The specimens were sintered by transient liquid phase formation under the application at 650ºC of 200 V cm-1 AC electric field for various current density, current elapsed time, and lithium fluoride content. Low electric current densities coupled with long application times produced homogeneous specimens. Variations in the electric current density and current elapsed time allowed to obtain sample densification in the 60%-75% range. Impedance spectroscopy measurements were carried out to estimate the relative pore content, evaluating the product of the blocking factor αR (=Rg/(Rg +Rgb), R, g and gb stand for resistance, grain and grain boundary, respectively) to the frequency factor αf (= fgb/fg, f is the characteristic frequency), which is proportional to the blocker volume, i.e., the porosity. A direct correspondence between αR•αf and the apparent porosity, obtained after determining the apparent density by the Archimedes method, was observed.298-298openAccessResumo de eventos científicos0000-0002-8598-279Xhttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-8598-279X
