Gaseous ozone inactivation of Bacillus atrophaeus spores on ceramic and porcelain tiles

Journal of Analytical Science and Technology
In this study, we investigated the ozone inactivation efficiency of Bacillus atrophaeus spores attached to various tile surfaces. Eight different types of tiles were employed, considering factors such as porosity (ceramic, porcelain), color (white, black)

Decreasing the Cost of Morphing in Adaptive Morphogenetic Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2025.
Shape‐morphing propulsive limbs enhance locomotion across land‐to‐water transitions, but prior designs rely on thermally responsive components, coupling performance to environmental temperature. This study introduces a pressure‐responsive mechanism that reduces morphing energy costs, enables rapid transitions, and minimizes failure modes.

Photocatalytic activity of ceramic tiles coated with titania supported on kaolinite

Open Ceramics, 2023
Titania is an established photocatalytic material. The dispersion of titania nanoparticles on kaolinite particles as carrier and support precursor, TiO2-kao, has been studied to avoid losses in photocatalytic efficiency once fired by single-fired ...

The Use of Ornamental Stone Waste (OSW) as Raw Material for Porcelain Ceramic Tiles Production

International Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 7, Issue 5, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Despite the relevant contribution of the ornamental stone industry to the international economy, the large volume of waste generated during the production process is one of the main problems faced by the sector. Currently, the ceramic industry has shown to be a powerful alternative for the use of these wastes.

Study of the adherence between polymer-modified mortars and porcelain stoneware tiles

Materials Research, 2005
Despite the excellent characteristics of porcelain tiles, their application on building facades requires special attention, since this material differs from conventional ceramics and because facades are exposed to weathering that can damage ceramic ...

Effect of nanosilica and nanoboehmite in the pyroplastic deformation of a porcelain tile paste

International Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, Volume 22, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Porcelain tiles are low‐porosity ceramic coatings, formed by a mixture of clay minerals, quartz, and feldspars, and fired at temperatures close to 1200°C with formation of a liquid phase that can result in unwanted pyroplastic deformations. In addition, the rectangular formats, large dimensions, reduced thicknesses, and fast thermal cycles ...

Masking Ability of CAD‐CAM Materials at Different Thicknesses: A Study on Color, Translucency, and Infinite Optical Thickness

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 2134-2143, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the masking ability of different thicknesses of CAD‐CAM resin‐matrix and feldspar porcelain materials. Materials and Methods Specimens (Ø7.5 mm, thickness 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mm, n = 3/material) were fabricated from Lava Ultimate‐LU, Grandio Blocs‐GB, VITA Enamic‐VE, and VITA Mark II‐VM.
