Schematic diagram of multi-field coupled sintering

Caption

Field-assisted sintering technology has revolutionized materials processing by integrating temperature, mechanical, and electrical fields to achieve unprecedented densification efficiency and microstructural control. Recent advances in techniques such as hot oscillatory pressing, cold sintering, high/ultra-high pressure sintering, spark plasma sintering, ultrafast high-temperature sintering, and flash sintering have enabled the fabrication of previously unattainable materials, including ultrafine-grained ceramics, nanostructured composites, and functionally graded materials.
