Micrograded ceramic-metal composites

The article shows new designed cermets and processes concerning primary to applications as thermal insulation materials with low emissivity. A new projected microstructure was obtained where dense regions (micropellets) rest inside the main porous pellet. The feature resembles a frozen hypercube, therefore such architecture is called hyper-pellet/ cermet. The processing method to obtain the hyper-cermet is based on sequential tape castings and sintering techniques. Ni-zirconia lamellae were prepared by a special mechanochemical process followed by sintering, which remain inside the main pellets as a dense region. The whole pellet is turned to be porous by employing pore-forming additives. All the constituents and porosity shapes are aligned along the disc/ flake planes. Thermal conductivity is estimated for the materials up to 800 °C by a flash diffusivimeter. Ceramographic analyses show graded density regions with directional constituents and pores. Applications of such materials are foreseen as temperature insulation materials and thermal radiation shields.
Glass ceramic sealants belonging to BAS (BaO-Alsub(2)Osub(3)-SiOsub(2) ternary system modified with Bsub(2)Osub(3) addition

Four compositions in the BaO–Al2O3–SiO2 system modified with B2O3 were investigated with regard to their use as glassy seals in anode supported SOFC or iT-SOFC. The glassy system studied contains varying percentages of SiO2, Al2O3, B2O3, and high content of BaO as modifier (67–74%-wt). Their glass transition (Tg) and maximum densification point lies between 630 and 680 ◦C, and 734 ◦C to 828 ◦C, respectively. The viscosities of the four glasses are situated between 107 to 109.5 Pa.s, in the sealing range (730–830 ◦C). Heat treatment at 850 ◦C, revealed crystalline phases identified as BaAl2Si2O8 (hexacelsian) and BaSiO3. The thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) of the obtained glasses (8.8–10.5 ppm/K) was comparable to zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte, and shows chemical compatibility and high characteristic bond strength (up to 33 ± 7 MPa). The compositions with higher BaO contentin the system studied seem to be good candidates for iT-SOFC sealant application.
Bio-prototyping and thermoluminescence response of cellular rare earth ceramics
2016 - SANTOS, S.C.; YAMAGATA, C.; CAMPOS, L.L.; MELLO CASTANHO, S.R.H.
The use of renewable materials is essential toward green economy. Vegetable structures are abundant, exhibit complex hierarchically built shape and an architecture that is promising to form functional materials. In this work using a mixture of rare earth oxides, which contain around 57 wt% yttrium oxide, cellular ceramics by bio-prototyping from the vegetable sponge Luffa cylindrica were produced and the thermoluminescence response was evaluated. By colloidal processing aqueous suspensions with 25 vol% solids content, pH 10, 1 wt% deffloculant and 0.2 wt% binder exhibited shear thinning behavior and apparent viscosity suitable for replica method. By thermal treatment at 1600 ◦C for 2 h in air biomorphic rare earth ceramics with dense microstructure and reticulated architecture were produced.
