Abstract:
1. A mold for synthesizing ceramic powder using spark plasma sintering, suitable for use as a mold system which is subjected to spark plasma sintering, comprising: a hollow cylindrical mold body into which a powder material used to synthesize ceramic powder is charged; and a pair of mold covers securely fastened to a top and a bottom of the hollow cylindrical mold body, respectively, wherein the pair of mold covers are configured such that a surface thereof in contact with the hollow cylindrical mold body is formed to be planar so that pressure is not directly applied to the powder material even when pressure is applied to the mold system during synthesis of the powder material, and each of the mold covers is in direct contact with its respective end of the hollow cylindrical mold body, wherein each of the mold covers has a recess into which at least a portion of the hollow cylindrical mold body is inserted, and an inner diameter of the recess is greater than an outer diameter of the hollow cylindrical mold body.
