Orientation-dependent equilibrium film thickness at interphase boundaries in ceramic-ceramic composites
(IOP Publishing LTD, 1997)Theoretical considerations of the Hamaker constant for the interaction of two media across a third suggest that the highly anisotropic nature of the refractive indices of a medium such as h-BN will produce an orientation ... -
Interphase boundaries between hexagonal boron nitride and beta silicon nitride in silicon nitride silicon carbide particulate composites
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 1997)Interphase boundaries between hexagonal boron nitride and beta-Si3N4 in hot isostatically pressed Si3N4-SiC particulate composites, in which boron nitride appears as a trace contaminant, have been examined using high ... -
The preparation of Ce alpha-sialons and related unstable phases
(Iom Communications LTD, 1998)It has previously been accepted that lanthanum and cerium do not form alpha-sialon structures because their ions are too large to enter the interstices in the structure. Recent work on heat-treatment of rare-earth densified ... -
New developments in alpha-SiAlON ceramics
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 1999)Two different alpha-sialon compositions have been densified by either pressureless sintering or capsul-free sinter HIPing using either single cation namely strontium, lanthanum, cerium, neodymium or their equimolar mixtures ... -
Reactions at ceramic-metal interfaces in capacitor-discharge joined ceramics
(Transtec Publications LTD, 1999)A capacitor-discharge joining technique has been used to fabricate zirconia-AlxNiyYz zirconia (ZrO2) joints, in addition, the surface of the ZrO2 tiles were sputter coated with Ti and joined using Al as an interlayer ... -
Wetting and non-wetting behaviour of silicon carbide grain boundaries
(Transtec Publications LTD, 1999)Silicon carbide (SiC) grain boundaries have been observed to be free from intergranular films. On the basis of equilibrium film thickness calculations, it has been proposed elsewhere that because SiC has very high refractive ... -
Transmission electron microscopy of interfaces in structural ceramic composites
(Blackwell Science LTD, 1999)Ceramic composites based either on a particulate, fibre or a lamellar architecture are potentially useful as damage-tolerant high-temperature engineering materials. The ability of the interfaces in such systems to deflect ... -
Transmission electron microscopy studies of La2O3-doped alpha-SiAlON ceramics
(IOP Publishing LTD, 1999)alpha-SiAlON is able to accommodate cations into its crystal structure if the cations are sufficiently small in size, thus helping to reduce the volume of the remnant grain boundary phase after processing. In this study, ... -
Piezoelectric hollow spheres for microprobe hydrophones
(Taylor & Francis LTD, 1999)Miniature hollow spheres of lead zirconate titanate have been prepared with a coaxial nozzle process using fine grain slurry of PZT-5. Following the binder burnout and sintering, the spheres were poled radially and ... -
Functional composites for sensors, actuators and transducers
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 1999)Following the trend in structural applications, composite structures are being used more commonly in transducer applications to improve acoustic, mechanical and electrical performance of piezoelectric devices. Functional ... -
Flextensional composite transducers: Designing, fabrication and application
(Springer, 2000)The design, fabrication and application of flextensional composite transducers are summarized in this study. The moonie and cymbal type flextensional transducer consist of a ceramic driving element sandwiched between two ... -
Novel developments in alpha-SiAlON ceramics
(Trans Tech Publications LTD, 2000)Densification and stabilization of alpha-sialon ceramics have been investigated by using oxides of large cations (Sr2+, La3+, Ce3+, Nd3+) and their equimolar mixtures with calcium or ytterbium as a principal cation. All ... -
Hard and tough alpha-SiAlON ceramics
(Trans Tech Publications LTD, 2000)Yb, Nd/Ca and Ce/Ca containing a-sialon starting compositions have been densified by either pressureless sintering or capsul free sinter/HIP'ing using "conventional" alpha-Si3N4 powder. X-ray diffraction studies of both ... -
The effect of copper oxide addition and the heat treatment temperature on the microstructure of zinc containing soft porcelain crystal glazes
(IOP Publishing LTD, 2001)In tableware industry, decorative appearance of final products is very important from the view point of attracting customers. Therefore, not only decoration patterns but also colouring is taken into account. In zinc ... -
Microstructure of capacitor discharge joined SiAlON and silicon nitride ceramics
(IOP Publishing LTD, 2001)Silicon nitride based ceramics offer great potential for industrial applications. However, the joining of Si3N4 based materials is necessary in various applications and this can be difficult to achieve. A capacitor discharge ... -
Microstructural characterisation of melt infiltrated boron carbide-aluminium composites
(IOP Publishing LTD, 2001)The microstructure of boron carbide (B4C) - aluminium (Al) composites produced by reactive infiltration were characterised using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a transmission electron microscope (TEM) both attached ... -
Improvement of elongated ?-SiAlON ceramics by variation of the processing conditions and amounts of additives
(2001)Two types of Y-?-SiAlON composition, with different amounts of additional liquid phase were densified in a gas pressure sintering furnace using three different sintering cycles. One series of samples was heated up to 1825°C ... -
Performance of new ?-ß SiAlONs in turning operations
(2001)New ?-ß SiAlON ceramics were produced, characterised and tested in turning operations of cast iron. Cutting speeds varied between 400-1200 m/min while feeding rates were between 0.3 to 0.5 mm/rev. The results were compared ... -
Effects of different Si3N4 starting powders and sintering conditions on the grain morphology and mechanical properties of ?-SiAlON ceramics
(2001)The preparation of ?-SiAlON microstructures by ß-Si3N4 starting powder or by applying nucleation step during sintering was studied. The application of sintering cycles on nucleation effect and the effect of different Si3N4 ... -
Chemical durability behaviour of bulk glasses in the SrO-Mn2O3-Fe2O3-MgO-ZrO2-SiO2 (SMFMZS) system
(Trans Tech Publications LTD, 2002)It is known that the SrO-MgO-ZrO2-SiO2 (SMZS) system glasses with 40 weight % silica content seem to give a very high chemical endurance against highly alkaline solutions and can be recommended for the reinforcement of ...
