The thermal erosion of a set of bulk fully dense and 10 vol% porous ZrB2-based ceramics of different composition were machined as sharp wing and tested in an air-fuel mixture flow formed by mixing air and kerosene with an oxygen content ∼5 wt%. The resulting pressure in the combustion chamber was 0.8 MPa and the flow temperature was 1500°C. Microstructural analyses upon the tests evidenced that criteria for material success include high density and high thermal conductivity, along with formation of stable compounds. These results were supported by numerical simulation. Among all tested materials, only ZrB2 - 15 vol% MoSi2 (ZM) met all the requirements and successfully survived the thermal erosion test up to 1200 sec.

Aiming towards insight into the stability of newly developed advanced ceramic membrane materials, the time-dependent deformation at elevated temperatures is particularly important, where special consideration should be given to application-relevant atmospheres. This study examines the influence of Zr4+ doping on the creep behavior of BaFeO3-δ in air and nitrogen atmospheres at temperatures between 700 ºC and 900°C under compressive stresses ranging from 20 MPa to 60 MPa. BaFeO3-δ creep investigations revealed a transition from primarily diffusive to a combination of diffusive and dislocation-based mechanisms, owing to increasing oxygen deficiencies with increasing temperatures that culminate in a low to high symmetric crystal structure transition. Zr4+ doping improved the creep resistance and altered the creep mechanism to a predominantly dislocation-based mechanism, accompanied by a transition to a cubic crystal structure. Nitrogen atmospheres negatively affected the creep resistance of BaFeO3-δ and BaFe0.9Zr0.1O3-δ, increasing the creep deformation rates for all temperature and stress levels.

The synthesis of MgAl2O4 requires high calcination temperatures which generally result in larger grain sizes and smaller specific surface areas. These factors pose challenges in achieving high-density MgAl2O4 ceramic. This study introduces an innovative approach that has successfully sintered MgAl2O4 ceramic at 1500 ℃ with MgAl2O4 powder prepared using a Non-Hydrolytic Sol-Gel (NHSG) method combined with a mechanochemical method. The sintered MgAl2O4 ceramic with 2 wt% TiCl4 doping displays an apparent porosity of only 0.09 %, a flexural strength of 183 MPa, a relative permittivity of 8.7, a quality factor of 77000 GHz, and a frequency temperature coefficient of −59.4 ppm/℃. The introduction of titanium ions causes lattice distortion and cationic vacancies, which promotes sintering and improves the mechanical and dielectric properties of the resulting ceramic. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of NHSG combined with the mechanochemical method in preparing MgAl2O4 ceramic with enhanced sintering properties.

Utilization of lunar regolith as building material to construct future lunar bases is receiving increasing attention. The sintering method does not need additional additives, but still has some restrictions. This study presents a rapid and energy-efficient strategy for sintering lunar regolith simulants (i.e., mare (CLRS-1) and highlands (SC-080)), where a domestic microwave and ceramic fiber microwave kiln performed hybrid heating for 11 and 14 minutes, respectively. The corresponding energy consumption is just 69 and 98 MJ/kg, respectively. The low melting point minerals in the simulants melt at high temperatures, causing the grains to bond to each other. The density of sintered samples reached 2.34 and 2.23 g/cm3, respectively. The mechanical and thermal properties of both samples are comparable to those of Earth-based concrete and brick, and show excellent durability in a simulated lunar surface environment, revealing a promising processing route for early lunar surface construction.

In this study, cubic xCu: BaSnO3 (x = 0, 1, 3, and 5 mol%) perovskite nanocrystals were synthesized using a hydrothermal method. The influence of Cu doping levels on the crystal structure, morphology, size, and properties was analyzed using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman, Ultraviolet-Visible Spectroscopy (UV–vis), Vibrating Sample Magnetometry (VSM), and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. Across the 1–5 % doping range, the cubic BaSnO3 structure was maintained with Cu2+ in CuO6 replacing Sn4+ in the B-site. XPS analysis confirmed the formation of oxygen vacancies due to charge imbalance, leading to a decrease in optical bandgap and an increase in ferromagnetic moment. When various contents of xCu: BaSnO3 were doped into borosilicate glass, significant impacts on the glass network, crystallization, and properties were observed. Nanocrystals (∼50 nm) transitioned from cubic to orthorhombic phase beyond 3 mol% doping, modifying the glass network by converting BO3 to BO4, AlO4 to AlO6, and CuO6 to CuO4. This phase change endowed the glass's strong ferromagnetic moment and absorption due to the t2 g→eg transitions of Cu2+ in CuO6, and reduced the optical bandgap from 3.16 to 2.2 eV. The glass also exhibited improved Vickers hardness (475 HV) and a high Verdet constant of 0.174 min/G·cm due to network modifications. Glass also shows a distinct red emission at 596 nm with a 160 µs lifetime and good thermal stability, while doping levels above 3 % resulted in emission quenching. The optical nonlinear absorption coefficient and nonlinear susceptibility increased with higher doping levels, reaching huge values of α3: 5.12×10−10 m/W and χ(3): 7.52×10−10 esu, indicating potential for self-focusing applications. The increased polarizability also resulted in a high dielectric constant (18) and a large P-E loop of glasses which are promising for advanced photonics devices.

