FRACTURE BEHAVIOR OF A Si3N4-BN FIBROUS MONOLITH CERAMIC

Heat Storage Performance of a Honeycomb Ceramic Monolith

Honeycomb ceramic is the key component of the regenerative system. The three-dimensional numerical model has been established for thermal process in honeycomb regenerator. The numerical simulation was performed using FLUENT, a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, to compare simulation results to the test data. The regenerative process of a honeycomb ceramic regenerator was simula...

Ceramic-On-Ceramic Joints: A Suitable Alternative Material Combination?

Ceramic material from basaltic tuffs

The possibility to obtain a cheap ceramic material based on 50 wt % basaltic tuffs and 50 wt % industrial clays was studied. The tuffs were characterized by optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis. It was shown that this material is appropriate for the ceramic industry: it is easy for milling and is characterized by low liquidus temperature. The sintering behavio...

The consequences of chirality in crowded arenes--macromolecular helicity, hierarchical ordering, and directed assembly.

Complex three-dimensional superstructures with useful properties[1] can be created easily by reversibly assembling functionalized small molecules through hydrogen bonding and overlap.[2] Examples are 1a and 1b (Figure 1a), which self-assemble through head-to-tail amide hydrogen bonds into arrays of stacked columns (Figure 1b, c).[3] In these molecules, the dodecyl ether substituents provide a l...
