Abstract
The mechanism by which alcohol washing of ceramic powders produces “soft” agglomerates has been investigated by studying the interaction of ethanol with hydrous ZrO2 powders using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Unambiguous evidence of ethoxide formation has been found, which apparently prevents bond formation between adjacent particles and thus the formation of “hard” agglomerates.Keywords
