Abstract: Sintering characteristics of Ca-doped lanthanum chromite [La(Ca)CrO3] powder, prepared by gel-casting process were studied by measuring density and the evaluation of micro structural information. Bi2O3 is found to be an effective sintering additive for this material. The amount of Bi2O3 is altered to investigate Bi2O3 effect on the properties of La0.7Ca0.3CrO3. The amount of 10% (mass fraction) Bi2O3 is suitable to increase sinter-ability of La0.7Ca0.3CrO3. Increased concentration of point defects arising form substitution of Bi in La site is the plausible cause of enhanced sintering. Measurement of electrical conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient indicate that the doping of Bi2O3 does not have any significant effect on these properties.
