Distribution of Cerium Ion in Cordierite Ceramics and Its Effect on Structure of Cordierite Crystal

Cerium addition plays an important role in sintering, transformation and phasicochemical properties of cordierite ceramics. The present work aims at studying the distribution of Ce4+ in cordierite ceramics and its effect on the structure of cordierite crystal by means of differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electronic microscope (SEM) so as to clarify the behavior of Ce4+. Results show that Ce4+ can exist in two forms of CeO2 particles and solid solution in Ce4+ -modified cordierite ceramics by the sol-gel method. The CeO2 particles separately distribute in the cordierite matrix. Ce4+ dissolves little into cordierite crystal, resulting in a decrease of lattice constants ofthe crystal. This kind of distribution behavior of Ce4+ makes us to easily tailor the properties of the cordieritc ceramics.
