Effect of fructose-containing feedstocks on the microstructure of multicomponent coatings deposited by suspension plasma spraying
(Elsevier, 2019-04)
This work addressed to investigate the use of fructose as an additive in the water-based suspension feedstock of a Y-TZP/Al2O3/SiC multicomponent coating manufactured by suspension plasma spraying. The effect of fructose ...
Microfluidic rheology: A new approach to measure viscosity of ceramic suspensions at extremely high shear rates
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2020-12-19)
This paper describes the operation principles of a micro-scale rheometry equipment based on the technology of microchannels on a chip and compares it with a conventional macro-scale rotational rheometer. Both techniques ...
Modeling of High Nanoparticle Exposure in an Indoor Industrial Scenario with a One-Box Model
(MDPI, 2019-05)
Mass balance models have proved to be effective tools for exposure prediction in occupational settings. However, they are still not extensively tested in real-world scenarios, or for particle number concentrations. An ...
