A composite material consisting of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) grown on sintered metal fiber filters was modified by H2O2 or plasma-generated O3. Coupling temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques in the sam ...
The GFR (Gas cooled Fast Reactor) combines the advantages of a fast neutron spectrum with those of high temperatures. Given the high core outlet temperatures exceeding 800 C, it is clear that conventional metallic core structures and fuel cladding will be ...
Besides 'bulk' structural and functional ceramic, a third interesting group of inorganic or ceramic materials exists: particles used for medical applications like contrast agent as building blocks for photonic crystals, as thin or thick layers with control ...
Elastoplastic toughness testing of pure aluminium replicated foam is conducted following a J-procedure adapted from the ASTM E1820-08a standard using disc-shaped compact tension specimens. Tests cover a wide range of foam relative density V-m (10-24%). Res ...
In selecting and designing materials for certain engineering applications, the resistance to material damage or removal of material from contacting surfaces in relative motion is an important factor. To determine these properties, laboratory tests are rout ...
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 ...
The converse piezoelectric response of Pb(ZrxTi1−x)O3 ceramics is investigated as a function of material composition. The effects of the crystallographic phase and different dopants on piezoelectric nonlinearity are separately examined. For a linear depend ...
Reliable operation in harsh environments such as high temperatures, high pressures, aggressive media and space, poses special requirements for sensors and packages, which usually cannot be met using polymer-based technologies. Ceramic technologies, especia ...
Mechanical loss measurements were performed at high temperature in fine-grained ceramics, such as zirconia and alumina. At high temperature, the mechanical loss increases exponentially with temperature, which accounts for material creep. The results are an ...
The near-IR luminescence properties of two ErIII-containing coordination polymers, namely, [Er(btc)(H2O)5·3.5H2O] [(btc)3– = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate] and [Er2(bdc)3- (H2O)4] [(bdc)2– = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate] were investigated with the aim of testing ...
