Quantitative firing transformations of a triaxial ceramic by X-ray diffraction methods [PDF]
The firing transformations of traditional (clay based) ceramics are of technological and archeological interest, and are usually reported qualitatively or semiquantitatively.

Surface modification after ethanol wet milling: A comparison between pristine glasses produced from natural minerals and analytical grade raw materials [PDF]
Four glass compositions were produced taking into account different theoretical Leucite (KAlSi2O6)/Bioglass 45S5 (45% SiO2, 24.5% Na2O, 24.5% CaO, 6% P2O5) ratios using analytical grade reagents only; and replacing some of the reagents by natural ...

Firing transformations of an argentinean calcareous commercial clay
Mineralogical transformations caused by firing are usually studied by XRD methods only semi-quantitatively. In this work the original mineral disappearance and the neo-mineralization were evaluated quantitatively.

Superface energy of several construction materials
Inverse gas chromatography at infinite dilution was used to characterize the surface of different construction materials (marble, sandstone, granite and brick). Surface energy can be divided into two components: dispersive and polar or acid-base.

Microstructural designs of spark-plasma sintered silicon carbide ceramic scaffolds
Concentrated ceramic inks based on β-SiC powders, with different amounts of Y2O3 and Al2O3 as sintering aids, are developed for the adequate production of SiC scaffolds, with different patterned morphologies, by the Robocasting technique.
