Two Al2O3 powders with different particle sizes were sintered by pulse electric current sintering method at different heating rates. Rapid heating reduced grain growth rate, and the level of reduction depended on the initial powder size and sintering temperature. Under certain conditions, rapid heating could enhance densification.
