Determinants of workplace exposure and release of ultrafine particles during atmospheric plasma spraying in the ceramic industry
(Elsevier, 2017)
Atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) is a frequently used technique to produce
enhanced-property coatings for different materials in the ceramic industry. This work
aimed to characterise and quantify the impact of APS on ...
Effects of water and CMA in mitigating industrial road dust resuspension
(Elsevier, 2016-04)
Water spraying and/or chemical suppressants such as salts and polymers have been suggested to reduce road dust resuspension due to their capability to increase adhesion, and therefore the effective size and weight of ...
Anion transport through ceramic electrodialysis membranes made with hydrated cerium dioxide
(Wiley, 2017-05)
In this research, low-cost ceramic anion-exchange membranes have been developed from porous supports manufactured, using a chamotte as a pore former. An inorganic anion-exchanger (hydrated cerium dioxide) has been deposited ...
Effects of composition and furnace temperature on (Ni, Co) (Cr, Al)2O4 pigments synthesized by solution combustion route
(Wiley, 2017-08)
The effects of composition and furnace temperature on Ni1-ΨCoΨCr2−2ΨAl2ΨO4 (0≤Ψ≤1) pigments prepared by Solution Combustion Synthesis were studied. As-synthesized samples showed spinel-like spongy structure, very easy to ...
Air quality comparison between two European ceramic tile clusters
(Elsevier, 2013-08)
The European ceramic tile industry is mostly concentrated in two clusters, one in Castelló (Spain) and another one in Modena (Italy). Industrial clusters may have problems to accomplish the EU air quality regulations because ...
Evaluation of new ceramic electrodes based on Sb-doped SnO2 for the removal of emerging compounds present in wastewater
(Elsevier, 2018-02-01)
The properties of the ceramic electrodes make them interesting for electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs), destined to the elimination of emergent or refractory contaminants, as an alternative to boron-doped-diamond ...
Aqueous suspension processing of multicomponent submicronic Y-TZP/Al2O3/SiC particles for suspension plasma spraying
(Elsevier, 2018-01)
In order to obtain thermal barrier coatings by Suspension Plasma Spraying (SPS) process with potential new self-healing ability multicomponent submicronic Y-TZP/Al2O3/SiC suspensions were prepared. For this purpose, ...
Sinter-crystallisation kinetics of a SiO2–Al2O3–CaO–MgO–SrO glass-ceramic glaze
(Elsevier, 2020-03-15)
This paper examines the microstructural development and kinetics of the sintering and crystallisation processes of a SiO2–Al2O3–RO (R = Ca, Mg, Sr) glass-ceramic glaze. Crystallisation and sintering kinetics were studied ...
Study of lithium carbonate as sintering aid for tin oxide densification trough experimental designs: Main variables and microstructure changes
(Elsevier, 2022)
Tin oxide is one of the most extensively studied semiconductor materials due to its broad
field of applications. On the one hand, its high conductivity and its corrosion resistance are
the most remarkable properties. ...
Modification of the properties of Al2O3/TZ-3YS thermal barrier coating by the addition of silicon carbide particles and fructose
(MDPI, 2021-03-29)
Al2O3/TZ-3YS coatings developed by suspension plasma spraying were studied in the
present work. Mechanical and thermal characterization was realized to evaluate the suitability of
thermal barrier coatings. In addition, ...
