Abstract
The science of “heat treatment”, i.e., the control of microstructure by use of subsolidus reactions involving changes of composition or symmetry or both, and attendant improvement of properties, has received less attention in ceramic systems than in metallic systems. (Typically, little microstructural control is available in ceramics after they have been sintered.) However, modification of properties through controlled heat treatment has much potential in ceramics; this paper summarizes results of one such study — precipitation hardening in spinel.
