Pure cobalt ferrite ceramic powder was prepared using standard solid-state ceramic processing. Uniaxially pressed pure cobalt ferrite discs, sintered under isothermal ramp rate and single dwell time conditions, yielded a maximum theoretical density (%Dth) of <90%. Discs made from finer particle size powder yielded a %Dth of 91.5%. Based on dilatometry analysis, a sintering profile comprising non-isothermal sintering, and two-step sintering was devised, yielding discs with %Dth of 96%. Cylindrical rods of pure cobalt ferrite were cold iso-statically pressed and sintered according to the revised sintering profile. Pycnometry analysis was used to quantify the percentages of open and closed pores in the rods after sintering.

Abstract:Many authors have written in the past regarding the exact causes of breakage and disruption in a high pressure homogeniser, but there has been little agreement. This paper investigates some of the most likely causes of the rupture of the walls of unicellular organisms and offers suggestions obtained from various papers and work carried out.