This paper focuses on the kinetics and the mechanism of oxidation (at 1650°C) of the ceramics based on the (Hf0.8Ta0.2)B2, β-SiC and LaF3 (0 and 3.5 wt%) phases fabricated by a combination of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) and hot pressing (HP). The physicomechanical and thermophysical properties of the ceramics were determined. The effect of doping with lanthanum on the kinetics and mechanism of oxidation as well as the structural and morphological features of the resulting oxide layers after efficiency of their protective action was analyzed. The evolutionary changes in the structure were studied: the formation of a three-layered heterogeneous oxide film, modification of borosilicate glass with Hf4+, Ta5+ and La3+ cations, formation of Hf4+-doped La1/3TaO3 globules followed by their growth via the Ostwald ripening mechanism, generation and oxidation of the secondary TaB2 phase, significant reduction of the content of the HfSiO4 phase, etc. Doping the ceramics with lanthanum was shown to exhibit a negative effect on high-temperature oxidation resistance, and the main reasons for that were analyzed.

PZT ceramic is widely used as sensors, especially in underwater applications like sound navigation and ranging(SONAR), due to its piezoelectric properties. However, single-phase PZT ceramics have poor hydrostatic piezoelectric properties, leading to the development of porous PZT and PZT-polymer composites. This study enhanced the hydrostatic figure of merit(HFOM) value by incorporating porous PZT into a 1–3 type composite. Finite element analysis and the ceramic injection molding(CIM) method were used for optimal design and fabrication. PZflex simulation tool derived the composite's piezoelectric properties, revealing that increased porosity reduced d33 and d31 but increased HFOM. The aspect ratio of PZT rods was selected by calculating the coupling factor. The fabricated composite had a higher HFOM value (4050(10–15 Pa) at 12 % porosity) than dense 1–3 type PZT-polymer composites. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of finite element analysis and CIM in designing high-performance piezoelectric composites, with potential for various future applications.

<110>c-oriented 0.85(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3-0.15BaTiO3 + x wt%MnO2 (x = 0 – 0.5) single crystals were fabricated by a solid-state crystal growth method, and the effect of the MnO2 content on crystal growth and electric properties were investigated. Single crystals with a size of about 2 mm×3 mm×0.4 mm were obtained at x = 0 – 0.1. The temperature dependence of the dielectric properties of the single crystals at x = 0 – 0.1 revealed depolarization temperatures of 218 – 220 ˚C and the temperatures of the maximum dielectric constant of 254 – 261 ˚C. At x = 0.1, a ferroelectric polarization – electric field loop and a strain – electric field curve were observed, and the piezoelectric constant d33 was 118 pC/N. The d33 value was larger than to that of reported <110>c-oriented ceramics but smaller than <001>c-oriented ceramics, which suggested that 0.85(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3-0.15BaTiO3 was an extender ferroelectric material.

BaAl2Si2O8 microwave dielectric ceramics possess dielectric properties of low permittivity (εr) and low loss, coupled with low synthesis cost, making them promising for commercialization. However, the hexagonal structure undergoes high-temperature phase transitions that deteriorate thermal shock resistance and durability, hindering its practical use. In this work, we report temperature-stable BaAl2Si2O8-Ba3V2O8 low temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC). The combination of Ba3V2O8 and G9 glass achieved a near-zero τf and a thermal expansion coefficient of ∼ 8.5 ppm/℃, significantly enhancing the temperature stability of BaAl2Si2O8 ceramics. By employing ion substitution and enhancing lattice disorder, the components of G9 glass were strategically designed to successfully induce hexagonal-to-monoclinic transformation of BaAl2Si2O8 phase. The dielectric properties of 0.5BaAl2Si2O8-0.5Ba3V2O8-9 wt% G9 sintered at 900 ℃ were εr ∼9, Q×f ∼22,000 GHz and τf ∼ +1.9 ppm/℃. Good chemical compatibility with silver powders was confirmed by further investigation of the co-firing behavior. This work provides attractive candidate for BaAl2Si2O8-based LTCCs and an available approach for modifying BaAl2Si2O8 ceramics.
