Shear-thinning behaviour of dense, stabilised suspensions of plate-like particles. Proposed structural model.
(Elsevier, 2015-09)
A structural model was developed to describe the shear-thinning behaviour of dense, stabilised suspensions of plate-like particles. The model is based on the following main assumptions: the particles are distributed in ...
Role of starch characteristics in the properties of low-cost ceramic membranes
(Elsevier, 2015)
Starch is used as porosity generator in membranes and other porous ceramics. A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the characteristics of starches (impurities, particle size), obtained from potato, pea, maize ...
Particle release fromrefit operations in shipyards: Exposure, toxicity and environmental implications
(Elsevier, 2021-09-09)
European harbours are known to contribute to air quality degradation.While most of the literature focuses
on emissions from stacks or logistics operations, ship refit and repair activities are also relevant aerosol
sources ...
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 ...
Estimation of the heat of reaction in traditional ceramic compositions
(Elsevier, 2015-05)
Most energy studies on the traditional ceramic manufacturing process focus on the firing stage because this is the process stage that consumes the greatest amount of thermal energy. At present in Europe, using typical ...
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 ...
Effect of particle size distribution on the evolution of porous, microstructural, and dimensional characteristics during sinter-crystallisation of a glass-ceramic glaze
(ElsevierNorth-Holland, 2021-08-05)
Glass-ceramic test pieces, obtained from three different particle size distributions of a frit, were fired at temperatures between 800°C and 1200°C. Evolution of porous characteristics of the test pieces with firing ...
Influence of beta-to-alpha quartz transition on residual stresses of a feldspar glass matrix composite: A relationship with catastrophic fracture due to thermal shock
(Elsevier, 2023-04-14)
A wide range of porcelain-based materials is composed of quartz crystalline particles dispersed in a homogeneous glassy phase. During the cooling stage these composites are subjected to stresses related to the transition ...
Correlation between the wear resistance, and the scratch resistance, for nanocomposite coatings
(Elsevier, 2011)
The nanoscratch test, used in this study, quantitatively characterizes the scratch behaviour of coatings. Some of the obtained parameters are plastic and elastic deformation, critical load to start the scratch, chipping ...
Hardness and Young's modulus distributions in atmospheric plasmas prayed WC–Co coatings using nanoindentation
(Elsevier, 2011-05-25)
A statistical indentation analysis of WC–Co coatings obtained by atmospheric plasma spray (APS) with two secondary plasma gases, H2 and He, was investigated using an instrumented indentation technique with the aim of ...
