needs review
Unconfined compressive strength testing demonstrated increasing mechanical strength with increasing compaction pressure, with 7.5 MPa yielding the highest strength of 56 MPa.
Unconfined compressive strength testing showed that mechanical strength increased significantly with increasing sintering temperature, with 1120 C giving the highest strength of 37.0 4.8 MPa.
