Abstract
A method of producing lithium aluminosilicate (LAS) ceramics, which uses a mixing powder of lithium carbonate, aluminum oxide, and silicon oxide as a raw material powder. After being mixed by ball milling and baked dry, the raw material powder is processed with a calcinations process such that the raw material powder becomes a precursor. The precursor is then pressed into the green ceramic. Significantly, the high heat conducting metal sheets are tightly attached above and below the surfaces of the ceramic during sinter and heat-treatment processes. A solid-state sinter process is performed with the green ceramic. Next, the ceramic is treated with a proper heat-treatment process. Since the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic are capped with the high heat conducting metal, the ceramics are uniformly heated during all the heating processes. The ceramics of this invention exhibit more uniform properties and stable structure, which allow them to be used as temperature compensation components and athermal products.
