Description
Summary:Semiconductor and display production equipment requires highly plasma-resistant components, where α -Al 2 O 3 plays a vital role in shielding and insulating. In the present study, the physicochemical properties of a new domestic α -Al 2 O 3 powder were compared with those of imported ones currently used in the Korean industry. The particle size distribution revealed finer particles in the domestic powder that were generated during dry milling than the imported powder resulting in a broad size distribution and high surface area. An effort was made to eliminate the fine particles by heat treatment because they increase the viscosity of a slurry for wet processing and induce a low green and sintered density of the final products. In addition to the effects of heat treatment on the powder characteristics, the dispersion behavior of an aqueous Al 2 O 3 slip was examined systematically upon the addition of each polymeric processing additive for filter pressing.
