Journal ArticleDOI
Physicochemical characteristics of alumina gel in hydroxyhydrogel and normal form
TL;DR: In this article, a powder precursor for making advanced ceramic materials such as yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG) was prepared from aluminium nitrate and ammonium hydroxide by two different procedures and analyzed for determining its physico-chemical characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of low expansion ceramics in lithia–alumina–silica system with zirconia additive using the powder precursor in the form of hydroxyhydrogel
TL;DR: In this article, powder precursors of lithium aluminosilicate (LAS) of low expansion characteristics were synthesized by following the wet interaction technique in the hydroxyhydrogel form using lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), hydrated aluminium nitrate [Al(NO3)3·9H2O], fume silica (SiO2) and zirconium oxychloride (ZrOCl2·8H 2O).
Journal ArticleDOI
Decomposition reactions in the SiC-Al-Y-O system during gas pressure sintering
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed possible chemical reactions and their dependence on initial particle associations, i.e. homogeneity of mixing, the physical and chemical state of additives, pressurised sintering environment over the reactants and temperature of sinter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical characteristics of microwave sintered silicon carbide
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors dealt with the sintering of SiC with a low melting additive by microwave technique and compared the mechanical characteristics of the products with that of conventionally sintered products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retention of SiC during development of SiC-MxSiyOz composites [M = Al, Zr, Mg] by reaction bonding in air
TL;DR: In this paper, a three-stage mechanism was found to be operative in Al+3 and Zr+4 systems where oxidation at the initial stages was controlled by the nature of the polynuclear complexes formed on the surfaces of SiC particles.
