After the powder is formed, a biscuit with good shape is obtained, and then the biscuit is heated at a certain temperature. The biscuit undergoes volume shrinkage and finally becomes a compact sintered body. This process is called sintering. The driving force of alumina ceramic green body sintering is mainly the change of powder surface energy, that is, the surface energy of powder decreases, the surface area decreases, and the ceramic densifies. In the process of ceramic sintering densification, material transfer can be carried out through solid phase diffusion, including surface diffusion, grain boundary diffusion, lattice diffusion, etc. Normal pressure sintering is generally used in industry.
