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 ...
During the last several years, new lead-free piezoelectric materials have been developed to replace the lead-based materials, such as PZT. Presently, the family of lead-free ceramics showing the most promising piezoelectric properties is based on potassium ...
The exact mechanism of creep resistance enhancement due to yttrium (Y) doping in a-alumina is still subject to speculation, although it is known that dopants segregate strongly to grain boundaries. The current work applies atomistic simulation techniques t ...
The influence of the properties of commercial powders on the densification during their packing, compaction and sintering process is still not understood in detail. With regard to the sintering process, neither the well-known sintering equation for the fir ...
The threshold pressure P-0 for infiltration of Al-12 wt.% Si alloy into compacts of mixtures of alumina and silicon carbide particles having largely different size is investigated. The results are in line with those recently derived from infiltrations of A ...
The dispersion of nanosized gamma aluminas with high specific surfaces areas (100 m2 /g) and primary particle sizes around 20 nm, using polyacrylic acid, has been investigated. The effect of pH and polymer concentration showed that the highest density gree ...
The lead magnesium niobate [Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 or PMN], and its solid solutions with lead titanate (PbTiO3 or PT), are of great interest because of their high electromechanical properties. At large PMN content, these materials exhibit relaxor characteristic ...
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 ...
The preparation and dielectric properties of potassium niobate tantalate (KTN) have been investigated with the aim of exploring the material's potential for ferroelectric tunable applications. The samples were prepared both by conventional sintering in air ...
Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) has been successfully applied in the sintering of nanocrystalline BaTiO3 and γ-Al2O3 in order to reach fully dense nanostructured ceramics at moderate pressure and temperature. BaTiO3 compacts with densities exceeding 97% and g ...
