Sintering Behavior and Optical Properties of Yttria
TL;DR: In this paper, the relative density/grain size trajectory has been drawn and hypotheses concerning the mechanisms controlling grain growth and densification were formulated, and the optical properties were measured in the UV, visible, and infrared ranges.

High strength proppants
Abstract: A sintered ceramic particle made from a ceramic material having a true density greater than 3.5 g/cc and a composition having no more than 30 weight percent silicon oxide and at least 15 weight percent iron oxide, based on the combined weight of the oxides of aluminum, iron and silicon, is disclosed. A proces that utilizes an externally applied compressive force to make a ceramic particle is also disclosed.
Patent
Ceramic article and process for making the same
TL;DR: In this article, a process for producing ceramic particles, such as proppants, that have at least 10 percent total porosity is described, which includes forming a particle precursor that includes 5 percent to 30 percent of a first ceramic material and at least 40 percent of another ceramic material.
Patent
Product having a high alumina content
TL;DR: A sintered refractory product having the form of a block and consisting of a granulate formed by all the grains having a size larger than 100 μm, referred to as coarse grains, and a matrix binding said coarse grains and having a composition such that, in a mass percentage based on the oxides: Al2O3>80%, SiO2<15%, Na2O<0.05%, CaO< 0.1%, the other oxides forming the remainder up to 100%, the Na 2O content in the matrix being greater than 0.
Patent
Ceramic particle comprising an alumina crystalline phase
TL;DR: In this article, a process for producing ceramic particles, such as proppants, that have at least 10 percent total porosity is described, which includes forming a particle precursor that includes 5 percent to 30 percent of a first ceramic material and at least 40 percent of another ceramic material.
