Assertion (A): Hot pressing is used despite producing only simple shapes one at a time.
Reason (R): It reaches full density at lower temperature and so gives a finer grain size.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Correct answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Both are true and the reason is why the drawbacks are accepted. Applied pressure adds to the capillary driving force, so full density is reached at a lower temperature and in less time - and since grain growth depends far more steeply on temperature than densification does, the grains stay fine. For a ceramic whose strength depends on grain size, that microstructure justifies producing one simple shape at a time.
