Pure and barium titanate (BT) powders doped with different lanthanum concentration were prepared by the polymeric precursor method (Pechini process) which was carried out as a three-stage process from organometallic complexes. Sintering of pressed powders ...
Polycrystalline zirconia (3Y-TZP grade) specimens unreinforced and reinforced with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) or silicon carbide whiskers (SiCws) were processed by powder metallurgy and studied by mechanical spectroscopy. The high-temperature me ...
Despite many years of intensive research there still remain many unresolved questions in powder and ceramic technology. A majority of these issues are linked to interfacial phenomena of atomic scale origin, which makes their experimental investigation very ...
Polycrystalline zirconia (3Y-TZP grade) unreinforced and reinforced with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) or silicon carbide whiskers (SiCw) or silicon carbide particles (SiCp) have been processed and studied by mechanical spectroscopy with complementar ...
Stress induced ferroelastic switching may represent an efficient toughening mechanism in piezoelectric-ferroelectric ceramics. During the crack propagation, the high tensional stresses at the crack tip can be partially released by the reorientation of 90 d ...

As the performances of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) get attractive, long term degradation becomes the main issue for this technology. Therefore it is essential to localise the origin of degradation and to understand its mechanisms in order to find solutio ...
Transparent polycrystalline alumina (PCA) is a promising replacement for sapphire. Its optical properties however are highly dependent on the grain size and residual porosity which need to be controlled for real inline transmittances (RIT), that are high e ...
Copper and copper alloys typically experience a sharp loss in ductility at intermediate temperature, induced by grain boundary damage and fracture processes. The susceptibility of the material to intermediate temperature embrittlement is, as a result, stro ...
Dense tubular self-supporting La0.7Ca0.3Fe0.85 Co0.15O3-δperovskite membranes were prepared by thermoplastic extrusion. The rheological behavior of the ceramic mixture was studied. Non-deformed tubes o ...
The present study reports on the preparation and structural characterization of dense NaNbO3 ceramics with ultrafine grain size. Nanocrystalline raw powders obtained via microemulsion mediated synthesis were consolidated to green compacts, sinterforged to ...
