UHTC ceramics derived from B4C and MAX phases by reactive sintering

open access: yesScientific Reports
In this work, the influence of three MAX phases (Ti3SiC2, Ti2AlC, and Cr2AlC) on the densification and final properties of dense composites from Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics (UHTC) family was studied.

On-surface lithium donor reaction enables decarbonated lithium garnets and compatible interfaces within cathodes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Formation of insulating lithium carbonate on surface of lithium garnets hinders their application as solid electrolyte in lithium ion batteries. Here the authors explore a scalable sintering approach to utilize the undesired Li2CO3 and improve the active

First‐Principles Modeling of Solid Solution Softening and Hardening Effects in Al–Mg–Zr–Si Aluminum Alloys

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The role of various alloying elements in face‐centered cubic aluminum on the barrier of a Shockley partial dislocation during its motion is presented. The study aims to understand how alloying atoms such as Mg, Si, and Zr affect the energy landscape for dislocation motion, thus influencing the solid solution hardening and softening in aluminum, which ...

A Simulative Approach for the Prediction of Mesoscale Residual Stress Fields in Solution‐Strengthened Ferritic Ductile Iron

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a 3D representative volume element‐based simulation approach to predict mesoscopic residual stress and strain fields in silicon solid solution‐strengthened ductile cast iron. By modeling phase transformation kinetics with an enhanced Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov model, the effects of varying cooling rates on residual stresses are ...

Optimizing the properties of vat photopolymerization 3D-printed SiC ceramics by multi-infiltration

open access: yesJournal of Asian Ceramic Societies
Digital Light Processing (DLP) technology is a highly effective molding method for creating complex structural parts. However, the low solid content of SiC stereolithography slurry has been found to diminish the mechanical properties of the ceramic ...

Ceramics in Africa

open access: yes, 2008
Pottery making is a very ancient craft in Africa, as some of the oldest pottery remains known in the world were discovered on this continent. Dating from around 10,000 BCE – i.e., one or two millennia after the inception of the Jomon pottery in Japan – they were excavated in the Air Region of Niger (West Africa) (Haour, 2003).

Mechanical Behavior and Microstructural Changes Associated with Tensile Deformation above the Martensite Start Temperature during Quenching and Subsequent Partitioning of a Low‐Alloy 37SiB6 Steel

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A new experimental setup, incorporating digital image correlation and infrared thermography in combination with inductive‐conductive heating for precise temperature control, is used to analyze the mechanical behavior and microstructural changes of sheet metal under complex thermomechanical test conditions that represent quench and partitioning ...
