Abstract
- Compressive strength is one of the most important mechanical properties for ceramic foams but the dependence of compressive strength of highly porous ceramic foams on porosity remains unclear up to now, especially for the ceramic foams with porosity above 94%. In this paper, the relationship between compressive strength and porosity of ceramic foams with high porosity in the range of 79–98% was studied for the first time. The alumina ceramic foams and zirconia foams were prepared by particle-stabilized foaming method using sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS) as foaming agent. It was found that the function relation between compressive strength and porosity depended on porosity level. Specifically, compressive strength of ceramic foams fitted well with Rice Model when the porosity ranged from 79% to 94%. When the porosity increased above 95%, compressive strength of ceramic foams showed linear relation to porosity, which was probably due to the characteristic of highly porous ceramic foams with thin and lamellate cell wall.
