Abstract

The compressibility of mass with a particular composition — from fused zirconia, stabilized by ~ 10 % yttrium oxide, as well as the properties of samples from it depending on its moisture (2.5; 3.0; 3.5; 4.0; 4.5 %) and specific pressure (50, 75, 100 N/mm2) have been investigated. The optimum moisture content of the forming mass (3.5—4.0 %) and pressure (100 N/mm2) were established, providing fresh-formed samples with the maximum possible for the given mass apparent density of 4.78—4.79 g/cm3, dried — with an apparent density of 4.71—4.72 g/cm3 and with an apparent density, open porosity and cold crushing strength of the fired samples respectively 4.66—4.67 g/cm3, 21.0—21.4 %, 38.6—39.0 N/mm2. As a result of the carried out studies, the production technology of TsIS-1T brand products from fused zirconia, stabilized by ~ 10 % yttrium oxide, by the method of semi-dry pressing was improved. This technology ensures a reduction in open porosity of these products by ~ 2—3 % and an increase in their cold crushing strength by ~ 11.4 % (rel.) The use of these products in single crystal growing plants will provide their higher durability in service and the operation duration of these high temperature plants.
