a-SiAION ceramics densified with mixed oxide sintering additives
Mandal, Hasan; Oberacker, R. (2000)Densification and stabilization of ?-sialon ceramics were investigated by using oxides of large cations (Sr2+, La3+, Ce3+, Nd3+) and their equi-molar mixtures with CaO or Yb2O3. All multi-cation and single cation (only ... -
alpha ->beta sialon transformation in calcium-containing alpha-SiAlON ceramics
Mandal, Hasan; Thompson, D. P. (Elsevier Sci LTD, 1999)Recent studies on rare earth densified a-sialon ceramics have shown that the resulting alpha-sialon product, present either as a single phase or in conjunction with beta-sialon, is unstable when heat treated at lower ... -

A comparative study of SiAlON ceramics
Mallik, Awadesh Kumar; Acikbas, Nurcan Çalış; Kara, Ferhat; Mandal, Hasan; Basu, Debabrata (Elsevier Sci LTD, 2012)Two different varieties of Si3N4 powders were used to prepare SiAlON ceramics. 100% beta-Si3N4 was used from refractory grade powders (B1) and another purer 98% alpha-Si3N4 (50A) powder was used to prepare the SiAlON ... -
Cytocompatibility property evaluation of gas pressure sintered SiAlON-SiC composites with L929 fibroblast cells and Saos-2 osteoblast-like cells
Kumar, Alok; Mallik, Awadesh Kumar; Açıkbaş, Nurcan Çalış; Yaygingol, Merve; Kara, Ferhat; Mandal, Hasan; Basu, Bikramjit (Elsevier Science BV, 2012)Although the oxide ceramics have widely been investigated for their biocompatibility, non-oxide ceramics, such as SiAlON and SiC are yet to be explored in detail. Lack of understanding of the biocompatibility restricts the ... -
Decolouration effect of WC addition on gas pressure sintered alpha-beta SiAlON ceramics
Ayas, Erhan; Kara, Alpagut; Mandal, Hasan; Turan, Servet; Kara, Ferhat (Elsevier Science BV, 2004)In this study, an attempt was made to mask an inhomogeneous gray colouration featured on the surfaces of the gas pressure sintered alpha-beta SiAlON ceramics containing 50% alpha and 50% beta SiAlONs in the form of spots. ... -
The design of compositions for multi-cation doped ?-ß SiAlON ceramics by the Rietveld method
Kurama, Semra; Herrmann, M.; Mandal, Hasan (2003)Although densification of ?-ß-SiAlON ceramics is easier by using sintering additives, it is difficult to achieve the designed composition and therefore the mechanical properties after sintering. This is mainly due to the ... -
