and thermal conductivity of 82 W /（ m·K）.展开更多
