摘要

A series of novel glass–ceramic/ceramic composites, composed of a low softening ZnO–B2O3–SiO2 (ZBS) glass–ceramic and SiO2/ZrO2 ceramics, were fabricated for low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) applications. The effects of the ZrO2/SiO2 mass ratio on sintering behavior, microstructure, crystallization behavior and resultant properties of the ZBS/SiO2/ZrO2 (ZSZ) composites were systematically investigated. The results indicate that the major crystalline phase Zn2SiO4 remained stable with increasing ZrO2/SiO2 mass ratio, while a minor ZrSiO4 phase precipitated. Variations in the Zn2SiO4/ZrSiO4 phase content resulted in an increase in the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) value from 2.75 × 10–6/K to 3.81 × 10–6/K, alongside a rise in flexural strength from 120.8 MPa to 152.3 MPa. The optimal properties were achieved in the ZSZ composite with a ZrO2/SiO2 mass ratio = 4:5, sintered at 900 °C for 30 min: \({\varepsilon }_{r}\) ε r = 5.52, tanδ = 6.92 × 10–4, CTE = 3.81 × 10–6/K, flexural strength (152.3 MPa) and excellent compatibility with Ag electrodes.
