Question:

A ceramic part made from MgO is sintered successfully at 1700°C in 90 minutes. To minimize thermal stresses during the process, we plan to reduce the temperature to 1500°C. Which of the following will limit the rate at which sintering can be performed: diffusion of magnesium ions or diffusion of oxygen ions? What time will be required at the lower temperature?
