    Micrograded ceramic-metal composites
    2019 - RESTIVO, THOMAZ A.G.; BECCARI, RAFAEL F.; PADILHA, WELLINGTON R.; DURAZZO, MICHELANGELO; TELLES, VICTOR B.; COLETI, JORGE; YAMAGATA, CHIEKO; SILVA, ANTONIO C. da; SUZUKI, EDUARDO; TENORIO, JORGE A.S.; MELLO-CASTANHO, SONIA R.H.
    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.

    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
