Study On Thermal Stability of Al2O3-ZrO2 Composite Membranes Hao Yanxia, Yang Xujie, Lu Lude, Wang Xin (Chem. Eng. Sch.,Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Nanjing 210094) Abstract Al2O3-ZrO2 composite membranes were prepared by sol-gel process from aluminium iso-propoxide and zirconyl chloride as their precursors. The thermal stability, structure and appearance of composite membranes were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis (TGA-DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscope (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron micrographs (TEM), respectively. The results show that the thermal stability of composite membranes is better than those of pure Al2O3 or ZrO2 membranes. The crystal phase of composite membranes is tetragonal ZrO2 until 1100℃, but monoclinic ZrO2 and alpha Al2O3 appear at 1200℃. Investigation with SEM showed that the membranes were defect-free.
