Impact of Feedstock Nature on Thermal Conductivity of YSZ Thermal Barrier Coatings Obtained by Plasma Spraying
(Göller Verlag GmbH, 2016-09)
Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) coatings with low thermal conductivity were obtained using three different particle size distributions as starting powder: nano-, submicron- and bimodal submicron/nano-sized particles. On ...
Environmental comparison of indoor floor coverings
(Elsevier, 2019)
Appropriate selection of construction materials plays a major role in a building's sustainable profile. The studysets out a comparative life cycle assessment of indoorflooring systems of different nature. Theflooring ...
Effect of the CuO addition on a Sb-doped SnO2 ceramic electrode applied to the removal of Norfloxacin in chloride media by electro-oxidation
(Elsevier, 2020-06)
Norfloxacin is employed as in veterinary and human medicine against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Due to the ineffective treatment at the wastewater treatment plants it becomes an emergent pollutant. Electro-oxidation ...
Quartz dustiness: A key factor in controlling exposure to crystalline silica in the workplace
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
The classification of Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) as carcinogenic for humans has drawn greater attention to crystalline silica exposure in the workplace in recent years, leading to recommendations by safety and ...
Optimization of the technologycal properties of porcelain tile bodies containing rice straw ash using the deseign of experiments methodology
(Elsevier, 2016-11)
This study examines the effects of replacing fluxing and filler materials with rice straw ash (RSA) in manufacturing porcelain stoneware tile, using the design of experiments (DOE) methodology. The results of the ...
Sintering of raw glazes for floor and porcelain tiles: A non-isothermal kinetic model
(Elsevier, 2016-11)
New fritless glaze compositions have been developed for floor and porcelain tiles from a new boron raw material obtained by calcination. The complexity of this type of composition also translates into complex behaviour ...
Thermal conductivity of traditional ceramics. Part I: Influence of bulk density and firing temperature
(Elsevier, 2010)
The thermal conductivity of traditional ceramics is known to be a function of their porosity or bulk density. However, the scatter in the thermal conductivity-bulk density data in certain studies, particularly when data ...
Porcelain tile: Almost 30 years of steady scientific-technological evolution
(Elsevier, 2010)
Despite the great global significance of porcelain tile manufacture, the scientific activity in porcelain tile's almost 30-year existence does not match the importance of the business. Although scientific output has been ...
Calcium carbonate thermal decomposition in white-body wall tile during firing. I. Kinetic study
(Elsevier, 2010)
This study examines the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate, contained in disk-shaped test pieces formed from a mixture of raw materials of a similar composition and characteristics to those of the mixtures customarily ...
Obtainment of bactericidal inkjet inks based on Ag-nanocomposites
(German Ceramic Society, 2013)
In this study, ceramic inks were formulated that are able to develop bactericidal properties and are appropriate for application by inkjet printing. These inks contain silver nanocomposites and are applied on to unfired ...
