ABSTRACT:
Composite powders for spinels, MgO.nAl.sub.2 O.sub.3 (n=1 and 2), are synthesized hydrothermally using commercially available hydroxide reactants. The synthesis is carried out in an aqueous suspension within an autoclave under a pressure of 4 Mega-Pascals (MPa) and at a corresponding saturated steam temperature of 523.degree. K. Powder characterization has shown that the particle size ranges from 2 to 10 .mu.m. Sintering of preformed green bodies comprising compressed powder, without the use of additives, is then carried out at 1873.degree. K. in one atmosphere, resulting in a spinel having a density 94% of theorietical. Structure and microstructure have been studied by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, and compressive strength of the resulting spinels has been determined.
