Conclusions An investigation was carried out of the effect of added MnO2, ZnO, CuO, and Sb2O5 on the structure and sintering of SnO2 at 1300–1400°C in which it was shown that the SnO2 forms solid solutions of substitution and compounds with these additives. The addition of large amounts of MnO2, ZnO, CuO, and Sb2O5 impairs the sintering of SnO2; small quantities of these oxides, more especially in combinations with each other, promote the sintering of tin oxide ceramics at 1400–1550°C to a near-theoretical density. The improvement in the sintering process is the result of the formation of solid solutions and the development of a liquid phase. It was established that the sintering additives exert a mutual influence on their solubility in SnO2.
