Densification Mechanisms

Densification Mechanism is a materials science process within the field of ceramic thermodynamics that fundamentally refers to the mechanism by which porous ceramic bodies undergo volume reduction and pore elimination during sintering, distinguished by the specific atomic or molecular pathways—such as diffusion, creep, or plastic flow—driven by thermodynamic forces to achieve increased density and structural coherence.
