Shaping by Internal Material Frustration: Shifting to Architectural Scale. [PDF]
Self‐shaping by material frustration is demonstrated for the first time at an architectural scale and in structural materials, typical of the construction field. Quantitative comparison with theoretical predictions, as well as scaling‐up and gravitation effect are presented.

Environmental profile of Spanish porcelain stoneware tiles [PDF]
Purpose Porcelain stoneware tile (PST) iscurrently the ceram- ic tile of greatest commercial and innovation interest. An envi- ronmental life cycle assessment of different varieties of PST was undertaken to enable hotspots to be identified, strategies tobedefined,differencesbetweenPSTvarietiestobeevaluated ...

Influence of preparation parameters on the properties of SiC abrasive stones and their applications
Abstract The preparation of highly efficient and low cost abrasive stones has gained considerable interest in the last few years from the industrial and academic research societies. Meanwhile, composition of such abrasive stones material has played a significant role on its physicochemical, mechanical properties and cost.

Characterising mine wastes as archaeological landscapes
Abstract Industrial‐scale metal mining has long been a feature of developing economies. Processing ores to recover minerals has generated large quantities of waste rock, tailings and contaminants. Mining‐related deposits, along with associated soil and water geochemistry, river modifications and other environmental changes, are a product of the nature,

Foaming Species and Trapping Mechanisms in Barium Silicate Glass Sealants
Sinter foaming of barium silicate glass powders used for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) sealing is studied. It is shown that foaming is driven by carbonaceous species adsorbed during milling or later storage. These species are trapped beneath the glass powder surface via mechanical dissolution or microencapsulation into cracks or micropores of particle ...

Kinetic study of the transformation of sodalite to nepheline
Abstract The kinetics and mechanism of the development of nepheline (NaAlSiO4) through thermal transformation of sodalite (Na4Al3Si3O12Cl) was studied by means of differential thermal analysis at different heating rates (10°C min−1 to 50°C min−1) to control the evolution of the crystallization fraction.

Development of translucent ceramic tiles from modified porcelain stoneware tile paste
Abstract In this work, a translucent ceramic was developed based on a porcelain stoneware paste modified by the addition of a frit to promote translucency. Six compositions were defined, with frit contents ranging between 20% and 50% (by mass). Alumina and quartz were also added at levels of up to 10% (by mass) to provide greater stability to the ...

Corrosion Inhibition of Peracetic Acid‐Based Disinfectants
To use peracetic acid as an active ingredient in disinfectants, its corrosive properties have to be mitigated. In this study, increasing the pH value of peracetic acid solution in combination with the addition of a nonionic surfactant was investigated for enhancement of the material compatibility of the solution with respect to aluminum, stainless ...

The use of perlite as flux in the production of porcelain stoneware tiles
In this study, the effect of perlite from NW Turkey on the physical properties of ceramic tile bodies was investigated. The phases present in the raw materials were measured by X-ray diffraction while chemical analysis of the raw materials were ...
