Abstract
In order to improve the compressibility of fine zirconia and alumina powders, powders were surface-treated with aluminate, silane and titanate coupling agents. The surface modification reduced both powder/powder friction and powder/die-wall friction, which increased the density of the compacts. At 2% additions, the effectiveness of the coupling agents on density increase was in the order, silane > titanate > aluminate. In zirconia systems with different titanate concentrations it was found the optimum amount of coupling agent could be approximated by the amount required for monolayer coverage on the powder surface.
