Thermodilatometric tests have been performed to investigate the shrinkage of green compacts of pure and ZnO-doped 4ZrO2-5TiO2 SnO2 prepared by dry ball milling, flo-deflocculation and coprecipitation. Experiments have shown that the powder preparation procedure has a significant influence on the sintering process. Optimizing the homogeneity composition, which is enhanced from dry ball milling to coprecipitation, raises the starting sintering temperature. The reduction of the dimension of the starting particles increases the sintering rate and the addition of ZnO favours the shrinkage of the green bodies. Coprecipitated products lead to the highest final density because the evaporation of tin oxide on firing is reduced.

Abstract
Thermodilatometric tests have been performed to investigate the shrinkage of green compacts of pure and ZnO-doped 4ZrO2-5TiO2 SnO2 prepared by dry ball milling, flo-deflocculation and coprecipitation. Experiments have shown that the powder preparation procedure has a significant influence on the sintering process. Optimizing the homogeneity composition, which is enhanced from dry ball milling to coprecipitation, raises the starting sintering temperature. The reduction of the dimension of the starting particles increases the sintering rate and the addition of ZnO favours the shrinkage of the green bodies. Coprecipitated products lead to the highest final density because the evaporation of tin oxide on firing is reduced.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
