Abstract

In this study, the effects of different silicon carbide (SiC) particle sizes on the viscosity and curing behavior of alumina (Al2O3) ceramic suspensions were thoroughly investigated. The findings revealed that increasing the size of SiC particles led to a noticeable decrease in the viscosity of the suspension. The Al2O3 ceramic suspension with 0.6 μm SiC powder demonstrated a shallower cure depth and wider excess width compared to the suspension with 1.0 μm SiC powder. Sintering tests demonstrated that the properties of the SiC–Al2O3 ceramics improved at higher sintering temperatures. Moreover, a high-performance honeycomb ceramic was successfully designed and fabricated with a porosity and compressive strength of 30.8 % and 188 MPa, respectively. Finally, the SiC–Al2O3 honeycomb ceramics were effectively applied in heat insulation and oil-water separation applications, demonstrating their remarkable capabilities.
