METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF NANOCRYSTALLINE SINTERED BODIES MADE FROM ALPHA ALUMINIUM OXIDE

摘要

Nanocrystalline sintered bodies, and a method of making same, said sintered bodies based on a 95 to 100% content of alpha-aluminum oxide by weight, a Vickers hardness greater than or equal to 17.5 GPa, and a crystal structure where the average primary crystal size of the alpha-aluminum oxide is less than or equal to 100 nanometers.
