Abstract

Abstract Three group samples were used to investigate the effects of particle size and dispersion methods of In 2 O 3 ‐SnO 2 mixed powders on the sintering properties of ITO ceramics by BET , SEM , XRD , and EPMA , etc. High‐density (99.8% of TD ) ITO ceramics, with dimensions of 350 × 250 × 8 mm 3 for the industrial application, were obtained by the mixed powders of In 2 O 3 calcined at 1000°C and SnO 2 with BET 6.0 ± 0.5 m 2 /g and collocation use of ball mill for 300 minutes, stirred mill for 60 minutes, and sand mill for 3 minutes. The results indicate that: (i) the larger the SnO 2 /In 2 O 3 particle size ratio, the higher the density of ITO ceramics, (ii) the dispersion of mechanical ball‐mill methods for nanosized In 2 O 3 and SnO 2 powders is beneficial to the densification and structural homogeneity, and (iii) the smaller the relative grain size, the more uniform the distribution of grain size.
