Hot Isostatic Pressing of CrB Prepared by Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis

Biomimetic evaluation of β tricalcium phosphate prepared by hot isostatic pressing

Two types of completely densified β-TCP tablets were synthesized from a stoichiometric β-TCP powder. The first ones (TCP) were conventionally sintered, while the second ones (TCP-T) were sintered and treated by hot isostatic process (HIP). The HIP produced completely densified materials with relative densities greater than 99.9% and a transparent appearance of tablets. Samples were immersed in ...

Neural Observer for the Hot Isostatic Pressing

Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP'ing) is one of several processes used for consolidating porous materials (such as metal powders) to high density. The equations describing the HIP'ing system dynamics are immensely complicated and highly nonlinear, thus complicating any controller design for the system. Further complications arise due to the fact that one of the system's states, grain size, cannot be...

Photoluminescence studies on rare earth titanates prepared by self-propagating high temperature synthesis method.

The laser-induced luminescence studies of the rare earth titanates (R2Ti2O7) (R=La, Nd and Gd) using 355 nm radiation from an Nd:YAG laser are presented. These samples with submicron or nanometer size are prepared by the self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) method and there is no known fluorescence shown by these rare earths in the visible region. Hence, the luminescence transition...

Synthesis of Al2O3-ZrO2 Nanocomposite by Mechanical Activated Self-propagating High Temperature Synthesis(MASHS) and Ignited via Laser

By consideration of unique properties of composite Al2O3-ZrO2 such as high toughness, high wear resistant and relative low thermal expansion, in this study, nanocomposite of Al2O3-ZrO2 was produced by Mechanical activated Self propagating High-temperature Synthesis (MASHS) using laser beam for ignition. First Al and ZrO2 powders were mixed in the mole ratio of 1:1 and milled for 1, 3 and 6 hour...
