Anisotropic shrinkage of cordierite-type glass powder cylindrical compacts
Abstract
The pronounced anisotropy of shrinkage in the axial and the radial direction, observed in earlier studies on the sintering behavior of cordierite-type glass powder, is investigated in detail. It is shown that a planar orientation of the pore/solid interface exists that gives rise to an oriented shrinkage in the radial direction. The results show that the axial-to-diametral shrinkage ratio increases from a value of 0.3 to approximately 0.7 with increasing density, and that particle size and particle shape of the glass powders have little influence on shrinkage anisotropy. © 1988, Center for the Study of Law and Religion at Emory University.
