Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to shorten sintering time in order to improve productivity and simultaneously to obtain high-quality ceramic component without fear of surface damage by retaining ceramic formed article with a same jig from degreasing process to sintering process. CONSTITUTION:Green formed articles 5 obtained by kneading ceramic powder such as Si3N4 with a resin based binder and forming the kneaded article are piled up on a bottom board 1 at plural stages and in multiple rows while preventing the piled formed articles from breaking down using fixing plates 2. The bottom board 1 on which these green formed articles 5 are laminated in released state is arranged in a degreasing furnace and heated to volatilize most of organic solvent. Then after cooling of furnace is completed, the degreased article 7 is taken out from the furnace together with the bottom board 1 and enclosing frame 3 is put on the bottom board 1 so that inner face thereof may be fixed to a fixing plate 2. A lid plate 4 is further fitted into the upper end of unclosing frame 3 and jig is arranged in a sintering furnace and the degreased article 7 is sintered to provide the ceramic component.

(Prior Art) There are various methods for manufacturing ceramic parts, such as a molding method, a rubber press method, an extrusion molding method, an injection molding method, and a casting method. In order to improve the formability of ceramic powder in these forming methods, a wide variety of organic materials are used.
It is added as a binder, dispersing agent, wetting agent, lubricant, plasticizer, etc. A molded product of a mixture of these organic materials and ceramic powder is called a green molded product.

The organic material in this green molded body is gradually heated in a furnace during the degreasing process to be volatile and decomposed. After this degreasing, a sintering process is performed. In this way, the degreasing process and the sintering process are performed in separate processes. For example, in the degreasing process, ceramic powder (nail powder) made of the same material as the green compacts is placed in a degreasing container made of a stainless steel mesh and frame, and the green compacts are buried or placed one by one in the powder. In this state, degreasing was carried out in an inert gas atmosphere or air stream. In addition, in the subsequent sintering process, the degreased green molded body is transferred to a firing container made of the same material as the green molded body or another type of ceramic that does not affect sintering.
Sintering was performed in an inert gas or air atmosphere, or in a pressurized atmosphere.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, when moving from the degreasing process to the sintering process, the degreased green molded body must be transferred to a sintering container, and the nail powder must be removed from the green molded body. It is necessary to wipe it off, which is not only a very troublesome work, but also there is a risk of damaging the green molded body. Furthermore, nail powder becomes contaminated with carbon residue after being used several times, and therefore has the disadvantage that it must be recovered by heating in air at about 100°C.

The resin binder contains polystyrene, polybutyl methacrylate, 1 to 10 fft parts of a polyamide hot melt adhesive, and paraffin in 23 to 30 parts by weight of the resin binder. Paraffin-based and low-molecular-weight wax-based binders melt and exude from the molded product during heating and temperature rise, so they need to be adsorbed with nail powder. In addition, nail powder is effective in creating an atmosphere for the pyrolyzed product, and suppresses the rate of thermal loss of the binder during heating and temperature rise, thereby preventing the occurrence of cracks. However, the resin binder used in this example had a small blending ratio of low molecular weight components, thereby increasing the strength of the green molded product and eliminating the need for packing powder. Next, the green molded bodies (5)...- are stacked on the floor plate (1) in several complicated stages and in multiple rows. At this time, the green molded bodies (5) are prevented from collapsing by the locking plates (2), (2). However, no nail powder is used, and a gap exists between each green molded body (5).
