Abstract
Green chromium oxide compacts incorporating Ti02 as dopant were
sintered at 1400°, 1450° and 1500cc respectively in conditions simulating
controlled atmosphere firing having a very low p02• Studies
on the microstructure, density, porosity and hardness revealed that
1.0 wt% of Ti02 caused densification to the extent of 95.59 per cent
of theoretical when fired at 1500°C with 0.5 hr soaking. A higher
percentage of TiO., however, resulted in inferior properties.
