Flash sintering has been investigated as a modern sintering method through examining the effect of processing parameters such as current density, temperature, and contact paste on the flash sintered 8YSZ characteristic. 95% of theoretical density was achieved at 800°С in 30sec with a field intensity of 100V.cm-1 and a current density of 160mA.mm-2. Such relative density in conventional sinterin...

Formation, maintenance and repair processes of bone tissues are only possible due to the internal ability of bones to remodel their microstructure. The mechanobiological factors of tissue formation, differentiation and regeneration in bone have been investigated by many authors. Here, the simplified yet well-justified Wolff's hypothesis will be recalled, postulating that processes of remodellin...

In this study, we report a procedure for producing syntactic steel foams by melt infiltration of millimeter-sized ceramic microspheres. The gravity-fed infiltration method yields steel foam with uniform distributions of microspheres and negligible unintended porosity. The critical parameters in the manufacturing process are the melt temperature and the preheat temperature of the microspheres pr...

in this study the effect of nano meter size zro2 particles on the microstructure, densification and hydration resistance of magnesite –dolomite refractories was investigated. 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 wt. % zro2 particles that were added to magnesite –dolomite refractories containing 35 wt. % cao. the hydration resistance was measured by change in the weight of specimens after 72 h at 25℃ and 95% relati...

this paper presents an investigation on the effect of temperature and raw material on microstructure of fine cellular foam used as the insulation of coaxial cables. a set up was prepared and used to produce fine cellular foamed insulation. as the physical  blowing agent, butane was used. the effect of temperature on the microstructure of polyethylene (pe) was worth to note. at high temperature,...
