Research on Growth and Deformation Mechanisms in Single Crystal Spinel

Abstract

The first phases of a continuing program of research on growth and deformation processes in magnesium-aluminate spinel are described. Spinel forming reactions, structure and properties of spinel, synthesis of spinel-feed materials (including a study of the effects of irradiation on spinel formation), techniques and apparatus for crystal growth with Verneuil oxyhydrogen and R F plasms devices, and the effect of atmosphere on precipitation hardening of alumina-rich spinel have been studied. The report includes a summary of structural and physical properties of MgAl2O4 spinel.
