Photocatalysts are employed in several industry segments and chemical processes. Generally, the smaller the particle size, the greater it is the surface area, improving reaction rate. It is often ...

While the method of flash sintering can reduce the temperatures and time required to process ceramics in comparison with traditional methods, the technique often ...

Abstract: Flash sintering was a fabulous method to sinter ceramics in several seconds with lower furnace temperature. By applying bisectional electrode distributions and the two-stage sintering method ...

The fabrication of silver joints was done using the pressureless sintering technology to suit the demand of high-reliability schottky barrier diodes (SBD). Porosity of 10.6% and shear strength of 39.6 ...

Silicon nitride ceramics are widely used in structural applications because they have low density yet are very tough. Their damage tolerance is based upon an interlocking microstructure of elongated ...

Abstract: Intelligent detection of defects in the sintering trolley grate bars is crucial to ensure the smooth operation of the sintering process and enhance sintering production efficiency. However, ...
