Method for the production of transparent, polycrystalline alumina with a yellowish color tone

摘要

A method for the production of shaped bodies of transparent polycrystalline alumina having a yellowish color tone. A green body is formed using pure, fine-grained alumina. The auxiliary agents are burned out of the green body. The green body is treated in such a way as to produce a closed surface on the shaped body. The body is compacted to a transparent, polycrystalline alumina body. Finally, the body is annealed in air to impart a yellowish color tone to the body.
