Boron induced abnormal grain growth in alumina

In this work, hot-pressing of alumina in contact with hexagonal boron nitride or doped with boron carbide was conducted at 1500 °C for 30 min. After hot-pressing, abnormal grain growth induced by boron diffusion from these substances into alumina was detected, as clearly demonstrated with SEM, EDS,...
