Sequential deposition of copper/alumina composites

Ceramic-metal composites have drawn considerable interest due to their mechanical, thermal and wear-resistant capabilities. High temperature processing of these materials when they are employed in electronic circuitry is not desirable, since elevated temperatures can irreversibly affect physical properties of the produced components. Wet chemical methods have potential advantages because they d...

Microseparation and stripe wear in alumina-on-alumina hip implants.

The combination of materials that still has highest wear resistance for total hip replacement is ceramic-on-ceramic. However, brittleness is a major concern for ceramics: in vivo and in vitro studies on ceramic hip prostheses correlate microseparation with hip noise, ceramic wear, or ceramic liner damage. Ceramic microseparation can lead to edge load, ceramic head wear, and squeaking. The aim o...

Investigation on Mechanism of Cordierite Formation from Nano Silica-Magnesium chloride-Reactive Alumina

Cordierite ceramics are used as refractory materials and kiln furnaces tools due to their very low coefficient of thermal expansion, high corrosion resistance and excellent thermal shock resistance. The aim of the present work was to synthesis of cordierite with raw materials including nano silica, magnesium chloride and reactive alumina. The synthesis procedure is done at solid state. Mechanis...
