Unwanted effects of European Union environmental policy to promote a post-carbon industry. The case of energy in the European ceramic tile sector
(Elsevier, 2016-03-20)
Global warming combined with low carbon transition plans is threatening the future of high energy consumption industry sectors in the European Union (EU). The need to respond to environmental challenges is demonstrated by ...
Comportamiento a fatiga térmica de la capa de anclaje de nuevas barreras térmicas cerámicas obtenidas mediante proyección por plasma atmosférico
(Universidad Pedágogica y Tecnológica de Colombia (UPTC), 2016-05)
The development of new ceramic materials to protect the metallic components against corrosion and oxidation at
high temperature, also known as thermal barriers coating (TBC), is of a great interest topic for many industrial ...
Comparison of freeze drying and spray drying to obtain porous nanostructured granules from nanosized suspensions
(Elsevier, 2012)
This work studies the spray drying and freeze drying of different nanosized ceramic materials and the physicochemical characteristics of the obtained granules. Colloidal suspensions of alumina, titania, and a 87/13 mixture ...

Preparation and spray drying of Al2O3–TiO2 nanoparticle suspensions to obtain nanostructured coatings by APS
(Elsevier, 2010)
Al2O3–TiO2 coatings were deposited on austenitic stainless steel coupons from nanostructured powders by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS). Commercial suspensions of nanosized Al2O3 and TiO2 particles were used as starting ...
Electrokinetic and rheological properties of highly concentrated kaolin dispersions: Influence of particle volume fraction and dispersant concentration
(Elsevier, 2010)
An industrial kaolin was selected and characterised. Different dispersions were prepared with solids volume fractions between φ{symbol} = 0.20 and φ{symbol} = 0.47 in the presence of sodium silicate (between X<sub>s</sub> ...
Non-destructive measurement of bulk density distribution in large-sized ceramic tiles
(Elsevier, 2010)
An apparatus has been designed, built, and patented that is able, non-destructively, to determine bulk density distribution in large-sized ceramic tiles. The proposed method, based on the X-ray absorption technique, provides ...
Cleaner production of porcelain tile powders. Fired compact properties
(Elsevier, 2012-03)
A new ceramic powder preparation process, the droplet-powder granulation process (DPGP), was recently proposed for the cleaner production of ceramic tiles. The DPGP granules and resulting pressed compacts were characterized ...
