Photocatalysts are employed in several industry segments and chemical processes. Generally, the smaller the particle size, the greater it is the surface area, improving reaction rate. It is often ...

While the method of flash sintering can reduce the temperatures and time required to process ceramics in comparison with traditional methods, the technique often ...

Abstract: Flash sintering was a fabulous method to sinter ceramics in several seconds with lower furnace temperature. By applying bisectional electrode distributions and the two-stage sintering method ...

The fabrication of silver joints was done using the pressureless sintering technology to suit the demand of high-reliability schottky barrier diodes (SBD). Porosity of 10.6% and shear strength of 39.6 ...

Silicon nitride ceramics are widely used in structural applications because they have low density yet are very tough. Their damage tolerance is based upon an interlocking microstructure of elongated ...

Abstract: Real-time and accurate measurement of the sintering mixture moisture is crucial for improving product quality and the efficiency of the sintering process. However, this task remains ...

Engineered high-performance ceramics and hobbyists' pottery alike are usable only after they are fired for hours at high temperatures, usually above 1,000 °C. The sintering process that takes place ...

Scientists have reinvented a 26,000-year-old manufacturing process into an innovative approach to fabricating ceramic materials that has promising applications for solid-state batteries, fuel cells, ...
