Low-temperature densification of ceramics and cermets by the intermediary stage activated sintering method
2018 - RESTIVO, THOMAZ A.G.; DURAZZO, MICHELANGELO; MELLO-CASTANHO, SONIA R.H. de; MOREIRA, ANA C.; GRACIANO, SERGIO; TELLES, VICTOR B.; TENORIO, JORGE A.S.
The article explores new concepts in order to promote ceramic and cermet materials sintering at lower temperatures between 1200 and 1300 C. The principle of the new process method called intermediary stage activated sintering (ISAS) involves the preparation of the ceramic powder with dispersed doping agents, such as nanotubes and fibers, which shape the pore structure at pressed pellets with stable interconnected thin cylinders between the grains. This feature resembles and extends the condition found during the intermediary stage sintering, which enhances the ions diffusion rate along tubular pores to increase shrinkage. Carbon nanotubes (CNT) and nanofibers are homogenized into cubic zirconia and alumina in amounts ranging from 1 to 10 vol% at high-energy milling devices and ultrasound disruptor under ethanol media. Ni, Cu and Mo/MoO3 can be also added to provide tubular channel filling. Sintering of uniaxially pressed pellets is carried out in a dilatometer and tubular furnaces at 1200/1300 C under air, argon and controlled oxygen partial pressure atmospheres. TG/DTA/MS analyses of sample pellets reveal the oxidation and gas release temperature and duration. The results demonstrate the ISAS process concept is valid since it further increases the ceramic final density by 8% of the theoretical density at 1200 C, leading to close the porosity at 1300 C, compared to 1500–1600 C temperatures at conventional process. Short CNT and cellulose nanofiber were found to be the best additives in this sense.
Processing, microstructure and thermoluminescence response of biomorphic yttrium oxide ceramics
2016 - SANTOS, S.C.; YAMAGATA, C.; CAMPOS, L.L.; MELLO-CASTANHO, S.R.H.
The present work reports a fast-direct bio-prototyping process using Luffa Cylindrica vegetable sponge to produce biomorphic yttrium oxide ceramics with reticulated-porous architecture and thermoluminescence response. Processing parameters as rheology of yttrium oxide suspensions, bio-template surface treatment and thermal decomposition of bio-template were investigated. Shear thinning suspensions of 30 vol% yttrium oxide with apparent viscosity of 243mPa.s provided a successful impregnation of samples, whereby bio-templates with smooth ceramic layer and hierarchical reticulated architecture were formed. By thermal treatment at 1600 degrees C for 2 h biomorphic yttrium oxide ceramics with porous microstructure and TL response at 150 degrees C and lambda=550 nm were produced. The proposed fast direct bio-prototyping process is suitable for the production of ceramic components with complex shape and demonstrates potential for general applicability to any bio-template.

High chemical stability of stoneware tiles containing waste metals
2010 - REINOSA, J.J.; SILVA, A.C.; RUBIO-MARCOS, F.; MELLO CASTANHO, S.R.H.; MOYA, J.S.; FERNANDEZ, J.F.
Stoneware tiles were produced by the incorporation of galvanic waste to industrial compositions that were processed from kaolinitic clay, feldspar, quartz and recycled domestic glass. The galvanic waste required a calcination step to eliminate the gas forming species prior to its incorporation into industrial processes and crystalline phases were formed. After that, the effective incorporation of metals from the galvanic waste was attained through the formation and the refinement of crystalline phases that acted as pigments. During the fast firing the calcined galvanic waste only got partially dissolved in the liquid phase that developed in spinel phase nanocrystals. The followed procedure allowed to effective immobilization of up to 10 wt% of waste with heavy metals in a porcelain stoneware that satisfy both the mechanical and the chemical standards required to massively commercialize such a product
