Abstract
Dependence of the freeze-drying process condition on microstructure of porous W and pore formation mechanism were studied. Camphene slurries with WO_3 contents of 10 vol% were prepared by milling at 50°C with a small amount of dispersant. Freezing of a slurry was done in Teflon cylinder attached to a copper bottom plate cooled at -25°C. Pores were generated subsequently by sublimation of the camphene during drying in air for 48 h. The green body was hydrogen-reduced at 800°C for 30 min, and sintered in the furnace at 900°C for 1 h. After heat treatment in hydrogen atmosphere, WO_3 powders were completely converted to metallic W without any reaction phases. The sintered samples showed large pores with the size of about 70µm which were aligned parallel to the camphene growth direction. Also, the internal wall of large pores and near bottom part of specimen had relatively small pores with dendritic structure due to the growth of camphene dendrite depending on the degree of nucleation and powder rearrangement in the slurry.
