Bioactive glass coatings by suspension plasma spraying from glycoletherbased solvent feedstock
(Elsevier, 2017)
Bioactive glasses are emerging as a substitute of hydroxyapatite in the development of
bioactive coatings for biomedical applications. The deposition of these coatings is carried out
by a wide range of methods, being ...
Fuel effect on solution combustion synthesis of Co(Cr,Al)2O4 pigments
(Elsevier, 2017-10)
The fuel effect on the synthesis of a ceramic pigment with a composition CoCr2−2ΨAl2ΨO4 (0 ≤ Ψ ≤ 1) by means of solution combustion synthesis process (SCS) has been studied. Three different fuels were selected to carry out ...
Molten salt attack on multilayer and functionally-graded YSZ coatings
(Elsevier, 2018-08-01)
Thermal barrier coatings have been extensively studied in the last years in order to increase the operational temperature of the current gas turbines as well as to improve the coating lifetime. Many coating characteristics ...
Organosilane-Based Coating of Quartz Species from the Traditional Ceramics Industry: Evidence of Hazard Reduction Using In Vitro and In Vivo Tests
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
The exposure to respirable crystalline silica (RCS), e.g. quartz, in industrial settings can induce silicosis and may cause tumours in chronic periods. Consequently, RCS in the form of quartz and cristobalite has been ...
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 ...
Effect of fluorine and nitrogen content on the properties of Ca-Mg-Si-Al-O-(N)-(F) glasses
(Elsevier, 2017)
X-ray amorphous glasses of composition (in equivalent percent) 15Ca:15Mg: 55Si:15Al:(100-x-y)O:xN:yF with x=0, 10, 15 and y=0, 1, 3, 5, were prepared by melting and casting. The effects of oxygen substitution by fluorine ...
Magnetic Photocatalyst for Wastewater Tertiary Treatment at Pilot Plant Scale: Disinfection and Enrofloxacin Abatement
(MDPI, 2021-01)
In this work, we have tested a photocatalytic material consisting of a core of SiO2/Fe3O4
coated with TiO2 (Magnox) for plausible tertiary wastewater treatment. For this, a pilot plant of
45 L equipped with an Ultraviolet ...
Evolution of fluorine emissions during the fast firing of ceramic tile
(Elsevier, 2008)
The present paper examines the emission-adsorption phenomena of fluorine compounds in various ceramic tile body compositions with different fluorine and calcium contents, processed by fast firing cycles in an electric ...
Green strength testing of pressed compacts: An analysis of the different methods
(Elsevier, 2008)
This paper presents a comparative study of three- and four-point bending tests and diametral compression (DC) tests, used to measure the mechanical strength of green pressed compacts. The study has been conducted on pressed ...
Calcium carbonate decomposition in white-body tiles during firing in the presence of carbon dioxide
(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, ...
