TL;DR: A review of spray pyrolysis processes in terms of the process parameters that enable the formation of particles with controlled morphology and composition can be found in this paper, where it is demonstrated that mixed metal oxide, nonoxide, and composite particles that are solid, hollow, porous, or fibrous can be produced by modifying the precursor characteristics, solution properties, and process parameters.

TL;DR: Substantial progress has been made in the understanding of how biomineralization occurs, and the first steps are now being taken to exploit the basic principles involved.

TL;DR: In this article, a reactive TGG (RTGGG) was used to obtain highly oriented Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3, Sr0.53Ba0.47Nb 2O6, and (N...

TL;DR: In this article, the transformation, microstructural development, and densification of an α-alumina-seeded boehmite sol-gel was studied, and α-Alumina particles are shown to act as nuclei for the trans-formation of θ- to α- alumina and to result in an increase in the transformation kinetics and lowering of the transformation temperature by as much as 170°C.

TL;DR: This paper describes a sintering technique for ceramics and ceramic-based composites, using water as a transient solvent to effect densification by a mediated dissolution-precipitation process, named the Cold Sintering Process (CSP).
