Abstract: Nano-structural synthesized materials can be fabricated utilizing intensive milling after combustion synthesis. The Al2O3-TiB2 ceramic composite has been synthesized by aluminothermic reactions between Al, Ti (TiO2), and B (B2O3 or H3BO3). Boric acid (H3BO3) is less expensive than boron oxide, and after being dehydrated at 200°C, boron oxide will be obtained. In this study, Al, TiO2, ...

To understand the influence of slag chemistry on carbonation resistance slag-rich cement, this paper explored characteristics blended cement systems with different Al2O3 contents in through accelerated test. Irrespective chemistry, three main CO2 binding phases were identified during test, i.e. carbonated Ca-Al AFm (amorphous or nano-crystalline), hydrotalcite-like phase, and calcium carbonate ...

Al2O3 doped Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 ~BST! thin films, with different Al2O3 contents, were deposited on ~100! LaAlO3 substrates by the pulsed laser deposition technique to develop agile thin films for tunable microwave device applications. The dielectric properties of Al2O3 doped BST films were determined with a nondestructive dual resonator near 7.7 GHz. We demonstrated that the Al2O3 doping plays a sig...

Fibre-reinforced polymer composite has many uses in structural components that required high strength, stiffness, and damping capacity. Cross quasi-laminated epoxy composites with without nano Al2O3 were used this investigation to determine flexural modulus, natural frequency, ratio, mode shapes by using analytical, experimental, numerical (ANSYS) methods. It was demonstrated adding 2 % improve...

Blue nano pigments of CoAl2O4 were successfully prepared by polyol method. Two different groups of materials containing chloride and acetate compounds were used to synthesis the nano pigments. The nano pigments were calcinated at 1100 °C. The CoAl2O4 nano pigments were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), dynamic li...

The morphological and microstructural changes during mechanical milling of Al powder mixed with 2.5, 5 and 10 wt.% Al2O3 particles were studied. The milling was performed in a planetary ball mill for various times up to 20 h. The produced composite powders were investigated using X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD) to elucidate the role of particle size, secondary phase content and milling time on ...
