Abstract

Abstract Porous Al2O3 ceramics with bimodal pore size distribution were fabricated by partial sintering with monodispersed PMMA micro balls as pore agent. The porosity of the fabricated porous Al2O3 is increased with content of the pore agent increase, the bulk density and bending strength are decreased, accordingly. Relations between pressure drop and flow velocity of the air through the porous Al2O3 fit the Forchheimer's equation well for compressible fluid. Due to pores introduced by the pore agent, the Darcy permeability and inertial permeability of the porous Al2O3 are increased obviously. For given flow velocity, with increase of the PMMA content, the Forchheimer's number of the fluid through the porous Al2O3 is decreased, which results in decrease of the inertial resistance ratio to the total pressure drop. The porous Al2O3 ceramics with pores introduced by the monodispersed PMMA micro balls show higher permeability while the filtration selectivity is not deteriorated.
