Effects of Ferrosilicon Addition and Formation of Insitu SiC Nano-whiskers on MgO-C Refractories

Nowadays, SiC is one of the refractory materials which is used widespread because of its unique properties like structural stability in high temperatures. SiC nano whiskers are important in reinforcement of different kinds of composites like ceramic base materials, thanks to their outstanding mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties like low expansion coefficient, high thermal resistant, hi...

Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting Properties of Ti-Ni-Si-O Nanostructures on Ti-Ni-Si Alloy

Ti-Ni-Si-O nanostructures were successfully prepared on Ti-1Ni-5Si alloy foils via electrochemical anodization in ethylene glycol/glycerol solutions containing a small amount of water. The Ti-Ni-Si-O nanostructures were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and diffuse reflectance absorption spectra....

Multifunctional nanostructured Ti-Si-C thin films

In this Thesis, I have investigated multifunctional nanostructured Ti-Si-C thin films synthesized by magnetron sputtering in the substrate-temperature range from room temperature to 900 °C. The studies cover high-temperature growth of Ti3SiC2 and Ti4SiC3, low-temperature growth of Ti-Si-C nanocomposites, and Ti-Si-C-based multilayers, as well as their electrical, mechanical, and thermal-stabili...

Micro-Structural Characterization of Si-SiC Ceramic Derived from C/C-SiC Composite

The main objective of the present work is to processing the porous Si-SiC ceramic by the oxidation of C/C-SiC composite. Phase studies are performed on the oxidized porous composite to examine the changes due to the high temperature oxidation. Further, various characterization techniques are performed on Si-SiC ceramic in order to study the material’s microstructure.
