A kinetics study reveals that the activation energy of crystalli- zation （Ea） calculated by the methods of Kissinger and Marotta are 438 kJ·mol^-1 and 459 kJ·mol^-1, respectively. The Avrami parameter （n） is estimated to be approximately equal to 1, corresponding to the surface crystallization mechanism. X-ray diffraction （XRD） analysis shows that the anorthite and cordierite crystals are precipitated from the parent glass as major phases. Anorthite crystals first form at 850℃, whereas the μ-cordierite phase appears after heat treatment at 950℃. Thereafter, the cordierite allotropically transforms to α-cordierite at 1000℃. Complete densification is achieved at 950℃; however, the density slightly decreases at higher temperatures, reaching a stable value of 2.63 kg·m^-3 between 1000℃ and 1100℃, The highest Vickers hardness of 6 GPa is also obtained at 950℃. However, a substantial decrease in hardness is recorded at 1000℃; at higher sintering temperatures, it slightly increases with increasing temperature as the ct-cordierite crystallizes.展开更多
