V2O5 is used to substitute Ta2O5 site of the SrBi2Ta2O9 ceramics to form SrBi2Ta2-xVxO9 composition, where 0.1 x 0.4 ≦ ≦ . The sintering and the dielectric properties of SrBi2Ta2-xVxO9 ceramics have been developed. For all SrBi2Ta2-xVxO9 composition, the crystal intensities of the (0,0,l) planes increase with the increase of sintering temperature and saturate at 1050C-sintered ceramics, and the...

This paper describes thermoelectric properties of La-doped SrTiO3 prepared by using a combination of combustion synthesis (CS) with post spark plasma sintering (SPS), on which effects of sintering temperature were mainly examined. In experimental, combustion-synthesized (CSed) samples (Sr1 xLaxTiO3, x 1⁄4 0:08) were spark-plasma-sintered (SPSed) at temperatures from 1513 to 1663K and the thermo...

|III Abstract Powder metallurgy (PM) is usually used in manufacturing parts with complex geometries, such as gears and structural parts. The main attractions of PM are the high rate of material utilization, environmental friendliness of production, economic advantages (especially for complex geometries), and possibility of obtaining lighter components. To find a wide range of applications and c...

The healing process after implantation of sintered bone in the rat parietal bone was compared with that of synthetic hydroxyapatite using both scanning electron and light microscopy. The results showed that the differences between the sintered natural bone and the synthetic hydroxyapatite implantations were in the states of bone union and the bioresorbability of the implanted materials, even th...

Abstract This study here by presents a method for comparative assessment of grinding wheels during the grinding process of hard-to-cut materials. The method in question consists of carrying out a short grinding cut in plunge grinding kinematics using grinding wheels with a customized macro-geometry upon the active surface. The work presents examples of this method’s efficacy when applied to the...

Productions, mechanical and microstructural analyses of bioglass/sheep hydroxyapatite (SHA) composites are introduced. Bioglass were added to calcinated SHA with various concentrations 5 and 10 wt. %. Powder mixture compacted with pressure (350 MPa) in steel moulds to obtain cylinder samples. As the next step, samples sintered in air at various temperatures (1000, 1100, 1200, 1300 C for 4 hrs)....

Sintering parameters of the SS316L water atomised inject ion moulded compact has been optimized for its best sintered density. The L9 (3 4 ) Taguchi orthogonal array is used in the experiment while sintering temperature, sintering time, heating rate and coofing rate was selected as factors that influenced the sintered density. The sintering environment was in the vacuum and four replications we...

Pool boiling heat transfer is measured with two individual working fluids on copper surfaces enhanced with sintered copper powder and carbon nanotubes. The working fluids are a segregated hydrofluoroether, HFE-7300, and deionized water. The surfaces considered in the experiments include smooth copper, copper with sintered copper particles, smooth copper with copper-coated carbon nanotubes (CNT)...

Load-dependent power loss is a major contributor to power loss in gear transmission systems. In this study, pin-on-disc frictional and FZG efficiency experiments were conducted with powder metallurgy (Distaloy AQ ? 0.2 %C) and wrought material (16MnCr5) combinations. The gear mesh torque loss from gear efficiency tests and the friction coefficient from the pin-on-disc tests were then compared. ...

Objective: This study investigated the effect of different sintering temperatures and times on the flexural strength and grain size of zirconia. Material and methods: Zirconia specimens (In-Coris ZI, In-Coris TZI, 120 samples) were prepared in a partially sintered state. Subsequently, the specimens were randomly divided into three groups and sintered at different final sintering temperatures an...
