Rapid synthesis and sintering of nanostructured MgSiO 3 -Mg 2 SiO 4 composites was investigated via a high-frequency induction heating sintering process. The advantage of this process is that it enables very quick densification to near theoretical density and prohibition of grain growth in nanostructured materials. High-density nanostructured MgSiO 3 -Mg 2 SiO 4 composites were produced by simultaneous application of 80 MPa pressure under an induced output power of 15 kW within 2 min. The grain sizes and hardness of MgSiO 3 -Mg 2 SiO 4 composites were investigated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
