13.3 Kinetics of the sintering of nanosized particles
13.3.1 Sintering temperature
Notably, the sintering of nanosized particles occurs at lower temperatures
than the sintering of conventional micron-sized or submicron-sized
powders. Sintering temperature is, in general, a loose concept, referring to
the entire temperature range of densification. In order to be specific and
