ABSTRACT The hillfort of Castrejón de Capote is one of the best investigated settlements of Late Iron Age southwest Iberia. Located in the territory that the classical sources attributed to the Celtici, it was occupied between the early 4th and the 1st centuries bce.

Solid-state NMR characterisation of the thermal transformation of a Hungarian white illite [PDF]
1H, 27Al, 29Si and 39K solid-state NMR are reported from a Hungarian illite 2:1 clay for samples heated up 1600 °C. This single-phase sample has a small amount of aluminium substitution in the silica layer and very low iron-content (0.4 wt%).

The Material Basis of 18th‐Century Meissen Porcelain
ABSTRACT In the summer of 1708, the quest for making hard‐paste porcelain from Saxonian clay and other mineral resources succeeded. This was achieved by applying as its essential ingredient newly discovered pure kaolin from Heidelsberg near Aue, western Saxon Ore Mountains.

Toughening effect of mullite whisker within low-density ceramic proppants
Main crystal phases of low-density ceramic proppants prepared by bauxite and feldspar are granular corundum and whisker-shaped mullite. Mullite whiskers are interlocked with one another and piled up inside the pores. High aspect ratio of mullite whiskers

A cursory study of the bulk and glaze composition plus metal leaching properties of a selection of antique, vintage and present day food and drink ceramic wares using XRF, FTIR, ²⁷Al, ²⁹Si, ³¹P MAS NMR and ICP-MS for providing a characterisation of the types of domestic ceramic ware used in New Zealand currently [PDF]
The ceramic utensils used for eating and drinking such as plates, cups, bowls and other items have been a fundamental part of many societies since ancient times.

The graphical abstract illustrates a circular waste to value pathway in which coal fly ash is upgraded by isolating unburned carbon and converting it into functional carbon materials. Through carbonization and activation, UC‐derived carbon is transformed into high surface area electrodes for supercapacitors, supporting sustainable energy storage and ...

Product Scope and Reactivity in Hydrothermal Conversion of Polyethylene With Solid Catalysts
The addition of solid catalysts to the hydrothermal conversion of polyethylene increases the conversion and promotes the formation of naphtha‐like compounds when using CeO2, and aromatic compounds when using aluminosilicates. The reusability of these catalyst materials was demonstrated as they retained catalytic activity upon reuse.

Processing–Property Mapping of Flash‐Sintered Wall Tile Bodies
ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of furnace temperature (900°C and 945°C), applied electric field (50–200 V.cm−1), and current density (50–150 mA.mm−2) on the physical properties and microstructure of flash‐sintered wall tile bodies. Water absorption, bulk density, and open porosity were measured and compared with an industrially fired ...

Effect of particle size on the pore characterization and strength of porous cordierite-mullite ceramics prepared by a pore-forming in-situ technique [PDF]
The porous cordierite-mullite ceramics were prepared by the pore-forming in-situ technique. The characterizations of porous cordierite-mullite ceramics were determined by an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and a ...
