• closedAccess   An improved method for preparation of SrTiO3 nanoparticles 

      Da Silva, Luis F.; Maia, Lauro; Bernardi, Maria Inês B.; Andres, Juan; Mastelaro, Valmor Roberto Elsevier (2011)
      SrTiO3 nanoparticles were synthesized for the first time via a modified polymeric precursor method. The samples were characterized by thermogravimetry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET surface area, micro-Raman spectroscopy, ...
    • openAccess   Calcium carbonate decomposition in white-body tiles during firing in the presence of carbon dioxide 

      Escardino Benlloch, Agustín; Gómez-Tena, Maria Pilar; Feliu Mingarro, Carlos; García Ten, Francisco Javier; Saburit Llaudis, Alejandro Elsevier (2013-08)
      This study examines the thermal decomposition process of the calcium carbonate (calcite powder) contained in test pieces of porous ceramics, of the same composition as that used in manufacturing ceramic wall tile bodies, ...
    • closedAccess   Calcium carbonate thermal decomposition in white-body wall tile during firing. I. Kinetic study 

      Escardino Benlloch, Agustín; García Ten, Francisco Javier; Feliu Mingarro, Carlos; Moreno Berto, Arnaldo Vicente Elsevier (2010)
      This study examines the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate, contained in disk-shaped test pieces formed from a mixture of raw materials of a similar composition and characteristics to those of the mixtures customarily ...
    • closedAccess   Kinetic study of calcite particle (powder) thermal decomposition: Part I 

      Escardino Benlloch, Agustín; García Ten, Francisco Javier; Feliu Mingarro, Carlos Elsevier (2008)
      In the first step of the firing cycle used to manufacture white-firing wall tile bodies, the calcium carbonate that is added, as a source of CaO, to the clay raw materials mixture used to form these bodies needs to decompose. ...
    • openAccess   Kinetic study of the thermal decomposition process of calcite particles in air and CO2 atmosphere 

      Escardino Benlloch, Agustín; García Ten, Francisco Javier; Feliu Mingarro, Carlos; Saburit Llaudis, Alejandro; Cantavella Soler, Vicente Elsevier (2013-05)
      The thermal decomposition process of calcite particles (0.45–3.60 mm average diameter), made up of porous agglomerates of very small CaCO3 microcrystals, was studied in the 975–1216 K temperature range. The experiments ...
