A conceptually new strategy is based on the feasibility of solubilisation of polyethyl methacrylate (PEMA) in isopropanol using 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (GRA) and rhamnolipids (RLP) as solubilising agents. This approach offers benefits for biomedical applications by avoiding the use of traditional toxic solvents for PEMA dissolution. The ability to obtain concentrated solutions of high molecular mass polymer is a crucial factor for the development of a dip coating method. Potentiodynamic and impedance spectroscopy studies indicate that PEMA films provide corrosion protection of stainless steel in 3% NaCl solutions. The use of GRA facilitates the fabrication of films with improved protective properties. PEMA films are obtained as monolayers or multilayers of controlled film mass. Another important finding is a good dispersion of chemically inert microdiamond and nanodiamond particles using GRA and RLP. For the first time composite PEMA-diamond films are obtained using GRA and RLP as solubilising agents for PEMA and dispersing agents for diamonds in isopropanol solvent. The detailed analysis of film microstructures provides an insight into the influence of chemical structure of GRA and RLP on their interactions with PEMA and diamonds. Moreover, microstructure analysis indicates that such interactions are important for preventing defects in the composite films. The benefits of steroid-like dispersants are discussed. Composite films are obtained as monolayers with different diamond content or PEMA-diamond multilayers of different composition and film mass. The method represents a versatile strategy for the fabrication of alternating PEMA/PEMA-diamond multilayers. The benefits of the obtained microstructures for biomedical applications are discussed. The approach developed in this investigation opens an avenue for the fabrication of other polymer coatings containing various functional materials.

The scale of the operations and the abrasive nature of the ore results in very aggressive wear conditions. The high levels of abrasive and impact wear can lead to equipment reliability issues, with associated costs and lost production. As such, it is common to augment the durability of mining components by the application of wear-resistant materials. For critical equipment tungsten carbide-based composite overlays are commonly selected to improve reliability and extend service life. The performance of the overlay is very much dependent on the service conditions. This paper will describe how the selection of tungsten carbide-type can determine the performance of a composite overlay in a range of abrasive and impact wear conditions. The paper will demonstrate how the effective selection of the composite to match the expected service conditions can improve the durability of mining equipment.","PeriodicalId":7224,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Applied Ceramics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83019915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, sub-micron particles were synthesised through the Pechini and modified Pechini sol–gel methods. Phase composition was confirmed via X-ray diffraction. Particle growth during calcination of the nanoparticles at different temperatures (650°C, 750°C, 850°C) and times (between 1 and 24 h) was measured via laser diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The modified Pechini method displayed evidence of smaller particle sizes and greater agglomeration.

Therefore, three groups of samples were prepared: (i) monolithic alumina (Al2O3); (ii) composite alumina–zirconia (Al2O3–ZrO2) containing 99 wt-% Al2O3 and 1 wt-% ZrO2 and (iii) composite alumina–zirconia (Al2O3–ZrO2) containing 90 wt-% Al2O3 and 10 wt-% ZrO2. Erosion mechanisms of all prepared ceramic samples were evaluated by the volume erosion rate ( , mm3·g–1). Obtained results were compared with the analytical Wiederhorn and Evans equations. The mechanical properties (hardness and fracture toughness) of prepared ceramic samples were compared with their under the above-mentioned conditions. It was found that the erosion of monolithic and composite ceramics increased with the increase of the impact angle. Volume erosion rate was highest at an impact angle of 90° and amounts to 115 mm3·g–1 with SiC, and 12 mm3·g–1 with SiO2 erodent particles for monolithic alumina ceramics, 77 mm3·g–1 with SiC, and 8 mm3·g–1 with SiO2 erodent particles for ceramics with the addition of 1 wt-% of ZrO2, and 61 mm3·g–1 with SiC, and 7 mm3·g–1 with SiO2 erodent particles for ceramics with the addition of 10 wt-% of ZrO2. Therefore, it can be concluded that the erosion resistance of monolithic Al2O3 increases with the increasing amount of ZrO2 in the composite Al2O3-ZrO2 ceramics, thus erosion resistance can be improved with the addition of ZrO2.","PeriodicalId":7224,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Applied Ceramics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78643074","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since preliminary material screening tests revealed that Lu2Si2O7 phase has superior resistance against water vapour corrosion, the development was carried out mainly on EBC's based on this phase.

In this study, 90%–95% of pores were reduced with the same sintering parameters by replacing CS with the cutting-edge Alumina-Graphite Powder Bath (AGPB) sintering method. Alumina-Zirconia-CNT(AZC) composites were fabricated using both AGPB and CS methods. The ceramic samples were surrounded by alumina-graphite powder particles in the AGPB method, which provided indirect homogeneous heating to the samples. This powder bath setup changed convection-radiation heat to conduction heat and produced sintered product with pore-free microstructures. The hardness of the AGPB-AZC composite was 43% higher than the CS-AZC, demonstrating the exponential property enhancement caused by cutting-edge AGPB sintering. The AGPB-AZC FESEM investigation revealed the formation of a homogenous microstructure with minimum pores, which eventually increased the hardness.","PeriodicalId":7224,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Applied Ceramics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78904524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

XRD of BCP revealed the coexistence of secondary phases like β-TCP and α-TCP along with HA upon sintering at different temperatures. Furthermore, the SEM and EDS opened well-sintered uniaxial grains and the presence of trace elements like Fe, Mg, Si, and Na. The specimens sintered at 1100°C showed the highest compression strength of 56.8 MPa due to MgO at the grain boundaries, which plays an important role in grain boundary diffusion.
