In this research, the fabrication of transparent Alumina was done by spark plasma sintering (SPS). Two types alpha and gamma powders with particle size 200 50 nm were used, respectively. The assisted materials used in research magnesium nitrate lanthanum nitrate, each which 100 ppm using a chemical precipitation process. Calcination performed at 800°C resulting subjected to SPS 1500 °C rate °C/...

PURPOSE The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the flexural strength of the joint between glass-infiltrated alumina frames and the experimental adjusting agent (MA modifier) that contains alumina and magnesia. METHODS A commercially available adjusting agent (Optimizer), a slurry of alumina powder (Alumina modifier), and a bulk specimen (joint-free alumina) were used as controls. Be...

in the present investigation surface modification of silica nanoparticles by alumina was carried out by sol-gel process. fourier transform infrared (ftir) and x-ray fluorescence (xrf) confirmed the synthesis of silica and the surface modification as alumina is anchored to silica surface. field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem) investigation...

The present study investigates the relationships and parameter interactions between three controllable variables (lamp current, pulse frequency and air pressure) on hole taper in micro-drilling operations, in order to assess the effect of the different process parameters and also material properties in laser micro-drilling operations. Micro-drilling experiments have been conducted for Gamma-Tit...

The hydride gas of phosphine (PH3) is commonly used for semiconductor and optoelectronic industries. The local scrubbers must immediately abate it because of its high toxicity. In this study, copper (Cu) loaded on the sol-gel-derived gamma-alumina (Al2O3) adsorbents are prepared and tested to investigate the possibility of PH3 removal and sorbent regeneration. Test results showed that during th...

Porous alumina films had been fabricated by anodizing from aluminum films after an electropolishing procedure. Alumina stripes without pores can be distinguished on the surface of the porous alumina films. The width of the alumina stripes increases proportionally with the anodizing voltage. And the pores tend to be initiated close to the alumina stripes. These phenomena can be ascribed to the e...
