In this paper, lead free (K0.48,Na0.52)NbO3 (KNN(48-52)) piezoelectric ceramics were made by conventional solid state sintering process. Additives of nano ZnO (n-ZnO), nano CuO (n-CuO) and nano SnO2 (n-SnO2) were used in order to decrease the sintering temperature, as well as modifying the dielectric, piezoelectric and ferroelectric propert...

This work deals with sintering additives for the low temperature pressureless sintering of Si3N4, via a transient liquid technique. Much attention has been given to the development of a sintering process using low-cost Si3N4 powder (Silzot HQ, Germany) as the starting material and employing sintering additives which are also both economically attractive and enable sintering at low temperatures....

Abstract Nano-hydroxyapatite (nano-HA) has been widely studied as a promising biomaterial because of its potential mechanical and biological properties. In this article, different synthesis methods for nano-HA were summarized. Key factors the nano-HA, including reactant concentration, effects temperature, PH, additives, aging time, sintering, separately investigated. The performances depend str...

Various types of hydroxyapatite (HA) structures have received great attention of scientific researcher in biomaterials field. Also, it is common that HA is the essential inorganic materials in human hard tissue such as bone or teeth. Fracture toughness and micro-hardness properties are the important parameters required for the prediction of the mechanical performance of biomaterials structures ...

The Si-coated SiC (Si-SiC) composite nanoparticle was prepared by non-transferred arc thermal plasma processing of solid-state synthesized SiC powder and was used as a sintering additive for SiC ceramic formation. Sintered SiC pellet was prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) process, and the effect of nano-sized Si-SiC composite particles on the sintering behavior of micron-sized SiC powder ...

This paper describes the literature review of effect of different nano additives on performance and emission characteristics of diesel engine fuelled with different blends of biodiesel. This study is based on the previous research published articles. It was reviewed that by using nano additives with blend of biodiesel the performance characteristics were improved significantly but the exhaust e...

Nano Al₂O₃ polyamide composites are evaluated for processing by selective laser sintering. A thermal characterization of the polymer composite powders allowed us to establish the possible initial settings. Initial experiments are conducted to identify the most suitable combinations of process parameters. Based on the results of the initial trials, more promising ranges of different process para...
