Abstract
Densification and microstructure for Ce0.9Gd0.1O1.95-δ and trivalent co-doped CeO2 (Ce0.9Gd0.06Bi0.04O1.95-δ) were investigated. The sinterability of co-doped nano-crystalline CeO2 was heightened compared to Gd-doped CeO2 according to the dilatometer measurements. The activation energy for densification was 745 and 419kJmol-1 for Gd-doped CeO2 and co-doped CeO2, respectively. The improved sintering behavior was attributed to the lower activation energy of co-doped CeO2. Investigations on the grain growth in the ceramics showed the suppressing effects of co-doped CeO2. The grain growth kinetics study indicated that the grain growth exponent, m, was 3 for Gd-doped CeO2, and 4 for co-doped CeO2, respectively.
