Abstract

Aluminum nitride green sheets were prepared by aqueous tape casting. The characteristics of a treated AlN were studied in aqueous ball-milling media. The oxygen content picked up with the increase of ball-milling time. It was noted that the oxygen content of AlN powder with the dispersant DP270 was lower than that of AlN powder without the dispersant DP270. The isoelectric points of the treated AlN with and without DP270 were, respectively, at pH 3.35 and pH 3.90. The dispersant DP270 not only efficiently dispersed AlN powder in water to form a stable suspension, but also formed a coat onto AlN surface to limit hydrolysis of the AlN powder. The tape casting slurry exhibited a typical shear-thinning behavior. Aqueous AlN green tape had a smooth surface and a narrow pore size distribution. Its relative density was 52.6%. No other crystalline phase was detected by XRD except for AlN and sintering aid yttria in AlN green sheet.
