Cold Sintering: Progress, Challenges, and Future Opportunities

Abstract: Cold sintering is an unusually low-temperature process that uses a transient transport phase, which is most often liquid, and an applied uniaxial force to assist in densification of a powder compact. By using this approach, many ceramic powders can be transformed to high-density monoliths at temperatures far below the melting point. In this article, we present a summary of cold sintering accomplishments and the current working models that describe the operative mechanisms in the context of other strategies for… Show more

“…One means of achieving this is with a low pH, whereas another is dissolving Zn(OAc) 2 . The transport mechanism for densification appears to be the exchange of Zn 2+ from one grain surface to a second grain surface into and out of the acetate solution facilitated by the uniaxial pressure applied …”

“…Developed largely in academia, cold sintering is realized by adding a small quantity of water (or other solvent) to ceramic powder, so that densification occurs through the partial dissolution of solid particles in transient aqueous phase, followed by re-precipitation. [57][58][59][60] See Figure 9. The process requires some pressure (typically less than 200 MPa) and heating, typically to less than 300°C-much lower than used in conventional sintering.…”

“…Given the recent success in cold sintering ceramics, the present work aims to extend cold sintering to the CeO 2 system. A first attempt was made by Charoonsuk et al using water as a transient solvent for cold sintering at 180°C, 500 MPa and up to 60 hours, followed by an annealing step at 1100°C to obtain 96% dense CeO 2 samples …”
